The Doli Lodge (Doli means “elephant” in the Sango language) opened in 1996. It was entirely renewed and tastefully redecorated in 2019.

This hotel complex is located on the wooded banks of the Sangha River. It consists of several wooden buildings, most raised on stilts. Each bungalow has a wide terrace with a view of the Sangha. In each unit, you will find all the necessary comforts, even hot water from solar energy, so you can rest and spend a pleasurable moment after your activities in the Reserve.

It is easy to observe monkeys and birds in the hotel garden. The sound of the African bush and the fantastic wildlife surrounding every visitor are what make the stay an unforgettable experience.

The Doli Lodge has four two-bedroom bungalows available, built from local materials and raised on stilts. Each bungalow has a wide terrace with a view of the Sangha River. The open dining room dominates the large river.
