The main distinction between the lodges are the number of guests that can be accommodated in each. Lelapa has 12 rooms in total including four family suites, equipped with a second bedroom, furnished with bunkbeds, and stocked with games. Dithaba has 4 large suites, sleeping just 8 guests and you can expect spacious lounges and wood-burning stoves in each. Kopano has 4 chalets with curved glass windows and double doors leading onto a deck perched above the canopy. But whichever lodge you choose, expect chic, understated rooms, comfy mattresses, big bathrooms and private plunge pools.
