PRIVATE ISLAND EXPERIENCE
It prides itself on an earth-first philosophy, with a relaxed environment built upon the tenets of authenticity, excellent service, and respect for its islands’ natural wonders. With six islands, three lagoons, 13 beaches and 100 hectares of untouched forest, guests have their own natural playground to explore.
For accommodation, choose from an overwater bungalow, beach suite, or garden suite, all designed with natural materials like bamboo and recycled wood to blend seamlessly with the lush surroundings. Dining at Bawah Reserve is a refined yet sustainable experience, with a focus on fresh, locally sourced ingredients and a farm-to-table approach. The Reserve offers two restaurants, two bars and endless private dining experiences across its six islands.
Aura spa offers traditional spa therapies designed to relax, invigorate and rejuvenate, with all-natural ingredients and handmade scrubs complementing every spa ritual. Daily movement classes are designed to bring true balance to body, mind and soul. Scheduled group classes and one daily spa treatment are included in your stay.
For a moment of peace, head to the Wallace Library, a quiet sanctuary with books, games and sunset views of the main lagoon.

We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.
Jonny took the time to discuss all the options with us and tailored every detail to our wishes. He suggested thoughtful add-ons, arranged excellent guides, and created a brilliant itinerary packed with maps, tips, and all the information we needed for exploring the two countries we visited. An absolute trip of a lifetime to Argentina and Brazil.
