Cuisine and Wine
Well presented, tasty and varied cuisine is on offer, all brought to you by a passionate chef and his team in a kitchen that is second to none in the safari industry in Botswana.
For families and those interested in cooking, the interactive kitchen setup is the place to be. Watch and learn from the chef and his team as they prepare meals from the finest of Botswanean beef, bake artisanal bread and pizzas and conjure up magic with all the other ingredients.
Dining venues include; indoor and outdoor locations and should one want a private dining experience, well this can be arranged on one's private deck.
Lodge Facilities
The central guest area is something to behold, inspired by the body shape of a pangolin, the lodge twists and turns out of a small forest while being covered in timber overlays that mirror the scales of the animal. Genuinely spectacular to say the least.
