Discover Okonjima African Villa

Found on the Okonjima reserve, home to the Africat Foundation which specializes in rehabilitative programmes for cheetah, leopard, wild dog and hyenas, a stay at Okonjima African Villa provides the opportunity to encounter these predators up close.

African Villa is a safari-chic, thatched villa with 2 en-suite, luxury bedrooms in the main house and 2 separate private, luxury mini suites, which together can accommodate up to 8 adults and 4 children. There's a modern, chef-designed kitchen and beautiful red teak decking which wraps around the cooling infinity pool on three sides. You will also find a shaded, open 'Sala' overlooking the adjacent waterhole for a chance of spotting some wildlife.
