FACILITIES

Six enormous tents, three with two large queen beds each, and three with romantic four-poster beds, are sheltered by a sloping tent-like roof and erected on red cedar terraces. They all have private panoramic verandahs overlooking the Great Rift, where intimate meals can be served. Each tent has a vast dressing room/bathroom, and shower en suite and its own massage bed. Built in a unique and exclusive design in beige canvas to blend with the landscape, finished as an Arabis desert tent, they are decorated in an unsual imaginative style - with the meticulous care for detail that has made the Mukutan Retreat famous - creating a special, luxurious yet relaxed and extremely comfortable atmosphere.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

A central large reception area with two giant fireplaces, vast front terrace where a fire is lit every night for a stunning campfire effect, dining rooms and bar, a shop with a selection of rare local crafts, a panoramic swimming pool, and secluded viewpoints amongst clumps of trees for sundowners, meditation, yoga and relaxation are all part of the layout.
