Living and working in Abuja offers great career opportunities, but the non-stop pace — high-stakes meetings, crowded traffic corridors in Wuse and Central Area, and exorbitant hotel prices — inevitably takes its toll. Every resident needs a sanctuary where they can unwind, refresh, and reconnect without enduring a long, stressful road trip or expensive flights.
The Ivy Pergola Sun Terrace — Peaceful poolside relaxation just 35 minutes from Abuja CBD.
That perfect sanctuary exists just 35 minutes northwest of the capital: Kelvin Cameo Resort Hotel & Suites in Kwamba, Suleja. Offering the serene ambiance of an exotic country retreat combined with full corporate-grade amenities, it has become Abuja’s best-kept staycation secret.
The 35-Minute Scenic Drive Past Zuma Rock
Your getaway begins the moment you leave the Federal Capital Territory behind. Driving past the magnificent monolith of Zuma Rock on the smooth, dual-carriage highway, the stress of city deadlines melts away. Turning smoothly toward Kwamba along Maje-Minna Road, you arrive at the imposing gates of Kelvin Cameo Resort opposite Suleiman Barau Technical College.
