    Overview

    Situated in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve, Waterbuck Private Camp at Kings Camp is the ultimate uber-luxurious game lodge experience – exceeding all expectations... Subtly blended into the natural environment, this Private Camp reflects the charm and romance of a bygone era.

    Raised above a dry riverbed and savanna plains; which are frequented by a wide variety of wildlife by day and night; the outdoor living area features a sparkling pool, viewing deck with fireplace and dining area – all offering the ideal place to simply relax and soak up the tranquillity of the African bush.

    Waterbuck Private Camp presents luxury at its best with all modern conveniences. Every need is accommodated for by your private chef and villa host ... leaving you free to relax and enjoy.

    The open plan, fully equipped modern kitchen flows into the open plan dining area and lounge, and can be closed off from the living area with sliding doors. A private library and access to two personal computers with Wi-Fi keeps guests in contact with the outside world.

    Accommodation at Waterbuck consists of an opulent, upstairs Master Suite with open plan bathroom and a comfortable viewing lounge; plus two ground floor Luxury Suites. A detached Luxury Garden Suite completes the accommodation for a maximum of 8 guests – perfect for small groups and families.

    Suites all overlook the private gardens, swimming pool, viewing deck and boma; to the dry river bed and the bush beyond.

    The lodge is luxuriously decorated in dark tones of antique wood and thatch, which offset the natural colours of the bushveld. It is equipped with air-conditioning, Victorian baths, indoor and outdoor showers (in downstairs suites), flat screen television in the Master bedroom, DVD players, satellite TV, telephones and safes.

    About Timbavati Private Nature Reserve

    Timbavati Nature Reserve shares a common unfenced border with the Kruger National Park allowing animals free range and ensuring guests to the area the opportunity to view the greatest diversity of wildlife that Africa has to offer. View the big game from open vehicles, on foot or from the comfort of your room as you experience timeless Africa.

    Escape from the grind of daily life and succumb to the tranquil wilderness of the Timbavati Nature Reserve in the South African Lowveld. Here you can view the Big Five and other endangered species such as the Wild Dog and Cheetah in their natural environment.

    All the big game is here including rhino, elephants, buffalo, zebras, antelopes, as well as leopard, lion, hyena. Bird watching is good particularly during the rainy season.
