Hoyo-Hoyo Tsonga Lodge ****

One of Africa’s hidden treasures steeped in modern day opulence; this unique lodge is located on an ancient elephant route in an extensive concession of the Kruger National Park.

Boasting six sumptuous suites, the comfortable and contemporary accommodation resembles a beehive with its earth coloured walls. The rooms house king-size beds, en suite bathrooms, outdoor showers and your own private game viewing decks. The fabrics, decor and ornaments are sourced from the local Tsonga community, whilst the menus offer a traditional taste delicately balanced with a European flair.

The surrounding area provides plenty of opportunity for leisure pursuits; the activities include game drives, guided walks and Nomadic African spa treatments. This luxurious lodge offers an once-in-a-lifetime, interactive cultural African experience.

The menus at the lodge are of a world-class standard, yet served with a traditional flair; breakfast is in a potjie pot or over the coals of a braai, delicately balanced with a European flair to accommodate all tastes. Drinks are served in an authentic calabash and dinner is a delightful social affair.
