A comfortable mix of seclusion and intimacy with private tented rooms that open onto a lush lawn and the sprawling river opposite the National Park. Each tent, although basic, has its own patio, en suite bathroom, twin beds and roll-up sides and front. There are two river suites, safari tents on a floating deck on the river and the three 'land suites', which are on dry land and overlook the river instead of being on the actual water.
Decorated with eclectic and original African artefacts, the living area is a large thatched lapa that opens out onto the lawn and river. A sun deck hovers above the water on stilts offering a panoramic view of the river. Picnic-bench tables in the buffet restaurant are made from slabs of teak and the lounge and bar area have comfortable cane chairs.
What you see is what you get and bar the incredible view and setting, there's some left to be desired. If you're all about the location and the wildlife offerings nearby, then we suppose one could overlook the finer details for ease to visit the Popa Falls or the Mahango and Buffalo Game Parks.
Boat trips; fishing; birding; game drives in the Mahango and Buffalo Game Parks & a village walk. Over 400 species of bird have been recorded in the Mahango Game Park, a few kilometres from the lodge, and in addition to the big game you might see such rarities as roan antelope, red lechwe and nyala.
Venture off on a guided day trip to Popa Falls including lunch packs or you can also self-drive to view the nearby rapids, another highlight of the area. A great place for a picnic. Spend the day on a game drive in the Buffalo Game Park and combine this with a sundowner boat cruise.
Another excellent activity is a full day of game viewing in a combination of a heli-flip, game drive and boat cruise with picnic lunch.
