A Lakeside
Retreat

Spa Shallum sits quietly on the shore of Lake Kivu, a hideaway between hills, water and sky. Tucked into the green folds of Karongi in Rwanda's Western Province, this intimate retreat offers a rare escape from the ordinary and the everyday.

This lakeside hotel brings together restful rooms, an unhurried spa and warm Rwandan hospitality. The retreat invites a return to a simpler, gentler rhythm, where guests can wake to the soft glow of sunrise over the water, breakfast on the terrace and feel deeply connected to the lake.

From the cool stillness of the spa to long afternoons under the umbrellas, every corner is shaped to feel handmade, a place that remembers your name and keeps a quiet table by the water just for you.
