Haile Resort Arba Minch

Modern and spacious with stunning views out across the Great Rift Valley

Found high on a forested hillside with views across the Great Rift Valley Lakes of Chamo & Abaya, the Haile Resort Arba Minch is the most modern property in the south of Ethiopia and a great start or end point for trips through the Omo Valley.

There are 107 rooms here, making it one of the larger hotels you will find in the country, but that doesn’t in any way detract from the quality of experience that it offers. Rooms are spacious, modern and comfortable with plenty of storage space and large en-suite bathrooms. Hot running water and Wi-Fi are both reliable, certainly not something that should be taken for granted in the south! The huge lounge area has large “picture” windows which offer amazing views of the forest covered hillside and lakes and is a great spot for sundowner drinks. The excellent on-site restaurant serves a choice of international and Ethiopian cuisine, allowing visitors home comforts as well as a taste of something altogether more exotic. The sparkling swimming pool is a popular place to relax and take in the views out across the Rift Valley and is beautifully sited to take advantage of the spectacular sunsets that the area enjoys.

Arba Minch is regarded as the gateway to the south of Ethiopia, making it a great spot to spend either the first or last night of a trip through the region, whilst the quality of Haile Resort means guests can extend their stay by a night or two to allow for some rest and relaxation at the end of a busy trip.
