The Motse accommodates no more than 24 guests at any one time to make for a truly intimate Kalahari experience. The main house is a spectacular space in which to meet, with its elevated decks and elegant lounges.
Designed for families
Three suites have been designed especially for families. Each offers two separate bedroom suites with their own en-suite bathrooms. An expansive central living room leads to a shady, private terrace. These suites are each over 170 square metres in size and create the perfect environment for any family group.
Endless savannah views
An infinity pool offers an endless view over the savannahs, and a secluded spa is designed to complete your total relaxation. The mezzanine library is equipped with satellite TV (the Motse also has full broadband Wi-Fi access throughout) and its museum cases display rare artefacts from the area.

Sangeeta’s Trip Report of Tswalu Kalahari: April/May can be a magical time in the Kalahari.
