Angama Amboseli in the Kimana Conservancy, Kenya, welcomed its first guests on the 1st of November. Exclusive traversing rights of the 5,700-acre sanctuary, which incorporates a crucial migration corridor in the Amboseli ecosystem, ensures excellent game viewing. This intimate lodge of just 10 Suites draws design inspiration from the two "giants" of the landscape — the Super Tusker elephants and Mount Kilimanjaro.
In the Pipeline.... Natural Selections, Tawana Camp
Stretching across nearly 1,900 square miles, the Moremi Game Reserve is renowned for its high concentration of antelope, predators and large herbivores. Tawana is entirely unfenced, allowing the wildlife to wander through the heart of the camp, unhindered.
This new addition to the Natural Selection portfolio is born of a partnership with Chief Tawana Moremi, of the Batawana tribe. For centuries, his ancestors have called this land their home. Chief Tawana has collaborated with Natural Selection to safeguard this pristine ecosystem for future generations, while providing opportunities for his people to thrive.
Wilderness Bisate Reserve
Bisate Reserve is crafted with meticulous attention to detail. A spacious main area and just four expansive villas are perched on the rim of a weathered volcano, featuring private hot tubs. The lodge's architecture embodies the traditions of Rwandan royalty and its cultural heritage.
Opening on July 1st in southern Tanzania, Kokoko Camp will provide an intimate and exclusive safari experience in the prime wildlife region of Ruaha, on the banks of the Mwagusi River.
There are just three guest tents at Kokoko, each made of mosquito net mesh to maximize views over the reserve. The tents boast an en suite bathroom with flush loo, bucket shower, and a weatherproof cover that can be folded back on clear nights to sleep under the stars.
Singita Milele, an exclusive-use villa situated high on the slopes on Sasakwa Hill in the heart of northern Tanzania's Serengeti, is set to open in May. Ideal for families or groups of friends, this one-of-a-kind property celebrates Africa's creative energy and excellence with locally sourced design elements and décor throughout.
Singita Milele can accommodate up to 10 guests in five individually designed suites named after the collective nouns for Tanzania's most iconic species – honoring giraffe, lion, cheetah, zebra and rhino. The spacious suites all include large outdoor terraces and decks, dressing rooms, outdoor showers, private Jacuzzis and sweeping views over the savannah below.
Set in a valley in Damaraland's expansive Palmwag Concession, Desert Rhino Camp began as a research base for Save the Rhino Trust Namibia (SRT). Now a thriving partnership between local communities, SRT and Wilderness Safaris, trackers patrol and protect one of Africa's most precious populations of desert-adapted black rhino.
Serengeti Explorer Camp
Serengeti Explorer Camp, set to open mid-2024, is a luxury safari camp located in the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. It offers a unique and immersive experience for visitors looking to explore the park's landscapes and wildlife.
The camp is designed in a minimalistic fashion, with geometrical shaped columns that repeat throughout the project to support a lightweight cantilevered roof that filters the sunlight. Balconies are integrated into the rooms, so that they become an extension of the space, with fully retracting windows. Internal furnishings are unique and custom designed using earthy colors and textures. Common areas, comprised separate blocks, include a dining area, bar and sitting room. These are also fully open to nature, surrounded by large outdoor decks, making the transition between indoor spaces and the spectacular views unobstructed. The lower level includes the gym, infinity pool, and a pool bar, set on the edge of the bushveld.
Activities at the Serengeti Explorer Camp feature game drives, where visitors have the opportunity to witness the incredible wildlife migrations that the Serengeti is famous for. The camp also offers guided walks, allowing guests to experience the natural environment on foot and learn more about the flora and fauna of the region.
