Aquila's Deluxe Safari Cottage

Imagine staying in a deluxe safari cottage, situated atop the Karoo’s majestic rock formations, with a private wooden patio offering panoramic vistas of Aquila’s 10 000 hectare South African wildlife reserve.

The most luxurious accommodation choice available at Aquila, the deluxe cottage is secluded from the main lodge and has exclusive views of the watering hole, so you can watch the Big Five stroll past on those beautiful afternoons or sit back and enjoy incredible sights of the Karoo sunrise and sunset.

Newly renovated and designed in harmony with the surrounding mountainside, the cottage sleeps two guests and features a free-standing indoor bath (with a view), a spacious corner shower, his-and-hers sinks, and a private outdoor hot tub. Your deluxe safari cottage stay is elevated with air conditioning, bath robes and slippers—ensuring you have everything you need to relax and indulge in the natural tranquility.

One of the most exciting additions to your stay in Aquila’s Deluxe Safari Cottage is the inclusion of a private game drive safari. Led by an experienced guide, you’ll be taken out into the reserve in a private 4×4 open-air vehicle for a 1-2 hour Big Five vehicle safari tour. Deluxe Safari Cottage guests are also offered a complimentary bottle of house wine and enjoy free Tranquila Spa access for the duration of their stay. At check-in, guests can opt to replace one vehicle game drive with a horseback or quad bike safari tour.
