However, breakfast served in the morning boosts you for your initial game drives. As you return in the afternoon, you choose to relax and have a comforting tea. Dinners ideally enjoyed in a candlelit ambiance and recommended to enjoy outdoor while you gaze at the beautiful shining sky.

The Hippo Point has two suites that are spacious and perfect for a couple. These have wooden flooring beautifully decorated with rugs and walls covered with gauze to let the cool breeze enter, keeping the mosquitoes prevented.
