Accommodation

Habitat Cabins

Our indulgent, romantic ‘Habitats’ offer unexpected comfort in this wilderness location. Surrounded by breathtaking nature, these well-appointed, beautifully designed free-standing cabins offer a soothing luxury. In air-conditioned comfort, with luxury bedding, premium furnishings and en suite bathrooms, the Habitats are the perfect respite after a day of adventure in the wilderness. Habitats contain full tea and coffee facilities and a mini bar.

Safari Tents

An alternative option for those who seek a bit more adventure (needless to say, in style), this truly luxe ‘camping’ experience is a premium offering. Each fan-cooled tent is surprisingly spacious at 50m2 and comes complete with en suite bathroom. Natural colours and materials from the region have been utilised and reflect the surrounding environment, the entire experience providing a grounded closeness to the wilderness with all the romance of the ultimate hideaway. Five tents are designed to cater for families of four with bedding configuration of either a King sized double bed or twin single beds, and an additional one single bed and one trundle bed. Safari Tents contain full tea and coffee facilities and a mini bar.
