Each of the twelve canvas pavilions is shaded by tall acacia trees and all are within sight of the well-frequented water hole. They are unashamedly luxurious and exquisitely furnished but still close enough to nature to permit an exciting night under canvas. The tents feature a spacious open plan arrangement with comfortable king or twin beds, campaign chairs and plush sofas; each also boasts an en-suite bathroom with both indoor and outdoor shower for that extra bit of luxury. Sip cocktails or enjoy scrumptious dinners on your own private veranda and watch the waterhole (which regularly draws lions, leopards and resident bull elephants) while your own personal attendant caters for your every need. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available in guests' tents.
