facilities & activities
Whilst relaxing in the comfort of the public lounge with its spacious patio, or at the main pool looking out over lush gardens and floodlit waterhole, guests are frequently treated to fantastic views of birds and game drinking and bathing.
A viewing loft above the lounge, with adjoining library, makes a pleasant nook for a quiet game of chess as well as a bird's eye view of the waterhole.

dining
Gourmet dining is an essential component of the Savanna safari experience. Their delicious Breakfast & Lunch buffets are of the highest standard, with emphasis on quality & presentation.
Candle-lit dinners, with traditional local dishes adding spice to the best international fare, are served on the deck of the main lodge. On balmy nights, sumptuous barbecues are enjoyed under the stars round a blazing fire in an open-air 'boma' or in a candle-lit clearing in the bush. Dinner is complimented by award winning wines, imported and local, from Savanna's well-stocked wine cellar.

Children of all ages are welcome with their families when booking the Savanna Suite, however no children under the age of 8 years will be permitted at the main lodge.
