Deception Valley Lodge is a comfortable and peaceful camp situated on its own private concession.
All of the lodge buildings are raised up off the ground.
Deception Valley Lodge has eight chalets...
...and all have very inviting, comfortable twin or double beds.
Enjoy the luxury of an en-suite bathroom...
...that allows you to take pleasure in a hot shower or  bath.
Make yourself at home in your private living room.
The interior of the lodge is decorated in an African style...
...as is the bar where most drinks are included.
At dinner time the guests gather around the dining table...
...to take pleasure in the substantial and freshly prepared meals.
We always find the food here very good.
The main area is where guests will find the comfortable lounge...
...and outside there is also the possibility to relax at the pool.
Activities at Deception Valley Lodge focus heavily on walks and drives with local bushmen...
...who will teach you how to start a fire...
... and show you how their ancestors lived.
There is the option to go walking during the day...
...or head out on a game drive during the day...
...or at night.
