Embark on a unique African experience, with a hint of fine-dining flair. Your visit to Motswari and Giraffe’s Nest Hide includes brunch, high tea (late lunch) and dinner – each traditional South African meal being a special occasion that celebrates cuisine and culture.
Indulge in a fresh, buffet-style continental breakfast and a generous selection of cooked meals on the verandah, while taking in the crisp bush air and natural scenery. Animals can often be spotted drinking from the nearby river or walking through the bush. Monkeys are frequent visitors.
Bush breakfasts can be arranged for special occasions.
Open-air dinner boma
Experience elegant bush dining in the open-air boma, framed by trees and lit by lanterns and an open fire pit. Hearty drumming signals the start of dinners and creates a memorable atmosphere.
Bars and lounge
Enjoy pre-dinner drinks, night caps or coffees at the bar and lunching in the lounge area, where guests also meet for coffee and snacks before setting off for an early-morning game drive. An award-winning selection of Southern African wines is on offer.

We had a great experience at Motswari. The food here is amazing. The menu changes every day and it is consistently tasty.

Our chalet had a view over the riverbed and we watched elephants drinking at the waterhole from our verandah... Truly remarkable.
