Phinda Private Game Reserve is set within easy reach of the Indian Ocean coastline and the famous Greater St Lucia Wetland Park in northern KwaZulu-Natal.

With only a handful of lodges sharing the area, guests are assured of an exclusive game viewing experience. Adding to Phinda’s wildlife charms, the marine diversity of nearby Sodwana on the coast is easily accessible and offers scuba diving, fishing and even turtle watching. Other lodges on the Phinda Reserve: Forest Lodge, Vlei Lodge, Rock Lodge and Mountain Lodge. The Homestead lies within the western regions of the Phinda Reserve.
