Sleep among the wilds of Africa

Nestled among the grounds of the National Zoo and Aquarium, surrounded on all sides by plentiful wildlife, guests of Jamala Wildlife Lodge can choose between three African-styled accommodation options, each specifically designed to get you up close and personal with the unique residents. Spend the night metres away from bears, cheetahs, tigers and lions in a Jungle Bungalow, marvel at the world’s tallest mammals in the Giraffe Treehouse, or surround yourself with cheeky colobus monkeys and a 200,000-litre shark tank at the uShaka Lodge, all the while indulging in sunset canapes and drinks, gourmet meals inspired by the tastes of Africa and exclusive zoo tours. jamalawildlifelodge.com.au
