The Dhow Suite at Zarafa, an immense 210 square metres (2,260 sq ft), is set under beige, flowing canvas with canopy ceilings and completely open (yet netted) sides. Entering through the heavy wood Lamu door transports guests into a lavish space of deep reds, browns, brass and copper, evoking richness and beauty. Central to the Dhow Suite is a full lounge and dining area with a fitted dining table, coffee table with cappuccino machine, and a full-length leather couch and chairs.

Two large bedrooms are positioned on either side of the main area, each designed with an open-layout bathroom featuring an impressive copper claw-foot bath, indoor shower, separate loo and double basins. A large decking area fronts the suite, with a 5 x 2.5 metre swimming pool, exercise bike and outdoor showers for each room, all overlooking pristine Botswana wilderness. The adjoining main camp has a curio shop, and in-room massage treatments are also available.
