OVERVIEW

Jaci’s Private Lodge is a family-owned camp on the banks of the Marico river that comprises several types of accommodation to suit all visitors. The Safari Suites are perfect for couples but can be converted to take two adults and two children. The Kubu Villa (named after the local word for ‘hippo’) sleeps six in three bedrooms while the Nare Villa boasts a private swimming pool.

All guests can enjoy the main pool, the Terrapin Hide, the Thutlwa Deck (meaning ‘giraffe’ for its raised height) and the Naledi Sleepout, which comes complete with a secluded hot tub. Jaci’s Private Lodge brings the fun inside with bright pops of colour that contrast with the soothing bush views.
