Why it's unique

On a bend of the Luangwa River, take in sweeping views and abundant wildlife from your veranda in Zambia’s take on wild luxury.

Back at camp, slip into a deep soaking tub and let the Luangwa drift by below. Spend golden hour with a glass of something great in hand, then head up to the clifftop fire pit for crackling flames, big-sky views, and that quiet, luxurious feeling of being completely off the grid.
