The Bush Pool Villa runs to a hundred and fifteen square metres, with a private lounge, an indoor massage room with river views, and exclusive boat access. The Presidential Villa covers four hundred square metres for up to four adults and includes a games room, library, and in-villa barbecue. Three Horizon Terrace Suites take a different approach: raised fourteen metres above the ground, they are reached by a glass elevator and occupy two levels — a bedroom below and a living area above, with an open deck suited to watching the tree canopy and the river below. Each has a star bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the camp you can join game drives, night drives, guided walks, and boat cruises on the river. Catch-and-release fishing is available on the water.

The camp holds four rooms — called Nests — each built on a steel frame four metres off the ground among terminalia trees. Steel frames were fabricated off-site and brought to the plains, then local artisans wove fallen twigs, vines and sticks around each frame, threading electrical wiring and water pipes through the weave so that nothing man-made is visible from outside. The design takes its form from weaver bird nests found throughout the surrounding woodland. One Nest includes a small metal lift for guests with limited mobility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside each Nest, the queen-sized bed, indoor-outdoor shower, and seating are arranged around a wide circular opening that faces out over the plains.

Game drives use electric vehicles recharged by the same solar system, so drives run in near silence — practical on a plain where elephants and lions move through the camp area. Walking safaris go out with a guide and armed scout, with a maximum of six people per walk and a minimum age of fourteen. E-mountain bikes are also available.

The Sunset and Riverview chalets face the river directly; the Mushingashi chalet sits beside the tributary of the same name, with hippos close by — the resident group numbers around thirty.
