Marketing

When I fell in love with Tanzania in 2010, I knew I would do something interesting here. Sakila Sunrise Lodge is the result of my passion for the country and its people; a chance to develop something unique, at the same time supporting the local community economically.

Welcome to my home!

Architect

Sakila Sunrise was conceived by brilliant Spanish architect and urban planner Jaime Espinosa with degrees from Polytechnic, Madrid and Lund University, Sweden. Using bamboo and incorporating self sustainable systems for water and power, Sakila Sunrise is the first fully sustainable lodge in Tanzania according to Responsible Tourism, Tanzania.
