Beho Beho Camp is not really a camp in the true sense of the word, as it has individual bandas or stone built, palm-leaf thatched cottages, rather than the tented accommodation one might more readily associate with a camp. But also it is not really a safari lodge as it has only eight bandas, four on one side of the main house and four on the other, one tends to think of a safari lodge in terms of something quite a good bit larger. So we like to think of Beho Beho as being more of a home, a very private home situated in the middle of the African bush.
Owned by the Bailey family for over thirty years, they are now prepared to share their ‘home in the bush’ with a fortunate few who are able to share their enjoyment of Beho Beho, one of their favourite places in the world.

The entire family at Beho Beho are committed to one thing – your enjoyment of this very special place. Like any home with eight guest cottages and extensive grounds we need a number of dedicated people to make sure that everything runs smoothly, but unlike a hotel, not everyone has a clear job designation. So you may bump into any member of the family, whatever their position, cleaning your room, changing your bed, serving your breakfast in the bush, or putting clean towels by the pool. Of course some of them concentrate their areas of expertise behind the scenes in the kitchen, trying to impress you at mealtimes with their wonderful creations, or taking you out on a game walk or other activity, but all share the love of the wild African bush and have a desire for you to experience this love during your stay.
From the moment you arrive in camp until the time it is time to move on, this is your home and we want you to enjoy it. Sometimes it feels to us like a huge and never ending house party, new arrivals are soon ’embraced’ by the family and established guests, friendships are made whilst being ‘awed’ by the natural beauty of the Selous and around candlelit dinner tables under the stars, and when it is time to leave there is no sadness for it has been fun and we can always come back to rejoin the party – as many of our guests do.

Beho Beho has 8 individual very spacious Bandas, (stone built and palm thatched cottages) furnished with king-sized beds, Zanzibari day beds, writing desks and comfortable ‘suite’ furniture. The front of the banda is totally open and extends on to a spacious verandah. The banda can be secured for the night with ‘tented curtains’ or left open as desired. Each banda has a separate dressing room leading into an en suite bathroom with twin basins, high flush WC and an ‘open air’ shower.
