To top it all, the sunrise and sunset looks spectacular. The pathway between the room and main lodge runs along a ridge which gives good views of prides of lions and leopards. This can be spotted from the common area. The swimming pool is another highlight where you can have a private dinner or dive into the pool while taking in the vastness of the valley below.
