Ja, I was wondering about that platform on top of the accomm as well... 0*\ And it looks really nice from the inside, but with people coming and going all the time it certainly wouldn't be an option. Particularly not considering some of the tourist won't be able to understand the "Residents Only" sign at the gate to the driveway of that unit. :twisted:

First of all, =O: =O: =O:

Secondly, from the above link: it’s always a pleasure to work with SANParks as they take good care of facilities within their jurisdiction

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

You could run a informal coffee shop and sell drinks and snacks to the visitors to fund the accommodation cost O**

:O^ :O^ :O^

the result of popular tourist demand to have secluded accommodation facilities with a breathtaking view

I guess it depends on what your definition of "secluded" is. :-?

a luxurious one bedroom apartment

Actually, it's a studio apartment. There is no separate bedroom.

separate ablution facilities

Does this mean the public toilets on the other side of the parking area? -O-

You get your own ablutions as far as I gathered, but they are detached from the accommodation unit. O**
