Luxury Tented Accommodation
Five-Star Luxury Tented Accommodation Close To Nature
The notion of luxury tented accommodation does not fill everybody with a sense of wonder, because, frankly, how luxurious can tent living be and why on earth would you want to put up with the disadvantages and inconvenience? After all, why would you want to live in a tent in the Bushveld if it is just so much easier presenting yourself to the lions and other predators on a silver platter with the requisite seasoning? Surely, one has to be out of one's mind to live in a tent in the Bushveld?
Luxury Accommodation in a Tent?
We could forgive you for thinking luxury tented accommodation is just a myth, as you inadvertently start itching at the thought of the thorough going-over the mosquitoes gave you the last time you attempted a camping expedition with the family. However, be prepared to be surprised when we give you a glimpse of our version of a luxury tent experience and you may find yourself re-assessing what tented living is all about, done this way.
Luxury tented accommodation allows you to add true comfort and an unmistakable style to your African experience and our six tented camps are within walking distance of the main lodge. They are:
- Rafiki (which means “friend”)
- Matumba (“magic potion”)
- Kifu (“desire”)
- Safiri (“journey”)
- Madiba (“old man”) and
- Utambo (“space”)
Unlike any tent you have seen these sturdy log and timber tents under thatch are equipped and furnished to full five-star standards, just like our luxury suites up at the main lodge complex. You will surely stand in awe at all the space, the expensive furniture, the top quality linen and bedding and the sounds and aromas of nature. Each tent is totally private, including an outside shower for two and a sun deck where you can sip a drink while you watch the African wildlife all around.
Appointments
As we have mentioned earlier, our luxury tented accommodation features all the appointments found in our luxury suites and over and above the things already mentioned, also include:

The mistrial Victorian en-suite bathrooms feature copper and brass fittings complementing the ball and claw bathtub and the personalised His & Hers wash basins.
Only in Africa
Such a unique luxury tented accommodation concept could only have originated in Africa and thank goodness that our weather is so conducive to such outings and our abundant wildlife such an ample reward for our tented guests. They have an opportunity to get even closer to the gemsbuck, blesbuck, kudu, impala, ostrich, caracal, red hartebeest, blue wildebeest, zebra, eland, civet cat, giraffe and cheetah that roam our Bushveld region.
