Consisting of 16 luxury tents, each tent enjoys an African view over an ancient riverbed, now called the Dete Vlei. The tents, connected by natural, level walkways, are positioned to form an attractive arc around an open-plan, decked main area that also features a pizza oven and rustic fire Boma, lounge area, dining deck and a swimming pool which elephants frequent to drink from!
UPLIFTING YOUR HEALTH & WELLNESS
PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
Each session is approximately an hour long and will take place on our dedicated movement deck overlooking the Dete Vlei. Frequented by wildlife, such as elephants, impala, and giraffe, we may take a moment to pause and enjoy their company during our class.
STRESS MANAGEMENT
In these half hour sessions you can expect to learn a range of practical relaxation techniques including breathing exercises, mindfulness and meditations. In addition, you will have plenty of time to engage with your wellness guide on how to manage your stress.
TALKSHOPS
Holistic Wellness is a complex and interconnected system that produces your current state of health and satisfaction. Through exploring your current state of wellness, we will identify ways to uplift your personal health whilst providing you with the key knowledge and skills required to do so.
