The space Echoes of Eden River Retreat is a beautifully-decorated, luxury safari tent with a spacious slate verandah overlooking the Malewa River valley. The sunken bath tub is perfectly situated for the best views across the valley while ensuring your complete privacy. During the sunny hours, fill the tub with cool water for a private plunge pool and enjoy sunbathing on the reclining adirondack-style chairs. Luxurious bathrobes, towels, and wraps are provided. Watch the sunset around a small fire in the fire pit provided which can also double as a grill. Take a short walk to the riverfront to enjoy collecting stones or dipping in the cool, flowing waters. The beds can be arranged as two twins or a luxurious King size with high quality bedding and warm duvets. Just let us know your preference ahead of time. A hot shower and flushing toilet is also available inside the tent in a separate area that can be partitioned off with zipped 'doors'. The kitchenette is equipped with a medium size fridge to keep cooked food and drinks cold. The freezer provides enough space to make ice or keep food frozen. You can heat up pre-prepared food in the microwave or cook on the grill on the verandah. There is no oven or stove provided for cooking from scratch, however for a minimal fee, we can provide a cook or prepare meals for you if ordered in advance. There is a free parking space dedicated specifically for the River Retreat tent. Guest access You will be free to enjoy the entire property as well as surrounding forest.
