About this place
Kwena Lodge is Gondwana's original 5-star adults-only safari lodge, set on a malaria-free 11,000-hectare fynbos wilderness between Cape Town and the Garden Route. Inspired by the traditional Khoi huts of the Outeniqua San, the lodge blends bespoke African architecture with breathtaking views of the Outeniqua & Langeberg mountains.

Rates are full board, including breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner and twice-daily open-vehicle game drives with qualified rangers tracking the Big Five. Beverages and optional activities (private drives, guided fynbos walks, Bush Spa treatments) are charged separately.
