AMAZING VIEWS

safari style accommodations

The 12 Deluxe Rooms have air conditioning, a bonus in what can be a humid climate. The Honeymoon Suite is in a private corner of camp, furthest from the main lodge and next to a waterhole often frequented by elephants. It also features a romantic, king-size four-poster bed. For a more safari-style, romantic ambience, we also suggest that honeymooners stay in one of Mweya’s luxury tents with their fully equipped en suite bathrooms and lovely wooden terrace overlooking the Kazinga Channel. The Family Cottages, Queen and Presidential Cottages offer a quality living experience. These two and three bedroom, air-conditioned cottages feature living areas, wooden floors, and spacious wooden decks with splendid views of the channel, lakes and distant mountains. Some are equipped with a small kitchenette and a dining area.
