TSWALU PRIVATE DESERT RESERVE – Kalahari Desert, South Africa

 

The black tarred strip, built for corporate jets, is just the first of many surprises to be found here in the stark, southern fringes of the Kalahari Desert. Tswalu Lodge -- elegant and luxurious -- lies at the heart of this arid wilderness. You'll discover a world of antelope, black rhino, hyena, lion, cheetah, leopard, mountain zebra, wildebeest, Cape buffalo and other creatures amidst waving grasslands, acacia bush, sweeping sand dunes and spectacular sunsets. You'll stay in a spacious suite, large bed, private deck, air-conditioning for the heat, and a fireplace for the cold desert night. Swimming pool, sundeck, library. Game drives whenever you wish. Meals: superbly prepared and served in the elegant central lounge or, at set-tables served in the bush. A satisfying stay. One of the few destinations for an experience of the Kalahari Desert. http://www.tswalu.com
