Nestled within one of Africa’s only two UNESCO-declared savannah biospheres, QWABI Private Game Reserve offers a truly unique safari experience, especially for families. A recent visit to Letamo Lodge, one of the reserve’s three exclusive lodges, revealed just how well this destination caters to families with children of all ages.

Letamo Lodge has been thoughtfully designed with families in mind, ensuring that children have a variety of engaging activities to keep them entertained throughout the day. The dedicated Kids’ Club is a standout feature, complete with arts and crafts areas, a pool table, PlayStation and TV setup, a trampoline, and a jungle gym. For active kids, there’s even a professional Padel court and a dedicated kids’ swimming pool. The best part? Parents can relax and unwind by the main pool with a cocktail in hand, confident that their little ones are well taken care of by the trained Kids’ Club team.

Beyond the vibrant kids’ hub, Letamo Lodge offers thrilling game drives twice a day, with one at sunrise and another at sunset. Spanning 11,000 hectares, QWABI is a Big-Five territory characterised by a rich, water-filled ecosystem. Families can look forward to spectacular wildlife sightings, and during the sunset game drives, there’s a special treat—sundowners with breathtaking views over the reserve, where kids get a chance to safely explore the wild under guided supervision.

Accommodation at Letamo Lodge is nothing short of luxurious. The spacious rooms come equipped with modern amenities and private balconies, offering serene views of the reserve. For those seeking an extra touch of indulgence, the Luxury Suites feature private plunge pools, perfect for a refreshing dip after a day of adventure. Dining at the lodge is another highlight, with meals prepared by local chefs who serve up traditional African dishes infused with authentic flavours. A dedicated kids’ menu ensures that even the pickiest of eaters are delighted, offering a variety of colourful and delicious options. With breakfast, lunch, and dinner included, it’s easy to keep everyone fueled for the day’s activities.

While we never had time to experience the spa, a quick peek inside revealed a tranquil oasis with multiple treatment rooms. The spa embraces QWABI’s natural beauty, offering rejuvenating treatments incorporating local herbs, earth elements, and plant extracts, making it a perfect spot for parents to unwind and reconnect.

Letamo Lodge at QWABI Private Game Reserve stands out as an ideal family-friendly destination, combining adventure, relaxation, and the perfect blend of luxury and nature. We will certainly be back for another round of family fun.
