Expect to hear a constant rush of life from the Sabie River: animals, night predators, and birds. This treehouse is not just a vantage point from where to observe the meandering river with the spectacle of life it sustains, but a platform that allows to become a part of it.
The 50m2 deck can accommodate 4 guests—and children are welcome. There is no electricity—but the lodge will equip you with a torch, and you should even be able to get a cellphone signal. But are you really bothered about checking your SMS? Didn’t think so.
Chalkley is the perfect place to capture and enjoy Africa’s vast, splendid landscape. Secure and luxurious, this “bush bedroom” has all the comforts that a guest can expect at a five-star safari lodge. Arrive here at sunset and find a delicious picnic dinner awaiting—and finish the day by sipping a drink long into the starry night.
The most striking feature of this delightful hideaway is its construction. It employs large sheets of glass, combined with wood—to a spectacular effect. The contemporary décor inside seduces with understated greys and whites—and elegant black and purple. It’s a luxurious setting with a unique window to enjoy the ever-changing views—no matter what the weather has in store.
The Treehouse Experience is booked in conjunction with accommodation at the lodge of your choice, at an additional rate, per person per night. Your room remains ready for your return at any point. You’ll pack a stay-over bag with the essentials, leaving the rest of your belongings back at the lodge.
