As if floating in the mystic atmosphere, Sky Lodge rests atop one of the highest mountains in the area. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors in the reception areas perfectly frame the magnificent surrounds. Comprising seven beautifully appointed suites and two separate apartments, it makes an ideal sole-use villa for extended families or groups of friends. Each suite is spacious, light-filled and equipped with all the modern amenities one would expect – from Nespresso machines to large flat-screen TVs.
The décor and interiors feature earthy tones of brown and beige, which give the feeling of a connection to the surrounding nature, as do the textures of wood, wool and similar natural fibres. Blazing fireplaces in each reception room keep guests cosy from the sometimes-crisp temperatures of the great outdoors. The infinity swimming pool is a sublime place to cool off when the mercury rises, and the expansive deck makes star-gazing a visceral experience. Thanks to mostly clear skies and no intrusion of city lights, this location offers some of the best starry nights in the country. For this reason, Sky Lodge will soon introduce its astronomy hollow – a shelter from the elements that will comfortably ensconce guests within, allowing them to lie back and marvel at the wonder of the night sky, no matter the weather. Not to be missed, the Sky Spa offers indulgent massages and a unique selection of additional pampering treatments, while the jacuzzi is open 24/7, with uninterrupted views over the savannah.
