Lion Encounter | Wildlife Habitats on a Resort

Cheetah Encounter

Step into the wild — without ever leaving the resort! Join the Wildlife Adventures Team for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes experience with Leilani, Savannah, and Kamara, the resident cheetahs on loan with a foster program.

The journey begins in the commissary, where you'll learn the secrets of carnivore nutrition and watch as the team prepares a specialized meal. Then, venture to the cheetahs’ indoor habitat for an up-close encounter of a fascinating training session. From a safe viewing distance, observe as one of the trained team members engages the cheetahs in cooperative care behaviors and shares captivating stories about their unique personalities, natural history, and the conservation and repopulation efforts Nemacolin proudly supports by caring for these magnificent creatures.

While you won’t get close enough to feel their agility, you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for these magnificent cats and their role in the wild. It’s an unforgettable opportunity to encounter the world's fastest land animal … at a slightly slower pace!
