Karibu was founded in May 2012 by Leslie (from Corsica) and Kevin (from New Zealand) and quickly established itself as a popular choice amongst travellers with a reputation for service, style, good food and cleanliness.
With a background in managing African Safari Lodges, Luxury European Hotels and operating Safaris in Uganda, we understand what is important during your stay – and that it is the little things that count
At Karibu we love to cook and take pride in the meals that serve. Our Mediterranean-inspired menu is prepared fresh each day and with care by our team of trained chefs. We source as many fruits and vegetables as we can from our own organic garden and the trees around the grounds. Most ingredients are procured locally and combined with a few imported treats to create our menu.
Karibu’s swimming pool has been designed to blend into the natural surroundings of the indigenous garden.
Screened from the rest of the hotel by Palm, Hibiscus, Avocado and Mango trees, the pool with its constant natural rock waterfall is a welcome respite after a long flight or a busy safari. The pool even has its own seating and floating table – perfect for a sun-downer in the temperate water.
Upstairs in the hotel is the secluded Spa Room, complete with professional massage table, manicure and pedicure facilities.
Karibu’s on-call spa-therapist was trained in the UK and offers a range of massages, reflexology, manicures and pedicures.
This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).
