Hotel review

The two bedroomed Private House at Elsa's Kopje is set away from the main lodge but enjoys the same spectacular views of the plains around. It is ideal for couples or families who seek a little more privacy. With an Arab-inspired interior, the house is serviced by its own collection of staff and has its own pool giving you a wonderful feeling of exclusivity. Meru has long been held by real safari fans as the park to visit due to its diverse topography and interesting wildlife. If you visit and can afford it, stay in the private house.
