The Zanji Suite At Temp Plains

The Zanji Suite At Tembo Plains

The Zanji Suite at Tembo Plains offers the pinnacle of luxury for those seeking an exclusive Zimbabwe safari experience.

The Zanji Suite at Tembo Plains, a two-bedroom private sanctuary, is nestled within a dense riverine forest along the Zambezi River in the 128,000-hectare Sapi Private Reserve, located east of Zimbabwe’s Mana Pools National Park. This exclusive camp is part of our prestigious Réserve Collection and holds the distinction of being the only camp in Zimbabwe honoured as a member of Relais & Châteaux.

Tembo Plains Camp offers four luxurious suites and the exquisite two-bedroom Zanji Suite, perfect for families, couples, or anyone seeking the pinnacle of privacy on a safari. Each tent features semi-circular walls that separate the bath and shower from the bedroom, enhancing privacy with indoor lounge areas that continue the pack-stone wall design outside. This innovative architecture ensures a greater sense of seclusion, a rare find in tented camps.

 

Wildlife around Tembo Plains Camp includes painted dogs, lions, leopards, buffalo, and elephants, often seen along the river. The camp is located in the Sapi Private Reserve, a 128,000-hectare area converted into a pristine photographic reserve by Great Plains Conservation. Bordering the Mana Pools National Park, this reserve forms part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site and the middle-Zambezi biosphere reserve. Together, these areas provide over 337,000 hectares of protected wilderness, making it one of Africa’s premier wildlife destinations.

The Sapi Private Reserve, formerly a hunting area, was transformed in 2016 into a safe haven for wildlife. This reserve now stands as a testament to our mission of turning vast tracts of Africa into conservation lands. The combined range of the Sapi Reserve and Mana Pools offers our guests unparalleled wildlife experiences in a secluded, natural environment.

At Tembo Plains, your safari experience is designed to be worry-free and immersive. Enjoy day and night wildlife-viewing drives, boating, canoeing, guided walks, and tracking, all included in your stay. Relish our Relais & Châteaux level cuisine and service while you soak up the serene beauty of the Zambezi River and its wildlife-rich surroundings.
