Our Story

I had a farm in Africa, at the foot of the........But this is not about that!
This is about Safara & how she was born out of our love for the wild, the intrigue, the adventure & our need for a sanctuary in the city.

It takes two to tango, and tango we did... in khaki, boots & landrovers... amidst elephants, leopards & hyenas. We trekked in alot of dust & sweltering African sun... & eventually, after many decades, with a passion for all things beautifully quirky... & antique...returned with the bits & bobs that make Safara what she is today. We thought about stringing mozzie nets under the acacias, but that wouldn't have been quite ideal for a city setting, so thus we created our rooms & apartments, to bring you comfort & calm... a space to rejuvenate & escape from the fast paced life outside of our walls.

Of course none of this would be possible without our amazing team. We look forward to welcoming you at Safara & being a part of our ever evolving great adventure.
