We’re really happy to be the first Starlight-certified place to stay in Africa. It’s a tremendous honor, particularly because the night sky is such an important aspect of our natural environment here. This accreditation also helps Stellar travel, which promotes astronomy, protects the night sky, and encourages environmentally friendly travel. It is based on the Declaration on the Defense of the Night Sky and the Right to Starlight, and it honors places that work to preserve the stars beautiful. Organizations from all across the globe support it. The sky at our position is 21.7 mag/arcsec² pure, thus it’s an excellent area to observe stars. It’s like a door to the universe.
