Situated in the Amakala Big Five Game Reserve, Bush Lodge offers an intimate lodge experience. It features an outdoor swimming pool, viewing deck and a number of game drives and bush walks.

The luxury tents have a deck with private plunge pool and views of the surrounding bush. They come with thatched roofs and wooden floors, as well as a fireplace and minibar.

Our three days at Bush Lodge were amazing. The accommodation was perfect (we appreciated the private plunge pool and loved the large comfortable bed). The meals varied and delicious. Most of all were the six game drives with James (JD) at the helm. We saw a wide variety of animals including 4 of the Big 5. Thanks to a wonderful team for making our little vacation memorable.

This 2-bedroom luxury family safari tent has a full private bathroom, air conditioning, electric blankets and a mini-bar. The main bedroom has a lounge area, and there are 3 viewing decks.

An absolutely fantastic few weeks at Hlosi. From the moment we arrived the staff couldn't have been friendlier. We were told we were on holiday and not to lift a finger! Our room was wonderful, with a large walk in shower, bath and even outdoor shower. We had a deck overlooking the reserve and would see wild game from there every morning. The food was lovely and plentiful. We had the most spectacular game drives. Again, the staff were all wonderful and we have memories that will last a lifetime. I would absolutely recommend staying at Hlosi.

    The tents are great- super comfy bed, hot powerful shower, lovely to have our own balcony not overlooked by other tents. I loved having communal meals and speaking to the other guests, the food was great and there was so much of it! The game drives were great, our guide Kristen was so enthusiastic and knowledgable and able to answer all our questions without hesitation! We didn’t have the best weather but even with rainy game drives and thunderstorms overnight we had the most fantastic stay.

    Stunning place, absolute luxury for tents in the Bush, in the middle of nowhere. Such a treat to live almost alongside the animals (from a safe distance!) and to observe in natural surroundings. Saw so many beautiful creatures and I loved that the lodge was respectful and conscious of the environment in terms of the minimal impact construction of the accommodation (beautifully equipped luxury tents) and yet struck a really lovely balance with comfort and beautiful design. A very special experience that we will treasure forever.
