What We Say
This luxurious lodge has only six suites for just twelve guests, while the exclusive Zindoga Villa is ideally suited to the family traveller, or the client who prefers a more private, luxury experience.

This standout among safari lodges South Africa is built along the bank of a seasonal stream. An open-plan dining room and lounge merge with the wooden deck which lies in the shade of gigantic Leadwood trees, around which the main facility was constructed. An impressive suspension bridge connects the living areas with the suites, which lie scattered beyond the river bed.

The sole objective of the team of professionally skilled staff is to meet the needs of you, their guest. To indulge, spoil, pamper and entertain. And, importantly, to share with them the story and the experience of the elephants.
