Although large, Kapama River Lodge remains stylish and roomy. Beautifully positioned in the curve of the mostly dry Kapama River, Kapama River lodge has 64 bedrooms in total. Each of these rooms features full en-suite bathrooms and a terrace from which you can spot animals come to drink at the small permanent waterhole. There is a large rim-flow swimming pool surrounded by sun loungers from where you will still be able to spot game just outside the perimeter of the camp. There is a large lounge and bar area under double volume thatch with a large fireplace, providing warmth and atmosphere on cooler evenings.

The Rhino Boma dining area with tables arranged under a low thatch in a horseshoe curve, has a central open space where a roaring outdoor fire gives a glow to evening meals. Buffet-style meals introduce African flavours with Pan African dishes using fresh local ingredients and specialist dishes featuring venison like kudu and impala. Dishes are prepared with seasonal local produce and fresh herbs grown at Kapama River Lodge. Ethnic dishes and accompaniments like mealie pap (African-style polenta) and chakalaka (a hot and spicy relish) are used to give the taste of Africa, but more familiar food is also on the menu. Kapama River lodge also has a wine cellar worth boasting about.

Completed in November 2008 the 20 Spa suites are positioned close to the Spa on a private setting away from the rest of the lodge and all rooms have magnificent private views into the reserve. The ebony and ivory colors and the use of frameless glass panels in the bathroom as well as the 3 meter high doors makes it possible to fully enjoy the magnificent views from every corner of the room. Or pamper yourself at the two Kapama River Lodge Royal Suites. These suites are bigger in every way and have a separate lounge and extended balcony with recliner couches. Your en-suite bathroom has bath and a dual shower cubicle looking towards the bush.
