Set in the heart of the Zimbabwean wilderness, Somalisa Camp is a luxury safari experience. Enjoy the surroundings and wildlife of Hwange National Park from a camp overlooking an ancient seasonal flood plain. Alongside other wildlife, elephants are in abundance here; watch them from private decks for an up close experience.
Somalisa offers a comfortable and elegant camp both inside and out. 7 Sail Tents have sliding doors out to the wild, en-suite facilities and even a glass wood-burning fireplace for a cool Zimbabwean night. Indoor and outdoor showers and copper bathtubs complete the rooms, while the main areas offer a splash pool and decks overlooking the camp water hole.
