Deception Valley Lodge is situated next to the north-eastern border of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve in 15,000 hectares of privately owned, pristine Kalahari bush.

The lodge accommodates up to sixteen people on a sharing basis. The lodge is private and restful. Each stilted unit stands separately and is connected to the main lodge by wooden walkways.

The main complex has a dining room, lounge and bar area decorated in warm Kalahari colours which make use of Bushmen and other African artefacts. From the deck you can view game activity at the nearby water hole. The lodge has an ethnic African theme and was built to fit into the surrounding bush without altering, damaging or detracting from its ambiance and colour.

Activities include early morning and late afternoon/early evening safaris with open 4X4 vehicles, night drives to explore the nocturnal species and bird watching with over 200 species, from the deck at the main lodge or in a hide at one of the water holes. Guests can also enjoy guided walks with the Bushmen to explore their culture, survival and hunting skills and their extraordinary knowledge of the veldt and animal life.
