A splendid canvas and thatch roofed lodge with a large deck area overlooking a waterhole. The double volume lounge and dining area spills out onto a deck which is adjacent to the outside boma. The nine luxury tents are camouflaged under trees allowing for ample privacy and unsurpassed comforts. Each tent is air-conditioned and heated and has an en suite bathroom, shower, private plunge pool and viewing deck. Three premier tents at Shamwari Bayethe Hills are the ultimate in tented luxury. These tents offer the additional luxuries of a fireplace, satelite TV, heated plunge pools and hammocks suspended out of the wooden decks.
