Do you want to fall asleep to our hippo's grunt ?
Then The Chalet would be the choice for your stay.

From R 1000 per person per night, from 1 up to 3 persons, children half price
The Chalet is ideally for 2 adults but a single bed can also be made for a child or for an adult. That has been done with no complaints. The veranda is big enough and keeps you safe from all the wild animals that lurk around.
Little well equipped kitchenette. Lovely walk-in shower - the shower door also has this open mouth hippo on the door.
The chalet is relatively new... and the hippos can be fed from there and they sleep most nights next to chalet when they choose to.
The Chalet is self-catering.
