It is a mid-range property offering multiple accommodation types to suit different budgets: Pool and Banda Bungalows, and Luxury Glamping Safari Accommodations with en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning. A swimming pool with sun terrace, lounge bar, restaurant and information desk for last-minute safari bookings complete the facilities.
