Ecca Lodge offers an indoor-outdoor lifestyle embracing the African wilderness. Set in the heart of the Private Reserve overlooking a valley, the lodge offers breath-taking views onto an escarpment of shale cliffs. A highlight of the main guest area is a wooden viewing deck that showcases the exceptional views.
With only six suites, the lodge is intimate, relaxed and trendy, with decor inspired by the natural textures of the African bush. The luxury suites accommodate two adults each, while the private vehicle suites host up to two adults and two children and include an exclusive vehicle and dedicated guide. Kids under 12 (maximum 2) in the private vehicle suites stay complimentary. All rooms have private plunge pools and outdoor showers to enhance the connection with nature.
All guests at Ecca can enjoy twice daily game drives, nature walks and big game walking safaris. Guests in Private Vehicle Suites are allocated a private guide and vehicle. At the lodge, The Den is ideally equipped to keep little hands busy for hours and a shared lodge pool provides the perfect place for a communal splash. Additional family activities include board games, scavenger hunts & more.
The nearest major airport is Port Elizabeth (PLZ), 160 km (100 miles) from the reserve. Daily flights are available from Cape Town (CPT) and Johannesburg (JNB) international airports. From Port Elizabeth, it’s a 2-hour drive or a scenic helicopter flight (inquire for costs) to Kwandwe Private Game Reserve. Alternatively, for a truly exclusive arrival, land directly on the reserve’s private Category 3 airstrip. Inquire for details on charter flights and GPS coordinates.
