    Overview

    Kwandwe Great Fish River Lodge, a place where the vastness of this wild continent is truly all around you. This lodge was designed to showcase the spectacular scenery that the Kwandwe Private Game Reserve has to offer, with indoor-outdoor living and nine independent suites. Floor-to-ceiling framed glass doors fold back to reveal an uninterrupted wilderness complemented by en-suite bathrooms featuring an outdoor shower as well as an indoor bath and shower. Relax by your private plunge pool with a drink from your personal in-room bar on your private thatched terrace with unmatched views over the sweeping landscape beyond. After days spent on safari, unwind in the supreme comfort of your king-sized bed and cocoon in fresh linens with a star-filled view.

    Kwandwe Great Fish River Lodge offers unique spa treatments inspired by, designed and based on Africa’s rich heritage. Relax and rejuvenate during your safari with treatments ranging from manicures, pedicures, reflexology and full body massage in the privacy of your suite.

    Explore the natural splendour of Kwandwe on early morning and late afternoon/evening game drives in an open 4x4 safari vehicle or experience the thrill of tracking big game (white rhino, black rhino, elephant and buffalo) on a bush walk. With highly qualified and experienced rangers and tracker teams on hand, guests have the flexibility to tailor-make their safari and connect with Africa in whichever way they choose.

    About Kwandwe Private Game Reserve

    Nestled in the heart of South Africa’s unspoilt Eastern Cape province lies Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, a world-class Big Five safari destination.

    The 22,000 hectares of pristine private wilderness stretches either side of the Great Fish River which meanders for 30 kilometres through scenic landscape and comprises just twenty-six rooms split across five very individual and distinct safari lodges and villas, according to one of the highest land to guest ratios in South Africa. Renowned for quality guiding, understated luxury and the thousands of animals and wildlife that call the Reserve home, Kwandwe offers a range of safari activities and accommodation options to make every African Dream come true.
