Ask for one of the elevated desert-view suites positioned slightly further from the main lodge for added privacy and uninterrupted horizon views. Expect warm timber accents, canvas walls that breathe with the desert air, shaded decks for sunrise coffee, and spacious bathrooms with indoor showers.
Full-board style communal dining experience highlighting locally sourced ingredients and African-inspired cuisine. Meals are often shared at long tables, reinforcing Habitas’ signature community ethos. Sundowners and evening fire gatherings form part of the rhythm.
Neutral desert tones, wide-brim hat, sunscreen, closed shoes for nature walks, warm layers for cool Kalahari evenings, binoculars for birding.
Stay for at least two nights to fully experience both the safari drives and the cultural immersion elements. Ask the team about their community initiatives and schedule your afternoon around golden-hour wildlife tracking followed by sunset on the ridge deck.
The lodge operates on a private reserve model, integrating wildlife protection with local employment, community engagement and low-impact architectural design. Conservation levy is prepaid with accommodation
