Description
Nyamatusi Mahogany
Mana Pools
Nyamatusi Mahogany is one of the latest additions for African Bush Camps and their family safari camps. It is the perfect camp from which to introduce your family to the wonders of Africa and her wildlife. All four of the suites are covered by the branches of old Mahogany trees’ on the banks of the Zambezi River. Mana Pools lies within the Great East African Rift Valley ensuring lush vegetation and a diversity of wildlife found nowhere else in Africa.
The camp is also completely solar powered, built from raw, natural materials and provides a warmth of atmosphere that is quite unlike any other camp we have visited. From the lounge, dining room, plunge pool or fire area there are the most stunning views over the floodplains with the escarpment in the distance.
As the camp lies in a private concession your safari has complete flexibility for your family from canoeing down the Zambezi River, fishing from the banks or quietly relaxing and birding.
Children receive an Ngwana Club kit on arrival and staff will tailor make activities to suit you all. Walking safaris and canoeing are restricted to children over the age of sixteen.
Accommodation
Nyamatusi Mahogany has four rooms, two standard suites which feature twin or double beds, private plunge pool, air conditioning, mini bar, lounge and a wide deck overlooking the river. The very spacious en-suite bathrooms have indoor and outside showers, twin basins and toilet.
The family suites are made up of two en-suite tents that are connected by a short corridor. The main bedroom is the same as in the standard suite while the second room is made for children with twin beds and is slightly smaller and has no outside shower. The family tents are closer to the main guest area to ensure children do not have to walk far through the bush alone.
