Asilia Jabali Ridge

The largest park in Tanzania is also its least visited. And that’s the appeal of Asilia Jabali Ridge, a retreat in the heart of Ruaha National Park, which is home to elephants, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, and 10 percent of the world’s lion population. The eight suites, tucked behind large boulders near the Mwagusi River, all have sprawling verandas that face the baobab tree–studded landscape. From $788.
