Frequently asked questions

Do you have a back up generator?

As Le Gite is in a remote area, the national power network cuts from time to time. However, at Le Gite we have solar lights that will assist at night but the water heater for instance won't work at that time. We also suggest that our guests come with their own torch.

Do you have a swimming pool?

At Le Gite we DO NOT have a swimming pool. However, we have a number of connections with local hotels near by. We highly recommend swimming at Elephant Hab Lodge. The lodge is just a 10 to 15 minute walk from Le Gite and we promise you will not be disappointed upon arrival.
