Subterranean bliss, Earth Lodge is unlike any other lodge in Africa – where else can you look up though a skylight to an elephant looking down at you? Using sloping topography brilliantly, its ultramodern rooms, open communal areas and private plunge pools are flooded with light. The super-thick walls and polished-cement floors are dotted with artwork and natural materials.
It's an architectural triumph and supremely comfortable (plunge pools are standard), as well as wonderfully remote. In short it feels like paradise.
