Africa’s Finest Dining in the Bush

White Glove Service

The exquisite Rhino Royale is ARU’s newest venture that has taken the world by storm. Set on one of the most picturesque locations on the Kalakwa reserve, it boasts a nine course menu & wine pairing evening which makes for a sensational, never-before seen experience in Namibia. The apt music transposes you into this old world setting, and seated amongst the bow ties, feathers and sequins, there seems nothing more appropriate than having the white-gloved service of a quiet but ever present butler caring for your every whim.

World-class cuisine with an ever changing 9 course menu, with contemporary cuisine fusing local, seasonal ingredients with an international flair. Our chefs take simple ingredients, many of which are harvested on the property and treat them with the same care and attention as those that are a great delicacy.

Join us for an unforgettable evening,

or reserve the Rhino Royale as your secret private getaway accommodation with your own butler, game viewer, bed under the stars and sceneries like nowhere else has to offer.
