Kariega Game Reserve – Ukhozi Lodge 

Experience the romance of Africa

A cosy, intimate lodge ideal for honeymooners.

Ukhozi Lodge captures the modern romance of safari. This former rustic lodge has recently been rebuilt with a stunning new rim-flow pool for gazing out to the valley from its half-moon edge. The lodge has the charm of a modern farmhouse with exposed wooden beams and stone walls, but has the inescapable feeling of being on safari thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows that let in the outdoors.

Cosy up on a sofa by the lounge fireplace after exhilarating game drives trying to spot the Big Five or take a trip to the new wellness centre for a rejuvenating massage. Or take advantage of Ukhozi Lodge's location close to the Kariega River and go on a river cruise.
