kabarsula Anantara celebrates 25 years with Tented Camp Kafue River, its first property in Africa bandar SLOT INDONESIA

Anantara has unveiled its first safari property in Africa in the same year it celebrates its 25th anniversary.

Anantara Tented Camp Kafue River is a 13-key property that sits on the Kafue River in Zambia’s largest national park.

The property is set on rosewood platforms to protect essential wildlife corridors, with private river frontage offering uninterrupted views of a thriving wilderness where hippos, elephants, large predators, antelope and more than 500 bird species flourish.

Lead-in rates start from US$6,300 per room per night (around AU$9000), based on two people sharing a suite and inclusive of full board, premium beverages, twice-daily game drives, personalised butler service and one 90-minute spa treatment per person, per stay.

Camp highlights

Meg Ralph Spaces designed the camp, which runs on solar power with on site water purification and minimal single use plastics. Anantara Kafue embodies African modernism through clean lines, materials shaped by hand and landscape‑informed design.

The camp’s signature feature, the three 110‑square‑metre Horizon Terrace Suites, stay 14.3 metres above the ground and are accessible by a glass elevator that dissolves into the landscape. The upper deck focuses on open‑air living, with a star bed for sleepouts beneath the night sky.

Nine 115‑square‑metre Pool and Bush Villas rise 3.5 metres above the ground on timber platforms, each one a tented sanctuary immersed in the landscape.

As part of the brand’s signature Designer Dining experience, a floating platform anchored gently into the river hosts intimate breakfasts, afternoon tea and sunset wine tasting. Seating up to four guests who arrive by boat, the  wooden pontoon sits almost at water level.

Additionally, a floating Technogym fitness platform sits on the river with sliding doors that open directly to the landscape, an outdoor deck for yoga and a wooden swing positioned in a quiet spot facing the water.
