Hlosi Game Lodge

A typical stay at Bukela includes all meals, two daily game activities and luxury accommodation. Game drives are usually between 3-4 hours, depending on sightings. Enjoy refreshments in the bush during your game drive to stretch the legs and quench your thirsts (in a safe open area away from predators).

Returning from a morning game drive guests can relax before a scrumptious brunch and then either relax by the swimming pool, or take a cruise on the Bushmans River (optional extra).

Other activities from the lodge include historical and cultural sight-seeing, visit to the nearby beaches (20 minutes), golf (1 hour from lodge), shopping & theatre (30-40 minutes), or just relaxing and unwinding in tranquil bush surrounds.

The Amakhala game reserve is home to the Big Five; namely, white rhino, Cape buffalo, elephant, lion and leopard. In addition to these 'prize sightings', guests can also expect to see cheetah, giraffe, black wildebeest, zebra, serval, a variety of 12 different antelope species and if lucky even the elusive aardwolf. This just mentioning the highlights! An abundance of birdlife (250 recorded species) including the African Fish Eagle, Crowned Eagle and Jackal Buzzard.

Bukela offers a lovely bush stay and big five experience for couples, honeymooners and families with children over 12 years old who are looking for personal service and a luxury stay.

Access is easy by either direct flights from Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban to Port Elizabeth, or Bukela can be added onto the end of any Garden Route holiday.
