Xigera Safari Lodge

Xigera Safari Lodge is the fourth, and latest, African property to join The Red Carnation Hotel Collection, which in 2020 celebrated a century of hospitality. It was nothing short of a dream come true for the Tollman family to become custodians of Xigera. Protecting the land and its wildlife, while empowering and uplifting local communities, is a cornerstone of the philosophy underpinning this remarkable new safari lodge. Blending African design with unique luxury, outstanding cuisine with extraordinary wilderness experiences, , Xigera’s pioneering concept is reinventing the art of an African safari.

Room Types

• The Fan Palm Suite

  A beautiful celebration of earth tones, from burnt red and walnut to ash and biscuit-coloured clay.

  

• The Mangosteen Suite

  The African mangosteen's colours are reflected in the suite's custom bedspread and ebonised kiaat bed.

  

• The Knobthorn Suite

  The suite's spring green custom Kassena Server by Dokter and Misses pays homage to the knobthorn tree.

  

• The Sausage Tree Suite

  The beauty of the sausage tree's blooms is conceptualised by the suite's ruby-red textiles and aesthetic.

  

• The Jackalberry Suite

  This suite is exceptionally designed to echo the jade-green celadon hues of the jackalberry tree's fruit.

  

• The Marula Suite

  The suite's design is spectacular, from the unique egg cup chair to the three-stripe karakul.

  

• The Sycamore Suite

  The suite's nested Carrera tables in walnut, kiaat and light granite complement its vibrant colours.

  

• The Waterlily Suite

  Taking inspiration from the waterlilies that are the Xigera emblem, this suite is both intricate and calming.

  

• The Xigera Family Suite

  The Family Suite offers a perfect blend of spaces for spending time together and relaxing in privacy, with two spacious bedrooms and a beautiful lounge area that opens onto a wide deck overlooking the Okavango Delta. In your suite, discover a bird and mammal compendium to explore during your stay. We encourage you to record your sightings within its pages and to take it home with you, to become a complete record of your Xigera wildlife experience.

  

• The Baobab Suite

  The baobab is a prehistoric species which predates mankind. Native to our African savannah, it is a symbol of life and positivity in a landscape where little else can thrive, and has adapted to its environment, absorbing and storing water in its vast trunk during the rainy season, and producing a nutrient-dense fruit in the dry. Known as “the tree of life”, the baobab is truly iconic - and its suite of the same name is suitably spectacular, with beautiful sculptures and cabinetry.
