High quality bedding of only cotton and linen sheeting is used for that extra luxurious sleeping experience.Kudu, waterbuck, impala and gnu are hardly disturbed by the movement of visitors around the entertainment area, thus watching the animals arrive for a drink and lick at the saltrock is one of the most relaxing and memorable experiences of a stay. To enjoy this pleasurable experience, you have the choice of witnessing nature from the solitude of your own room, or alternatively with friends and fellow visitors from the lapa at the pool.Dinner is served on an elegant table setting where once again guests have the choice of eating intimately by themselves or together as a group with fellow guests, where new friendships are made, experiences exchanged and just a jolly friendly atmosphere prevails, where food is lovingly prepared with only fresh ingredients. The drinking hole is lit by night for nature lovers who can't seem to get enough of watching the various movements during the night.
