Let Kapama’s Romantic Sleepout platform submerge you in the abundant wilderness that spans over 15,000 hectares of pristine bushveld.

The sleep-out venue is a raised platform built deep in the reserve where guests can spend the night under the stars. A giant four-poster bed swathed in billowing mosquito netting gives guests an uninterrupted view of the stars.

The platform is private and secluded. Arrive at dusk and watch the golden light of the sunset across the African horizon while sipping on a sundowner. Nature’s sounds set the soundtrack for the peaceful evening to come.

As you wind your way up the spiral stairs to the elevated platform, be welcomed with refreshing cocktails and a mesmerizing 360’ view. The African bush fairy-tale continues with a five-course dinner served by your personal chef at an intimate table for two.

The venue is encircled by a ring of golden lantern light and the stars above bathe the night sky. A favourite for honeymooners.

The platform and luxury bathroom beneath it are both animal-proof with a solid wooden gate, lock and a two-way radio and cellular phone supplied for additional peace of mind to keep in touch with the lodge if need be. With a hot shower, and his and hers basins, the bathroom comes with all the 5-star comforts you can expect from Kapama.

Your guide will await your call the next morning and escort you safely back to the lodge.

The sleep-out venue is offered all year round but is weather dependent.
