Beautiful lodges facing the nature with animals
Very beautiful lodges, ultra refined decoration facing the arid and wild nature where some animals come to venture. We were able to observe a giraffe from our terrace...

Magical! Incredible food, beautiful rooms
Absolutely magical! Having grown up in the Eastern Cape, it’s always such a treat to return home. Dave was an excellent ranger - so much knowledge about the history of Kwandwe. The food was incredible - couldn’t skip a meal! Beautiful rooms, excellent game viewing. And the first time we had a prawn paella braaied in the bush on our drinks stop. Truly phenomenal.
