The distinctive luxury of Zululand

Thanda Safari Lodge combines Zululand’s authenticity with world-class luxury, meticulously crafted for both the African setting and the contemporary traveler.  The lodge’s nine Bush Suites are designed to mimic a traditional Zulu homestead and provide all the amenities of a luxury hotel.

 The lodge is situated within the Thanda Private Game Reserve, a verdant grassland habitat home to the illustrious Big 5 and more than 400 avian species.  Investigate the reserve by foot or via an open-vehicle safari.  The St Lucia Wetlands’ beaches are approximately an hour’s drive away and provide opportunities for diving amidst the Indian Ocean’s reefs, sharks, and sea turtles.

 Upon returning to the lodge, you will encounter an abundance of luxury.  Every Bush Suite features air conditioning, Wi-Fi, a private plunge pool, and a private dining boma.  Views are accessible from the sun deck or the outdoor sala.  The lodge features a spa, a library, and a wine cellar.
