Property details

The property

Khulu Bush Camp's main area is built on an elevated wooden deck and comprises of a dining area, library, bar and lounge. It overlooks a watering hole, which is often frequented by elephants, predators and plains-game species. Dinner is served at an antique railway teak table or around the fireside boma from where you can see night activity around the floodlit watering hole. On the deck is a splash pool for those hot African days. If you're lucky, elephants sometimes stop by for a slurp of water.

The rooms

Khulu boasts six elevated thatched tree-house style rooms and one honeymoon suite. All rooms have their own private balconies, which offer beautiful views of an active waterhole where you may spot buffalo or big cats (or both!). Each double room is tastefully decorated in natural-and-white tones and finished in rich textures of timber and copper. Rooms are all en-suite (some with large bathtubs) and come with hot and cold water. Children are welcomed and rooms come equipped with mosquito nets.

Activities

Morning and late-afternoon game-drives through the Hwange National Park are led by licensed guides. These specialty drives allow you to cover long distances and see a wide range of game. Popular guided bush walks are also offered and bring you close to small and large creatures, including cats, buffalo and elephant. These excursions usually last between 2 and 5 hours.
