Little Makalolo lies in the heart of Hwange National Park, in one of its best game viewing areas, overlooking a vibrant waterhole. The camp's six rooms have en suite facilities, with both indoor and outdoor showers. Solar power is used for electricity ensuring a lighter environmental footprint.

The living areas include a dining room, lounge, plunge pool and an open fire area for those convivial evening fireside tales. There is a log pile hide overlooking the waterhole in front of camp where guests can enjoy wildlife viewing during the siesta hours.

Activities center on open 4x4 Land Rover game drives and guided nature walks throughout the Makalolo concession. The large number of waterholes in this area attracts game in both quantity and variety, especially in the dry winter months.
