Camp Details
In prime location for easy access to the reserve, and with its own productive waterhole, Thawale Lodge is a peaceful outpost from which to experience Majete’s diverse wildlife. Completely unfenced, a stay here is a safari in its own right.
Thawale is a fully catered lodge featuring eight ensuite canvas tented suites with stone walls (one of which is a honeymoon suite) and two concrete and stone family chalets, each with two ensuite bedrooms.
The thatched central dining and restaurant area overlooks an active waterhole, as does a bird-watching platform. The waterhole regularly attracts a wide variety of wildlife, including a family of elephants that often frequent the area. The lodge is completely unfenced to give guests a natural safari experience. The word ‘thawale’ means a natural pan that fills with water after the rainy season.
