Luxury Suites
Sausage Tree’s Luxury Tented Suites have each been lovingly designed to bring your most elegant safari dreams to life. Whatever your room doesn’t already provide, your private ‘Muchinda’ (or butler) will be sure to arrange. Imagine a spacious island of cool minimalist style, with a hint of old-school safari glimpsed in the little details and endless views of the Zambezi River stretching out before you. Then add a private plunge pool and a lounge space with a minibar, a king-size or twin bed, a smooth stone tub and an outdoor shower… and perhaps a buffalo grazing peacefully less than ten steps from your room.
Kigelia House
Kigelia House is the perfect choice for small groups or families wanting a truly exclusive safari experience in one of the best wildlife destinations in the world. Kigelia’s two en-suite bedrooms are connected by an open-plan living area which leads directly onto an extensive private deck and plunge pool. One room has a lush king-sized bed, the other has two twin beds with delicate wooden princess frames. The central lounge space is designed for maximum comfort, with sumptuous sofas and a large dining table overlooking the Zambezi River.
