Tented Accommodations

The Deluxe Bush Camp offers double glamping-style tents with a seating area, dining area, electricity, fridge, and private bathroom with shower. The tents feature electric blankets for colder nights, an honesty bar setup, and board games available. Note: generator runs only during meal times, so early morning coffee on your deck is not possible.

Onsite Dining

The lodge restaurant serves breakfast, dinner, and bar drinks. Guests report the food as good, though vegetarian options are limited. Meals are prepared by a chef (Priscilla), and the service is excellent.

Activities & Game Drives

The reserve offers game drives, quad biking, canoeing, bush walks, and hiking. The guided game drive in a high-platform Range Rover covers tracks that are rough. You may see zebras, antelopes, springbok, giraffes, ostriches, and white lions in a separate enclosed area. The game drive ends with sundowner drinks among giraffes and zebras.

Location & Access

Inkwenkwezi Private Game Reserve is 200 metres from the reserve entrance, 30 km from Gonubie Golf Club, and 32 km from East London Golf Club. East London Airport is 42 km away. The property offers a paid airport shuttle. Access requires a 4x4 drive along a bumpy track from reception; the road from the highway is in poor condition.

Services Offered

The property provides free WiFi, free parking, a safety deposit box, laundry services, meeting/banquet facilities, a shared lounge/TV area, and a bar. A paid airport shuttle is available. There is no swimming pool. The reception area is described as run-down, but the staff (guide JP, chef Priscilla, and owner) are friendly. The website is limited; guests recommend booking by calling reception directly.

“Inkwenkwezi feels genuinely lost in the bush yet remarkably well-cared for, a balance struck by its warm staff and the sheer scope of activities available, from immersive game drives led by guides like JP to quad biking and canoeing. The reserve's terrain itself presents an adventure, and the intimate lodging, combined with well-prepared food, creates a deeply grounding escape into nature.”
