Importantly you feel like you are close to nature offering you the feel of a real safari adventure. The villas are air-conditioned and offer over 90sqm of inside space. The tented bedrooms are large and offer very comfortable custom made beds, lots of people tell us we have the best beds in the Selous! Large opulent stone bathrooms give you all the comforts you could need and also come with wonderful inside and outside showers where you can shower under the elements in privacy.

Dining & Cuisine

Dining in different locations every day
Unlike most safari lodges we don’t group our guests together for meal times unless you specifically request to eat together. The concept here is that each meal time is a special occasion, it is a relaxed experience and a gourmet one, we offer a la carte dining and 3 course lunches and dinners. Our aim is for you to never eat in the same place twice. At Azura, dining is all part of the experience, from breakfast in the bush to dining under the vast African skies by candle light. Our hosts take huge pride in their innovative dining set-ups, and little touches to make your stay special. Our menus are based on what is fresh and available, it’s a simple understated affair. At dinner we offer a choice of dishes and we can cater for all dietary needs and requirements as long as we have notice due to our remote location.
