Accommodation at Ndaka Safari Lodge
6 Luxury Safari Tents with views out over the Nambiti Plain in front of the Lodge, each with an entrance foyer, large lounge, a double bedroom, private bathroom with bath and large shower and separate toilet en suite. Step out to an outdoor shower with a view. These tents are spacious with views from the lounge, bedroom, bath and showers. What is rather unique is that the bathroom, entrance, back of the bed and cupboard area is constructed of brick. The lounge and bedroom are primarily tented and the bathroom section has a metal roof with ceiling, making that section quite private.
Extra beds may be brought into the suite and located in the open plan lounge area for children. Two double family tents will be available in the new year 2015. The double accommodation in the farm house, each with private bathroom en suite, will continue to be used whilst the extra tented accommodation and Main Lodge buildings are being constructed.
Whilst waiting on the new Main Lodge building, the existing public areas include a lounge, dining room, lapa, honesty bar, dining view deck, boma and swimming pool. There is a trampoline and games for children.
Guided open vehicle game drives are conducted early mornings and late afternoons in the Nambiti Game Reserve.
