About The Hotel

The brand-new Jack’s Camp pays homage to the property’s enduring and much-loved 1940s campaign style. Adorned with a classic East African safari feel, the nine guest rooms, 7 twin tents featuring two queen-size beds and 2 double tents with extra-length king beds, have almost doubled in size. Whilst the iconic green canvas and muslin-draped walls remain, each tent is embellished with Persian and North African rugs, paraffin lamps, brass fittings, luxuriant textiles and mahogany campaign furniture.

There is a comfortable living area, with a sofa and day bed for expansive views of the Kalahari. You’ll discover Natural History Museum cabinets curated by Ralph Bousfield himself, an overhead bed cooling system to ward off the desert heat and an en-suite bathroom with indoor and outdoor showers. Outside, each veranda has a private deck with a sparkling plunge pool as well as several velvet-clad chairs overlooking the glittering ancient landscape.

Sustainable Initiatives

Environmental Conservation and Social Responsibility

Natural Selection was founded on the basis of its commitment to environmental conservation and the need to protect Africa’s important wildlife areas for the benefit of future generations. They are equally committed to community outreach and implement community outreach projects in villages in close proximity to the camps, which reflects the goal of improving the livelihoods of communities living alongside wildlife. 1.5% of every guest’s stay at Natural Selection camps is committed to regional conservation and community outreach initiatives. In addition to this contribution, Natural Selection has introduced a Conservation, Community and Reserve Fee. This is a non-refundable fee that secures funds that are crucial to the areas of operation for protecting wildlife, wildlife habitat, supporting communities as well as managing reserves and concessions. Since 2016 Natural Selection has supported over 94 initiatives, 62 in Botswana, 1 in Madagascar, 28 in Namibia and 3 in South Africa.
