Phinda Mountain Lodge
Phinda Private Game Reserve, South Africa
Gold price level
Mango Opinion
Phinda is a great location. Visitors can enjoy activities ranging from safaris in 4x4 vehicles in highly concentrated game areas to day trips to the beach and the Indian Ocean. Phinda Mountain Lodge is especially great for family safaris. The charter between the greater Kruger National Park and Phinda is expensive, but we like how the regions complement each other.
Perched on a hilltop, with wraparound views of the lush Lebombo foothills, Phinda Mountain Lodge is the ultimate family safari destination in Phinda Private Game Reserve. This iconic reserve encompasses 28,555 hectares of protected wildlife land in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Showcasing one of the continent’s finest game viewing experiences, the reserve is home to Africa’s Big Five, as well as 436 bird species.
Phinda Mountain Lodge features three room types, with 16 suites, six cottages (that can be turned into three adjoining family cottages), and one family suite. Private decks provide breathtaking views. Each accommodation option features an outdoor shower, well-stocked personal bars and private plunge pools.
In the main area, guests can enjoy meals in the interactive kitchen, complete with a pizza oven. A traditional boma provides the ultimate setting for al fresco dinners. A rim flow pool follows the natural curves of the mountain, while a new gym is ideal for fitness fanatics, and a massage sala is available for those wanting to indulge in treatments.
Choose from day and night safari dries, walking safaris, sleep-outs under the stars, and more. Also, on offer outside of the reserve, are Zulu village tours, Africa Foundation community visits, a Maputaland exploration, Maputaland beach adventures, night turtle drives (seasonal), scuba safaris, or an incredible ocean safari.
