Six thatched suites on a quiet ridge in the bush.
Game drives twice a day, dinner under the stars, and nothing else to plan. Twenty-five minutes from Eastgate Airport, an hour from Kruger's Orpen Gate.
Stay on the ridge.
Every suite has its own deck facing the waterhole, an outdoor shower, air-conditioning and a fan. Power is backed by solar, so load-shedding doesn't reach you here.
