Experiences

 Viewing from the hide


Come and discover our unique feature. The 150-meter long tunnel that leads to a viewing point that looks onto a watering hole and the park. There is also a channel in all of the rooms that show a live feed of the waterhole.

Exploring nature


In the evenings, guests are taken on a game drive, which brings you a lot closer to the big game. The animals are habituated to the vehicle, which means that they are used to the vehicle approaching them and know that it never causes them harm. This enables you to get within five to 10 metres of the larger predators, even while they're feasting on a recent kill.

Relaxing Spa treatment


Kwa Maritane Spa Rejuvenate your mind, body and soul in our magnificent Spa. Indulge yourself with treatments such as Thabayadiotso, our signature treatment, or be pampered with a pedicure while watching the game feeding on the plains in front of the Spa. Whether it is a full body massage, in which the masseur uses Mountain Aloe oil, or a soothing, deep cleansing facial using warm volcanic milk, the professional therapists will simply spoil you.There are four treatment rooms, including one suite suitable for couples looking to share the experience. There is also a manicure and pedicure lounge, a rasul chamber, relaxation area and hydro pool.
