From here, guests experience the kind of memorable courtesy, attention and luxury which is unique in Africa. Faux stone columns of bamboo rest on elephant's feet, painted leopards peer through foliage above the hand carved chairs and magnificently laid tables at the Villa del Palazzo.

Legend has it that an ancient civilisation from North Africa journeyed South to build a palace for their much-loved King. They stopped in long-extinguished volcano crater a veritable cradle of life. A place where weird and wonderful creatures, both great and small, roamed free amidst glittering streams and dreamy waterfalls. Here, they built a magnificent palace to befit the surroundings; their King was well-pleased. And so, the palace served as the spiritual centre of their vast empire until an earthquake reduced it to ruins. Now, restored in form and rejuvenated in spirit, The Palace of the Lost City is a modern day marvel that will make your journey, legendary.
