Safari Lodge fits snugly into the bush located beneath a canopy of ancient trees on the edge of a dry riverbed. You’ll love the sense of adventure as you cross the swing bridges between exquisite treehouse rooms, created and inspired by local and natural materials, with elephant, bushbuck, lion and other local wildlife passing by. Your room will provide fascinating views of the animals as they stroll past on their way to the nearby watering hole.
