They consist of a cozy, comfortable lofted bed over a built-in bathroom underneath. The Birdhouses can accommodate couples and solo travelers. The bathroom offers a solar-heated rainfall shower on top of the teak shower floor. If desired, the bottom sliding door to the bathroom can be opened to be able to use the toilet with a view. The bathroom has been adorned with pine wood from Kibuye forests and the fixtures contain muvula wood accented with steel.

The Pod features a front-facing view of the lake from both the bedroom and the bathroom.
