The lodge consists of nine independent suites, all of which feature private plunge pools and a thatched terrace where guests can admire the passing wildlife, including the Big 5, and watch the many different species of birds fly over to the river. At night, the lack of light pollution allows for dazzling star-filled skies and guests can unwind with a refreshing beverage from your in-room bar before snuggling up in your king-sized bed and falling asleep to the sounds of the wilderness.
