Seringa – Our Honeymoon Suite

So named for the magnificent tree towering over the fire pit, Seringa features three platforms – an entertainment deck, a sleeping deck and a bathroom deck offering a romantic outside bath facing the hills of the GaMashishimale, in the Selati game reserve in the distance.

Savour a glass of champagne, to complement the setting sun or by candlelight, while relaxing in warm bubbles as the day gives way to the sounds of the evening bush.

"Providing welcome shade over the boma, the Seringa tree can be most enjoyed in autumn when its red, orange and yellow colours rival those of the setting sun – visible from every deck. But in all seasons, however, this astounding tree delights – with whorls of luminous green leaves in summer, mysterious bending shapes of branches in winter and the softness of budding leaves in spring.

The Seringa stores water in its roots, enabling it to survive short periods of drought and the fibre obtained from the bark, young shoots and roots is strong enough to be used for weaving. Browsers, apart from elephant, do not particularly like the leaves."
