Mbweha is the Kiswahili word for jackal, and the naming of the lodge is representative of one's ability to find all three species of jackal in East Africa here in the Congreve Conservancy.

Mbweha Camp consists of 10 cottages built of lava stone with thatched makuti roofs, which add glamour and style to its contemporary African ambience.
