Kariega River Lodge is nestled along the banks of the Bushman's River in the private Kariega Game Reserve of the malaria-free Eastern Cape.

Highlights

  • Kariega Game Reserve is the perfect setting for exciting safari vacations, with an abundance of wildlife, including the Big Five: lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo, and leopard.
  • Between game drives, there’s plenty of time to go on a guided walking safari, paddle along the Bushman’s River, try your hand at fishing, or enjoy a river cruise down to the pretty village of Kenton-on-Sea.

You Should Know

  • No children under 10 years old are allowed.

The Details

Staying in this peaceful riverside location allows you to unwind and relax, while also enjoying the thrilling experience of a big game safari.

The ten thatched suites all feature a spacious bedroom with king-size or twin beds, an en-suite bathroom with shower, bathrobes, air conditioning, a heater, an in-room safe, a fan, tea and coffee-making facilities, satellite television, a minibar, and a private patio. Some suites even have their own swimming pool. If yours doesn’t, the main lodge pool with its tranquil river views is always available. A few of the suites overlook the river, while most enjoy views of the reserve's serene bushveld.

The lodge facilities include a comfortable lounge, dining area, outdoor boma, bar, library, spa, swimming pool, and a nearby gym.

Kariega River Lodge is ideal for solo explorers, couples, and families looking for a luxury safari getaway.

I cannot recommend booking with Safari.com. I had an emergency arise and needed to change the booking (just 24 hours after I paid in full) and was refused any solutions. I have now paid in full for a safari that I did not take, nor did they do any work to schedule. Book with caution or not at all.
