Bukela Game Lodge on Amakhala Private Game Reserve
Bukela Game Lodge is a romantic and secluded safari destination tucked away into indigenous trees and bushes at the top of a hidden valley. Our tranquil Lodge, suites and luxury tents are the perfect setting for the intimate guest experiences for which we’re renowned.
Connected by a wooden walkway, our thatched suites and luxury safari tents offer a remarkable private wildlife-viewing experience. Savour a crisp glass of wine in your sun-soaked bath, opening onto trees alive with birdsong. Indulge in sumptuous lunches, private candlelit dinners and as you fall asleep, hear the silence broken by the unmistakeable sounds of elephant and buffalo making their stately progress through the unfenced camp.
It’s our privilege to create moments like these, and to share them with you.
Our lodge may also be booked exclusively as a restful and beautiful venue for small team-building activities, conferences and weddings.
