Two Cities. One Mission: Southern Hospitality.
Jinka Resorts was founded in 2004 GC
To bridge the gap between authentic hospitality and professional, reliable service — in cities that travellers love, but are often underserved.
Founded with a passion for authentic hospitality, Jinka Resorts offers welcoming stays and unforgettable experiences deep in Southern Ethiopia. We started with one branch in Jinka, serving travelers exploring the Omo Valley. As we grew.we opened our second location in Arba Minch — combining lakeside views with conference-grade facilities in 2021.
Today, we’re proud to serve both cities with a shared mission:
We combine modern comfort with local culture to create safe, reliable places to rest, meet, and explore.
