The ranch is idealy situated to break between that long drive and a long flight, the accommodation is on the comfortable side, the food is good, the wine cellar is spectacular, and the wildlife includes white rhino, the majestic eland, the gracious roan, giraffe, zebra, lion, wildebeest, and several smaller species of antelope and plains game. ROOM & SUITE TYPES: Set along the edge of the park are 16 thatched roof rooms, specially designed to ensure comfort and luxury, while remaining almost invisible from a distance, as great architectural care has been taken to blend the rooms in with the surrounding bush. Equipped with ensuite bathroom/ toilet, telephone, coffee making facilities, mini bar fridge and open terrace, the rooms' walls are adorned with paintings by the well renowned artist von Aschenborn, and tastefully laid out carpets, made from wool of the local Karakul sheep, evoke the grandeur of times long gone by. Another 4 rooms with balcony form part of the mountain lodge. Furnished with cane and wall to wall carpets, the rooms feature ensuite bathrooms with toilet/ shower, satellite TV and all other facilities of the Park rooms. A bonus of course, is the spectacular view of the African landscape below, gently rolling towards the horizon. FOOD & WINE: The restaurant, separated from the bar by a water- androck cascade, offers a variety of specialties; unusual local game dishes, creative starters and naughty desserts - all prepared with the particular touch of the settlers' cooking philosophy, and as such, according to recipes handed down from generation to generation. The "Hyena bar", carved from wood of the Camel thorn tree and located along the edge of a huge thatch roof dome, offers a noble range of ancient sherries, divine brandies and selected wines. It is pleasure pure, to sit and watch the bush rising towards the mountains, while enjoying a favourite drink - to get together prior to a meal, or afterwards, or simply to relax and to enjoy the scenery at any time. FACILITIES/ACTIVITIES: In such terrain, Okapuka is offering a multitude of activities for its' visitors to experience. Most of the tours are conducted under the guidance of experienced Rangers, who will gladly share their knowledge of Africa's Fauna and Flora. Some of the activities however, are for visitors to attempt on their own. But whatever the tour, whichever the choice, it is there to be enjoyed! |
