GweGwe Beach Lodge, 2 nights from R9 000 pps

If your idea of paradise involves unspoiled landscapes, pristine coastlines, and a symphony of nature’s wonders, then pack your bags and set your compass to GweGwe Beach Lodge in the Mkambati Nature Reserve. A hidden gem along the Wild Coast in South Africa, this is where luxury and adventure take centre stage. This MICHELIN Key lodge offers a stay that’s as unique as it is unforgettable. There are not many places in the world you can watch wildlife on land and dolphins (and even whales) offshore.

GweGwe Beach Lodge is located on a 5,000-hectare private concession within the Mkambati Nature Reserve, Eastern Cape. This prime location on the South African coast is malaria-free with warm sea waters offshore all year round and the most extraordinary scenery plus wildlife (all non-dangerous game). Pristine rivers, tumbling waterfalls (inland and directly into the sea), deep gorges, rolling grasslands, pockets of dense swamp forest, and beautiful secluded beaches are just some of the highlights of this heavenly coastal destination. This fabulous reserve is situated along the “Wild Coast” in the Eastern Cape between Port Edward & Port St Johns and must rank as one of the most beautiful coastal reserves anywhere in Africa.
