The overall effect of our Luxury Tented Suite is safari-esque elegance with an adventurous spirit. The heavy-duty, Meru-style tent is finished with modern touches and decor that amplifies this feeling of a refined bush experience. Let’s walk you through it. 

Sharing a raised foundation is your tent’s own spacious verandah with comfortable seating and views over the drainage line. It’s the perfect spot to unwind: Sit back and sip your second coffee or work in a birding session between game drives. 

The entrance to your suite sports a comfortable lounge area. A sleeper couch, two chairs and a coffee table are decked out on a kilim rug, elevating the rustic aesthetic. Additionally: a convenient coffee station, featuring a kettle and an array of beverage choices. 

Adorned with a mosquito net and premium quality linens, the king-sized bed (convertible into two single beds) is the irresistible focal point of the tent. The sleeper couch can also be converted into a single bed to sleep a child. 

We also know that a tidy space is conducive to your relaxation. Therefore, we thoughtfully equip our Luxury Tented Suite with storage solutions to keep your possessions organised and at hand. This includes a standing wardrobe, drawers, two luggage stands, and a small safe.

Offering convenience without sacrificing authenticity, the Luxury Tented Suite is equipped with modern amenities. A private en-suite bathroom features a flush toilet, bathtub, a couple’s basin, and an outside shower with warm, running water. 

A final note: The absence of televisions in our tents is a deliberate choice. Once you experience the cinematic surroundings or drift off to the sounds of the bush, you will understand.
