Thanda Safari Lodge
Surrounded by nature and overflowing with authentic African adventures, Thanda Safari Lodge is where you head when you’re looking to escape. It’s hard to imagine a more luxurious retreat that’s at one with nature and the ever-present spirit of the Zulu nation. Join the day or night guided safaris to see abundant wildlife, including exclusive close encounters with Africa’s infamous Big Five or enjoy a leisurely hippo and crocodile cruise. The private game reserve setting not only increases your chances of watching wildlife, but also offers numerous opportunities to get out and explore. Nature photography tours, stargazing and cultural excursions all add to the experience of being in Africa. Life at the lodge is equally rewarding. And, in between activities, build in time to relax and soak up this natural paradise. Read a book in the library at the main lodge, head to the spa or sit back and spot wildlife at the waterhole. Admire the sunset from the daybed on your private deck or take a dip in your private plunge pool. Dining under the stars is always so much more romantic when you’re in Africa. Certainly so if you’re sitting at a candle-lit table within the safe confines of an open-air boma. There’s also a wine cellar and cigar bar if you’re looking to kick back after a delicious evening meal. And as Thanda Safari Lodge has a maximum capacity of just 18 guests it’s not hard to find a perfect pocket of peace and privacy. Minimum two-night stay – highly recommended.
