What to Expect

Facilities

The indoor space features a spacious dining area with generous seating, offering panoramic views of the veranda and plain, creating an ideal setting for game spotting during meals. The bar is well-stocked with a diverse selection of soft drinks and spirits, and the lounge, furnished with comfortable sofas, provides a relaxing space to unwind.

The curio shop, brimming with items sourced from the region, is a perfect spot to acquire souvenirs or presents for your loved ones, all while supporting our regional suppliers and their families. Our inventory includes goods from local communities and fair-trade providers, allowing you to positively impact these underserved communities with every purchase!

A crystal-clear swimming pool invites you in in the heat of the day with loungers to relax on, or choose to sit on the viewing decks and watch the game as they go about their lives on the plain or at the waterhole. The verandas give ample space to enjoy the outdoors on, whether in the day or at night, allowing 24-hour viewing of the wildlife.
