In the hotel, African artefacts abound beneath thatched ceilings; accommodations having balconies from where you can watch zebras, gazelles and giraffes meandering by. The excitement is non-stop - join a private three hour VIP guided safari trek to witness some of the resort’s 300 species of animals or chill out by the Uzima zero-entry swimming pool with its sixty seven foot long slide and squirting venus flytraps.

There are animal-themed activities for children. Eat at two award-winning restaurants, Jiko The Cooking Place and Boma where the menu explores the rich flavours of the African continent.
