Introducing the new River Lodge Tamboti Superior Suites at Kapama

As part of Kapama’s ongoing journey to elevate our guest experience and redefine luxury safari living, we’re thrilled to share an important update from Kapama River Lodge and Kapama Southern Camp.

Introducing the New River Lodge Tamboti Superior Suites

We’re in the final stages of completing our brand-new Tamboti Superior Suites at Kapama River Lodge, which will officially open on December 15th. These suites showcase a modern, contemporary design – spacious, light-filled, and framed by breathtaking views of the surrounding bushveld.

In addition, with thoughtfully designed interleading rooms, the Tamboti Superior Suites are ideal for families, providing flexible space and privacy for children of all ages whilst ensuring a seamless and luxurious stay.

These suites will complement the existing Deluxe Suites’ look and feel, creating a more unified, sophisticated design identity for River Lodge.

At the same time, the current Spa Suites will be closed and undergo a full refurbishment to align with the modern look and feel of the Deluxe Suites, ensuring a cohesive aesthetic and elevated guest experience throughout the lodge.

The 4 Family Spa Suites will be replaced with the interleading Tamboti Superior Suites.

Additionally, we’ll phase out the Standard Courtyard Suites, which will be repurposed into guide accommodation and no longer available as guest inventory.

This marks another major step in River Lodge’s transformational journey as it continues to harmonize modern elegance with authentic African warmth in the heart of the scenic bushveld.

Kapama Southern Camp to become an exclusive boutique offering

The next chapter for Kapama Private Game Reserve begins in July 2026, when Kapama Southern Camp will be transformed into a small boutique villa-only lodge, delivering an even more intimate and personalized safari experience.

Currently offering 10 Villas alongside 15 Standard Suites, Southern Camp will retire the Suites to emerge as an exclusive villa-only retreat. This evolution will provide guests with enhanced privacy, a thoughtfully curated experience, and a serene, tranquil setting – fully aligned with Kapama’s vision of ultra-luxury safari living.

Our Vision

River Lodge and Southern Camp are distinguished 5-star properties, and these exciting enhancements reflect Kapama’s unwavering commitment to elevating and reimagining the safari experience.

Every detail – from the design and accommodations to the guest journey is being carefully crafted to deliver a curated, contemporary, and unforgettable safari stay.

This reflects Kapama’s commitment to luxury, privacy, and authentic connection within a balanced wilderness ecosystem in our Big Five Private Reserve.
