Luxury Tents with Views

Each tent includes a private bathroom with a shower, free toiletries, a hairdryer, and bathrobes. Guests have a private deck overlooking a waterhole where hippos, elephants, and other wildlife gather. Tents feature an indoor and outdoor shower, bathtub, mosquito net over the bed, and a safe.

Varied Breakfast and Dinner

A buffet, à la carte, or continental breakfast is served daily. The bar offers wine, champagne, and cocktails. Special diet menus and kids' meals are available upon request. Guests praise the chef for tailoring dishes to dietary needs, including gluten-free options.

Game Drives and Pool

Guests can join two game drives per day with experienced guides and trackers. Bush walks are also offered. The infinity pool overlooks the waterhole and is open year-round with a pool bar. Sun loungers and umbrellas are provided. Board games and a shared lounge with TV are available for downtime. Spa treatments, such as massages, can be arranged on the deck.

Timbavati Game Reserve

The camp is set within the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve, part of the Greater Kruger area. It is 17 km from Orpen Gate and 29 km from Timbavati Private Nature & Game Reserve. The camp has its own waterhole, frequented by hippos and many other animals. Game drive vehicles have exclusive traversing rights over a private area with limited other vehicles.

Concierge and Airport Shuttle

Thabamati offers airport pickup and drop-off, as well as a shuttle service. Private check-in and check-out are provided. Daily housekeeping includes turn-down service with a bath drawn after evening drives. Laundry and ironing are available. The camp has a safe deposit box and fire extinguishers. Free WiFi and private parking are included.

“What strikes me most about this camp is the profound sense of personal care and dedication from the entire team, creating an atmosphere that feels more like a private home than a lodge. The intimate setting, with limited guests, allows for an exceptionally attentive approach to service and game viewing, where every detail, from tailored meals to moving dining locations, contributes to a deeply rewarding safari experience. The comfort of the luxurious tents, combined with direct immersion in the abundant wildlife that frequents the camp, makes for a truly remarkable stay.”
