Khamab Kalahari Reserve

Khamab Kalahari Reserve is a truly intimate and private wilderness experience where guests have the privilege of having the entire reserve to themselves, adding to the feeling of remoteness that the Kalahari brings. The ideal destination for any occasion, from small get-togethers to exclusive honeymoons, the lodge is fenced for peace of mind and overlooks a busy waterhole, making for an uninterrupted connection to wildlife. All bedrooms are air-conditioned for comfort during the hot summers, while the lounge has a fireplace to warm up the cold winter nights. The interleading Zebra rooms are furnished with king-size or twin beds, and have en-suite bathrooms with baths and shower, as well as outdoor showers. The Giraffe rooms are interleading, and they are furnished with king-size or twin beds. The rooms have en-suite bathrooms with baths and shower, as well as outdoor showers. The Ngaphiwane rooms each contain twin beds and have en-suite bathrooms with showers only. In true safari style, dinner is prepared and served outside in our boma, with a campfire providing a cosy atmosphere. When the weather is not suitable, delicious home-style cooking is served on the dining room deck overlooking the waterhole, or in the dining room next to the fireplace. The lodge has a stunning swimming pool and a poolside bar where guests can cool down and relax on hot summer afternoons. Guests can also enjoy the comfort of an air-conditioned bar and lounge inside the lodge with an outside deck overlooking the waterhole. Guest activities are tailored around the preferences of each group, but we encourage as much time out on the reserve as possible. Lunch is often served in the shade of a camelthorn tree, while a wonderful fireside dinner under the stars creates a backdrop that not even the best restaurants can match. Khamab Kalahari Reserve is reached by a transfer from Kimberley Airport, private chartered flight or via road if you have a high clearance vehicle.
