A Natural Sanctuary on Vietnam’s Coast

Set within the lush wilderness of Nui Chua National Park and UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Amanoi occupies a spectacular position overlooking the crystalline waters of Vinh Hy Bay. Surrounded by a remarkable mosaic of jungle, coastline and marine ecosystems, the resort feels wonderfully secluded, yet offers endless opportunities for outdoor adventure, cultural discovery and quiet contemplation.

Pavilions in the Jungle

Amanoi’s Pavilions and Villas are designed to sit effortlessly within their surroundings. Curved roofs emerge from the treetops, latticed windows frame the landscape and natural materials echo the textures of the Vietnamese coast. Inspired by the grace and simplicity of Vietnamese architecture, each private retreat opens onto pristine jungle and the blue waters of Vinh Hy Bay, with easy access to the resort’s restaurants, pool, spa and private golden-sand beach.

Hotels Own Introduction

A Private Home in the Kenyan Wilderness

Ol Jogi offers one of Africa’s most exclusive safari experiences: an entire private home reserved for a single group at a time. Set within the vast 58,000-acre Ol Jogi Conservancy in Kenya, the residence accommodates up to 22 guests across eleven bedrooms housed in eight individual cottages, creating the rare feeling of having an entire wilderness estate to yourself.

A House Like No Other

Built and refined over decades, Ol Jogi’s private home is as remarkable for its design as it is for its setting. A distinctive collection of museum-quality artworks, fine china and silver creates an atmosphere more reminiscent of an extraordinary private residence than a traditional safari lodge. Yet beneath the grandeur, the mood remains warm, comfortable and deeply relaxed—a home designed to be lived in rather than simply admired.

Wildlife at Your Doorstep

The greatest treasure, however, lies beyond the walls. A watering hole directly in front of the house draws a constant flow of wildlife, meaning extraordinary encounters can unfold without ever leaving the property. Guests may find themselves watching elephants, buffalo and endangered black rhino from the comfort of the home, with the surrounding wilderness providing a spectacular natural theatre.

An Underground Passage to the Wild

One of Ol Jogi’s most extraordinary features is an underground tunnel leading directly from the house to a private hide beside the watering hole. From this secluded vantage point, guests can sit just metres from wildlife, close enough to see the texture of a black rhino’s skin or hear the breath of a herd of buffalo, all while remaining completely protected. It is an intimate and unforgettable way to experience the wild.

An Oasis After Adventure

After a day exploring the vast conservancy, the house becomes a sanctuary of its own. A beautiful pool and spa are surrounded by lush vegetation and gently flowing streams, creating a secluded oasis in the heart of the wilderness. Here, the pace slows, the landscape takes over and the extraordinary privacy of Ol Jogi becomes part of the experience.

The Ultimate Private Safari

Ol Jogi is fundamentally different from a conventional safari lodge. With the entire estate reserved for one group, every aspect of the experience can unfold at a personal pace, from wildlife encounters at the watering hole to evenings beside the pool. It is an extraordinary combination of private-home living, remarkable design and some of Kenya’s most compelling wilderness.

Where the Land Found Its Rhythm Again

For generations, this landscape had been pushed beyond its natural limits. Indigenous vegetation was stripped away, the land overgrazed and over-farmed, while the safari animals that once moved freely across it were hunted out more than 275 years ago by colonial hunters.

Then the land was given something it had long been denied: time.

Through decades of committed conservation, indigenous habitats were restored, the landscape rewilded and wildlife gradually reintroduced. Nature was not forced back into place. It was simply given the space to lead again. Today, Kuganha is the result—a reserve restored through patience, care and a profound respect for the natural world.

Restoration as a Way of Life

At Kuganha, restoration is not a programme or a treatment, and it is certainly not something that ends when you leave. It is woven into the experience itself, expressed through the architecture, the water, the air and the extraordinary silence of your private surroundings.

This is a place designed not to distract from nature, but to bring you closer to it. Time slows, the senses sharpen and the landscape becomes part of the experience.

An Intimate Safari Experience

With just ten private tents positioned along the edge of a tranquil watering hole, Kuganha offers an exceptionally intimate wildlife experience in Southern Africa. Each restoration suite spans at least 320 square metres, making them among the largest tents on the African continent, with vast private spaces designed as complete environments for rest, comfort and renewal.

Life at Your Own Pace

Days unfold without a prescribed rhythm. Enjoy a private dining experience within your suite, settle into a relaxed meal overlooking the landscape or spend an evening beneath the vast Karoo sky. Every detail has been considered to encourage stillness rather than activity for its own sake.

At Kuganha, nothing needs to be hurried. The landscape has found its rhythm again—and guests are invited to find theirs.

Each suite is oriented to ensure privacy and uninterrupted views of the river and surrounding floodplains.

Spaces to Gather and Reflect

The curated library offers insights into the history of the Moremi Game Reserve and the Batawana tribe. An open-air firepit lounge offers the perfect setting for storytelling under the stars.

Wellness and Leisure in the Wild
Guests can unwind with spa treatments in the privacy of their suite or take advantage of in-room yoga mats and weights. A fully equipped gym is available for those who wish to stay active, while the 16-metre lap pool offers both fitness and leisure, set against the backdrop of the untamed wilderness.

Tawana: A Destination Like No Other
Tawana is more than a safari—it is an immersion into the rhythm of Botswana’s most iconic landscapes, shaped by a deep connection to culture, conservation, and luxury. Whether you’re witnessing elephants from your private terrace or stargazing by the fire, every moment at Tawana is an invitation to explore, reflect, and reconnect.
