The comfortable rooms have ceiling fans, and a room safe, and are decorated using local materials. It's a large lodge with 56 rooms built in blocks of four or eight under thatched roofs. The rooms are simple but cool and comfortable with en-suite bathrooms. The main lodge is tucked away against the rocks where you'll find the dining room, bar, and shop.

How our Tent Ratings work

These are based on our personal experience of the hotel, camp or lodge and should not be compared against ratings you find elsewhere. We intend to guide you and don’t be put off by a low tent rating as some of our favourites fall into the 2 and 3-tent categories.​

It is also important to bear in mind that standards vary from country to country and a 4-tent hotel in South Africa cannot be compared with a 4-tent hotel in another part of the world. 

To summarise our grading system, we have considered the following.
