Overview
The original Biden family bush homestead has been reinvented as the ultimate safari villa – the perfect setting for families and groups of friends looking to truly get away from it all. Africa House is a remarkable expression of Liz Biden’s signature style and her ability to seamlessly combine old and new elements against a backdrop of vivid and vibrant colour that somehow captures the magic and energy of the continent.
The long room is the heart of Africa House and provides ample space for relaxation and fun. Dedicated living and dining areas draw people together, while the double spa treatment room and a gym space offer moments of rejuvenation. Perched atop the dry riverbed, the main deck at Africa House provides an exceptional vantage point to observe the daily activities of elephants and other wildlife passing through.
For guests seeking more immersive adventures, a dedicated Guide and Tracker, will take guests on private game drives tailored to individual needs and preferences. For those seeking the ultimate in seclusion and the luxurious freedom of space and time with loved ones, few other destinations in South Africa can rival the unparalleled experience offered by Africa House
