the look.
Perched over the Sand River, these sleek and seductive glass-fronted suites ooze stylish sophistication. Inspired by its natural surroundings, each thatch-roofed unit integrates the rounded rocks’ shapes, texture, and forms, blending seamlessly into the landscape. Tastefully designed with soothing palettes of creamy hues, earthy textures, and the keenest eye for detail, suites are irresistibly comfy.
Light-filled spaces feel refined, stylish, and dressed to impress, with soft organic surfaces, twisted wood, and tribal art throughout. Contemporary art adorns exposed stone walls, sculpted driftwood, and ostrich eggs decorate the tables with cowhide rugs scattered about the warm wooden floors. Oversized four-poster beds decked out in sumptuous linens and puffy duvets look out through floor-to-ceiling windows that guarantee a continuous connection to nature.
And with private game viewing decks, outdoor showers, and luscious plunge pools, there are plenty of opportunities to soak up the African outdoors.
