The company is now taking its South African destinations to new heights- literally. The company andBeyond Ngala Treehouse is a one-off, completely private accommodation that surrounds you with the wild bush of the 26,000-acre Ngala Private Game Reserve.

The new, fully solar-powered accommodation is suspended 39-feet in the air and spread out over four levels, all with uninterrupted views. There are two sleeping areas, a full bathroom with an outdoor shower, a third floor that is covered, weatherproofed, and equipped with a king bed. The rooftop also has a sleep-out platform under a retractable awning for the best start-gazing experience of your life. The top floor has a lounge area where guests can enjoy drinks and dinner. The Treehouse’s kitchen will be stocked with a full bar and jars of snacks. If you have any other needs, there is an on-call dedicated attendant.

There is no additional rate for the Treehouse experience, which can be reserved as part of a booked stay at one of the other nearby andBeyond properties. Rates for andBeyond Ngala Safari Lodge start at approximately $700 per person, per night, and rates for andBeyond Ngala Tented Camp start at approximately $845 per person, per night. While the andBeyond Ngala Treehouse stay is certainly a unique one, the treehouse hotel concept is starting to gain popularity worldwide, and one can find other outdoorsy experiences like this one around the world.

No matter where you stay, the treehouse hotel experience is truly the realization of our wildest fantasies and is guaranteed to delight your inner child.
