Decorated in neutral greys, soft greens, and touches of silver, the suites incorporate textured fabrics and subtle patterns, creating a sophisticated ambiance inspired by the lush riverine landscape.

Guests can enjoy a refined dining experience with buffet, à la carte, or continental breakfast options, served in an elegant setting that complements the lodge's serene atmosphere.
