Beautifully decorated and well-facilitated suites are adorned with safari styles and world-class amenities that not only echo the wilderness surroundings but provide luxurious living spaces. 

The region is well-known for hosting private game reserves as they offer more-sought after diverse terrains including rivers and dense woodlands, that can be enjoyed in an intimate camp setting. This accommodation is ideal for groups or families of wildlife explorers looking to experience an exclusive and luxurious safari getaway. Wildlife enthusiasts from around the globe boast of the area's biodiversity.

General Facilities

Waterbuck Private Camp boasts a variety of exclusive-use facilities. You'll enjoy unfettered access to a private game vehicle, tracker, and game ranger, who are ready to tailor a wilderness adventure to your specifications. Speak to your friendly host about booking a massage treatment at the Kings Camp Spa; alternatively, they can arrange for a massage therapist to come to the camp and be ready for you upon returning from a thrilling game drive.

An ideal follow-up is to slip on your bather and lounge next to the pool, soaking in some sun with an occasional dip in the cool waters. The viewing deck is also a great spot for some light reading in between spotting animals in the dry riverbed. Wi-Fi is available throughout the villa, ensuring you stay connected during your stay.
