Anantara Unveils Its First Luxury Tented Camp in Zambia, Africa

Forming an off-the-grid sanctuary on the Kafue River in Zambia in Africa’s largest national park, Anantara unveils Anantara Tented Camp Kafue River — three years in the making.

The intimate, 13-key camp embraces a warm, contemporary feel and true African modernism with hand-sculpted material and landscape-informed design, shaping the resort’s tent architecture around the surrounding natural beauty.

Families can unwind in one of nine wellness-focused Pool and Bush Villas, with an indoor massage room and private heated plunge pools overlooking the river. Explore luxury with the Presidential Villa, designed for pool-side entertainment and relaxation 11.5 feet above calming water. Enjoy exclusive boat access; private, outdoor deck space; and dedicated villa hosts on hand for meals, activities and spa bookings.

Already curating a one-of-a-kind experience, Anantara Kafue continues to set itself apart with unique offerings like daily meals included in guest stays. Free to dine at any venue suiting guests’ moods, menus range ftom rich Zambia flavors and modern classics to seasonal cocktails and afternoon tea.

As part of the brand’s signature designer dining experience, enjoy delicious eats on a floating platform anchored gently into the river, hosting intimate breakfasts, afternoon tea and sunset wine tasting. Perfect for allocated family time, the sunken central lounge resembles a conversation pit, creating a cocooned space for dining, stargazing and unobtrusive wildlife observation.
