ACCOMMODATION

Jembisa was originally built as a family home and for many years the owners lived here. The same family still own and run the reserve and with their presence Jembisa has retained a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. Staying here really does feel like a holiday to one’s home in the bush with personal collections available to all in the library and games room. The heritage of this safari lodge has given it a unique atmosphere of warmth, care, fun, peace plus an intangible 'special something' that is hard to define.

FACILITIES

The Jembisa Bush Home will cater to your every desire. Fancy a refreshing swim in the heated pool, a game of tennis on the floodlit court or just sitting back with a good book; we've got you covered.

EXPERIENCES

Whether you wish to relax in style or be more active, there are a host of options available at Jembisa. An essential oils massage on the sundeck, a visit to the bushman rock art, bush walks on the trail of wild game or a traditional game drive, day or night, in open Land Rovers – all are possible. Game on the reserve includes giraffe, zebra, leopard, brown hyena, hippo and crocodile, with opportunities on night drives to see aardvark, civet cats and porcupines.
