The actress met the hotelier while staying at Phum Baitang, Zannier’s laid-back lodge near Siem Rap, Cambodia. During a five-month stay, she convinced Zannier to set down roots for not one, but two lodges in Namibia.

Oshiwambo, meaning “rhinoceros,” gives its name to the 10-room lodge that’s located in the heart of the 22,000-acre game reserve managed by N/a’an ku sê, one of the country’s premier conservation organizations. Like the name, everything about the lodge flows organically from the sights, sounds, and culture of this wide, savannah-covered corner of Namibia. The camp’s hut-like buildings rise out of the dusty plains looking right at home thanks to their traditional Ovambo architecture—think rounded, natural clay walls and hand-finished thatched roofs.

While out on drives during the day, you’ll look out for banded mongoose, Pangolins, and caracal alongside zebras, giraffes and hyenas. Though elephants and rhinoceroses do not roam freely through the concession, the centre of the reserve is home to a sprawling, state-of-the-art hospital (funded by the Jolie-Pitt Foundation) for animals that have been injured or abandoned. There, you’ll get an intimate look at the animals, and gain a deeper respect for those that dedicate their lives to help rehab the country’s wildlife, which has flourished under more serious protective programs were put in place in the mid-1990s.

Spend your days out in the bush or lending a helping hand at the hospital, topping it off with a dip in the property’s infinity-edge pool, overlooking the reserve. You may just spot golden-maned lions lounging off the day’s heat as the sun slips below the savannah’s vast horizon.
