Chitwa Chitwa Safari Lodge South Africa

.

Built in traditional African style, the cottages all have a direct sea-view and so offer an exclusive yet sheltered setting for observing wild animals.

Caution, wild animals crossing

Nothing but African bush, witnessed in an open Land Rover with an experienced ranger. Even in thrilling situations, he keeps his hands firmly on the steering wheel. Scouts keep a lookout for wild animals. Guests sit safely in the back. There’s a lot to experience here. After all, your trained companions really know their way about the South African bush.

Nature as far as the eye can see. It is the combination of originality, wilderness, luxury and privacy that makes the Chitwa Chitwa Lodge a very special experience.

Entwined with native greenery, the straw-covered roof tops of the exclusive wooden huts rise up into the blue sky.

There’s water in sufficient amounts in the Chitwa Chitwa Lodge. All the cottages of the Game Lodge are right by the lakeside. An adjoining private pool provides the necessary refreshment after a hot safari in the small hours of the morning. A first-rate breakfast can be served here too on request.

The elongated wooden roof structures create an impression of protection and security.

A noble but yet relaxed atmosphere prevails in the Chitwa Chitwa dining room. Completely in keeping with the style of the hotel. Different decorative elements are mixed together in a lively way here too. Just like the furniture. Now and again, guests all sit at one table and enjoy the wide variety of dishes together. Every meal is a culinary feast, whether typical South African specialities or Mediterranean-style nouvelle cuisine, whether it’s enjoyed under tall roofs or under the starry African sky - it never gets boring. Especially when the friendly waiters serve you exquisite wines from the very well stocked wine cellar.

There’s a veranda with a view of the lake in front of every cottage. Let’s see who’ll come by soon - an antelope, a zebra or even an elephant.

The cottages blend almost invisibly into the surroundings. And they offer complete privacy. Here, the jungle comes right up to your window. It’s no wonder then that guests happily enthuse about unforgettable moments.

The vast bedrooms offer exclusive comfort.

There are inviting, private niches in the lounges of all the suites in Chitwa Chitwa. In addition, each suite has its own dressing room.

Each cottage has its own unmistakable charm and offers a lot of space for privacy. They all have one thing in common though: cosy areas to sit in, comfortable bathrooms, private sun decks and an uninterrupted view of the lake beside which wild animals bustle about. From here, you can happily enjoy a view of the unmistakable variety of an African nature reserve in which man is gladly at home as a spectator.

What about having a bath in the open air? Well, it almost feels like that. Behind the high glass windows, you can relax and enjoy a reviving bath. And observe nature at the same time.
