Stayed at: Hluhluwe River Lodge Chalets
Wonderful escape
Beautiful units, absolutely excellent service and assistance from the staff. The view from the deck is amazing. They have a 4km walk on the property where you can see Nyala, Impala, tortoise and other small animals. Couldn't recommend them enough.

A great place to get away and recharge
Loved our short stay at Hluhluwe River Lodge. The view was superb and the buck feeding in our front garden was just so special. The service was excellent. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. The game drive was great and we saw 4 of the Big 5!!!

Accommodation Description
Hluhluwe River Lodge Chalets provide a lush forest escape within a ravine on Lake St Lucia in KwaZulu Natal. Tucked under towering trees and surrounded by nature, these chalets offer a peaceful retreat where guests can disconnect from the world and embrace tranquillity. The charming, secluded chalets are crafted with natural materials and positioned to blend seamlessly with the pristine landscape.
The chalets at Hluhluwe River Lodge offer a unique blend of comfort and nature, with each one designed to give you a restful haven. Built on stilts and featuring thatched roofs and wooden decks, they offer expansive views of the forest garden. Whether you're staying in a standard chalet or the self-catering Santa Rosa or Mkhulu’s House, you'll experience cosy interiors, air-conditioning, and en suite bathrooms. Some accommodations are designed for families or groups seeking added privacy and independence.
Setting Description
Set among a lush ravine in Zululand, the chalets are surrounded by the serene beauty of Lake St Lucia, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The forest setting creates a sense of seclusion, where you can enjoy the sounds of nature from your private deck. The area offers the perfect balance of forest tranquillity and proximity to local attractions, making it an ideal location for both relaxation and adventure.
Guests at Hluhluwe River Lodge can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, from guided safaris to bird watching and nature walks. The nearby iSimangaliso Wetland Park offers plenty of opportunities to engage with the area's rich biodiversity. For those looking to unwind, enjoy the lodge’s relaxing pool or immerse themselves in local culture at nearby heritage sites and attractions.

*The Isimangaliso Wetland Park is 332 000 hectares and consists of both beach and bush destinations. It was listed as South Africa’s first World Heritage Site in December 1999
*Hluhluwe River Lodge is a great location if you want to explore.
The Memorial gate is a 30-minute drive from the lodge and the coastal and marine reserves of Sodwana Bay, Cape Vidal and St Lucia are just an hour's drive from the lodge
*Game drives: Hluhluwe iMfolozi Park is 97 000 hectares in extent and consists of two distinct areas namely the northern Hluhluwe section and the southern iMfolozi section. To fully appreciate the whole area one would need a full day to explore the Park. This can either be done as a self-drive ( in your own vehicle without a guide ) or with a professional Safari operator in an open-game viewing vehicle. (Subject to availability)
*Mountain biking: We recommend a ride to False Bay Park which is a 2300-hectare reserve hugging the western shoreline of Lake St Lucia, and forms part of the iSimangaliso Wetland Park. This is a 20-kilometre ride which is flat and easy to ride for novice riders. This wonderfully scenic ride passes through beautiful coastal forests on smooth tar and gravel roads and there are a number of lookout points for picnic stops. The lodge provides helmets, gloves and backpacks for carrying water and a picnic snack
Walking: Upon request, we offer guided walks into False Bay Park which includes forest and lakeshore experiences where the focus is on the little details and magic of our greatest asset, the Sand Forest
Other adventure activities: Horse trails, mountain bike trails, guided or self-guided walks, Evening Spider walks, Pineapple tours, animal interaction etc
