Exploring the African Village at Kuriftu A Remarkable Experience in Melka Nonno, Sheger City!
Kuriftu goes beyond just being a resort it's a model for sustainable tourism that adds real value to Ethiopia’s tourism industry.
Their newest development, the Kuriftu African Village in Melka Nonno, is a shining example. The lodge is constructed using local materials and blends beautifully with its surroundings. It respects the environment and reflects the indigenous architecture that holds deep cultural significance. More importantly, it empowers the local community offering training and jobs to residents, including women, even if they’re new to the hospitality sector.
During our visit, we had the chance to see something truly unique: 54 beautifully decorated rooms, each themed after one of Africa’s countries. It’s a powerful and practical way of saying “Welcome home” to every African and global guest who walks through their doors. With breathtaking views of Addis Ababa the political capital of Africa, exceptional service, and delicious meals, Kuriftu African Village is a destination you simply must experience.
To my fellow Ethiopians, the diaspora, and international tourists: make the trip. You won’t regret it.
The best of Kuriftu is yet to come to Arbaminch!
Cheers to a bright future for Ethiopian tourism!
