8 Suites on Lake St Lucia

A suite at dusk, its sliding doors open from the lit bedroom onto a private deck with two armchairs.

Five Luxury Suites

A suite for two, among the trees.

Raised on timber in the coastal forest and reached by boardwalk, each Luxury Suite opens onto a private deck with an outdoor bath and shower, looking into the trees.

Up to 3 adults

Fully inclusive R10,880 per person sharing

The Family Suite’s main bedroom with its lamps lit: the king bed beneath timber trusses, the second bedroom through the doorway and the doors open to the deck.

Two Family Suites

Two rooms in the forest, one of them the children’s own.

Each Family Suite is raised on a timber deck in the coastal forest. The main bedroom, with its king bed beneath exposed timber trusses, opens straight into a twin-bedded room for the children: close enough to hear them, private enough to rest.

2 adults and 2 children (12 yrs and under), max 3 adults

Fully inclusive R32,645 per suite per night (2 adults and 2 children)

The Honeymoon Suite alone in the coastal forest at sunset, with Lake St Lucia beyond the trees.

The Honeymoon Suite

Alone together, at the edge of the wetland.

Set apart from the main lodge in coastal forest, the Honeymoon Suite stands on stilts, its walls opening to the deck and the wetland grasses. At sunset the sky turns apricot over Lake St Lucia; at dusk the lamps come on, and the evening is yours alone.

2 adults

Fully inclusive R11,680 per person sharing

A window seat in a suite with a botanical cushion, an open wildlife guide and reading glasses, forest beyond.
