Best Luxury Safari Lodges
With plenty of options to choose from, selecting your safari accommodation isn't easy. Different lodges can offer different experiences depending on what you are after from your holiday. Some lodges will only have small guest occupancy and offer intimate experiences, whereas other camps will cater for larger groups.
Camps can also be mobile meaning that they are not permanent structures and they will relocate depending on the season and where the animals are most likely to be. Due to the accommodation manoeuvring regularly, these camps are normally made up from a number of luxury tents. These tents however, dispel all traditional myths of what may come to mind if you think of camping. Their furnishings are luxurious and all your needs will be met. Their placement is also extra-close to the action and will certainly make you feel more at one with nature. If you have the opportunity to stay in these mobile camps, do it.
Best Beach Hotels
Just like the safari camps, there are many varying options when it comes to accommodation by the beach. Generally the more you pay, the more intimate and luxurious your accommodation will be, however we have options that can cater for all budgets. The beach hotels we offer can either be the base for a perfect romantic getaway or for an ideal adventure and activity filled holiday.
Best Safari Lodges
It is very hard to rank Africa lodges with one simple measure! Our ranking is subjective and tries to reflect value for money as well as overall quality. Therefore we may award just three stars to certain 'five star' lodges in the hotel, or five stars to some superb, unashamed 'three star' hotels that are great value for money.

Onguma Bush Camp is exceptionally good value for money and perfect for families with children. You get a sprinkling of all the luxuries you could need - including a pool - but for a fraction of the cost as you would get on safari in other southern African countries.

Opened in 2022, Onguma Camp Kala is one of Etosha National Park’s crown jewels. It’s exclusive, slick, and importantly, located on the banks of an action-packed waterhole - meaning you don’t even have to leave the luxury of camp to be on safari.
Our View
Onguma Forest Camp is a barefoot luxury safari experience that takes things back to basics, but with a sprinkling of safari romance. Recently renovated - and formerly called Onguma Etosha Aoba - this camp is a brilliant value for money, with everything you could possibly want for an authentic and memorable safari experience.
Our View
Onguma Tented Camp is old school safari romance, with elegant dining and the draw of a brilliant waterhole out the front of camp which acts like a magnet to passing wildlife. It’s chic, luxurious, but still has the under canvas safari magic, where you feel totally immersed in the surrounding nature.
Our View
Onguma’s The Fort’s name is warranted. The desert-coloured geometric complex sits in the middle of the Etosha with brilliant views into the surrounding pans. Set in amongst 100s of camel thorn trees, it feels like The Fort could have been there for years, weaving in and out of its natural surroundings. It’s also exceptionally good value for money.
A beautiful property, loved the view of the lush vegetation around the propertyLoved cleaning up after our time in the bush and taking a nice swim in the pool
Excellent food at the restaurant

Oyster Bay - just the best boutique hotel I have ever stayed in (room, garden, food, lounge, service) though the location not quite as good as the first two.- M Braithwaite
Our View
Pafuri Camp has bundles of charm and feels truly wild in the unfenced far north of the Kruger National Park. It’s one for those who don’t want to break the bank, but seek an authentic safari with fabulous wildlife set away from the crowds of the south. While it’s not uber plush, there are comforts like a pool and classic safari luxuries to make your stay special.
