Phinda Zuka Lodge

Phinda Zuka Lodge is situated in the 22,000 hectare Phinda Private Game Reserve in South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal region. The reserve encompasses an impressive seven diverse ecosystems and an extraordinary range of wildlife, including lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino.

Accommodation & Facilities
Phinda Zuka Lodge is situated in the western region of Phinda Private Game Reserve and is made up of four stylish cottages; these can be booked together or individually. Each cottage overlooks the waterhole in front of the lodge and has an ensuite bathroom with bath and double shower and a private verandah with comfortable chairs to watch any wildlife which may come past. The public areas of the lodge include a library, sitting room with an open fire, dining room, interactive kitchen and a large deck with a swimming pool, which also overlooks the waterhole.

Wildlife & Activities
In addition to twice-daily vehicle based game drives with highly knowledgeable &Beyond rangers and trackers, guests can enjoy canoeing on the Mzinene River. Phinda's close proximity to the Maputaland coastline means that guests can also enjoy beach activities such as snorkelling and scuba diving, deep-sea fishing and beach picnics. The 'Flight of the Fish Eagle' offers guests a birds-eye view of the pristine Maputaland coastline and some of the highest forested sand dunes in the world, as well as the famed iSimangaliso Wetland Park (formerly known as the Greater St Lucia Wetland Park). Horse riding trips outside the reserve around the nearby Saint Lucia lake can also be arranged and paid for locally.
