The restaurant has a fantastic view and serves a buffet breakfast. Lunch and dinner is a la carte style. In the evening two fire places keep you warm and create a romantic atmosphere. Or enjoy a pleasant outdoor dining experience under the stars overlooking Lake Elementaita.

The bar and lounge with an open fireplace is well stocked with both local and imported beverages. The friendly barman will prepare you an exotic cocktail while you relax and take in the wonderful views.
