Spacious Forest Suites

Each air-conditioned suite includes a seating area, patio, free Wi-Fi, DVD player, and satellite TV. The extra-long beds feature luxury linens, and bathrooms offer premium amenities. Some suites, like the Forest Suite and Deluxe Double Room with Balcony and Sea View, have a private plunge pool, outdoor shower, or balcony overlooking the forest or ocean.

Global Cuisine

The restaurant serves African, Asian, and French cuisine. The chef prepares designer meals upon request, and special diet menus (gluten-free, lactose-free) are available. Breakfast includes made-to-order omelettes and crisp croissants. The bar offers wine, champagne, and other drinks, with breakfast-in-room and coffee house options.

Spa & Activities

The spa and wellness centre features an outdoor swimming pool, hot tub, sauna, steam room, and massage treatments. Yoga classes and guided walking tours are offered. On-site activities include golf (nearby Olivewood golf course), hiking, cycling, horse riding, canoeing, and fishing. The beach is a 6-minute walk away for swimming and snorkelling.

Coastal Forest Location

Prana Lodge is set within the Wild Coast forest in Chinsta Bay, 42 km from East London. It is a 6-minute walk to the beach and close to the Olivewood golf course and a local brewery in Cintsa. An airport shuttle and general shuttle service are available.

Guest Services

The 24-hour front desk provides luggage storage and safety deposit boxes. Daily housekeeping, laundry, and ironing services are offered. The hotel has meeting and banquet facilities, non-smoking rooms, and facilities for disabled guests. Room service is available, and packed lunches can be arranged.

“The exclusivity here, with just eight rooms, cultivates a truly special atmosphere, where each suite feels like a private sanctuary, particularly with the thoughtful touches like plunge pools and outdoor showers. Dining stands out as a highlight, easily rivaling Michelin-starred establishments, complemented by a spa that provides a premium, refreshing experience. It's a place that encourages you to indulge and truly spoil yourself, leaving a lasting impression of luxury and attentive service.”
