A member of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux group, Kwandwe is described by Fodor's as 'one of the least discovered, culturally rich and unspoilt wilderness areas in South Africa'. It offers guests the Big Five and a choice of four excellent lodges. The Great Fish River Lodge overlooks the river and comprises nine lavish suites, each with a private observation deck, plunge pool and a distinctive decor that mixes African artefacts, Persian rugs, rough-hewn yellowwood and antique furniture. Further into the reserve and ideal for friends and families, Uplands Homestead is a three bedroom farmhouse with a swimming pool that is available on an exclusive basis, while the funky and vibrant six suite Ecca Lodge offers an upbeat family safari with modern cuisine to satisfy sophisticated palates. The newest addition, Melton Manor, is a warm, contemporary frontier farmhouse with four en suite bedrooms that can be reserved for exclusive use or individually. Alongside the Big Five, Kwandwe is home to cheetah, kudu, hippo and many other species. As well as game drives, guests can take bush walks along the river, marvel at the unusual birdlife and reflect on the region's rich social, cultural, military and archaeological past. Kwandwe's Rhino Monitoring Programme allows guests a unique insight into ecology and conservation of these threatened creatures in the comfort of a private vehicle and on foot.
