Inspired by the Zulu word for “the view of the eye”, Sungulwane Private Game Lodge overlooks the unspoiled wilderness of Zuka Private Game Reserve, providing an exclusive Big Five safari experience.
Each of the eight suites is in complete harmony with nature, enveloped in the Red Ivory forest, with a private deck and outdoor shower allowing for endless stargazing or daydreaming over the uninterrupted views of the valley. With contemporary African design and architecture, this lodge brings together organic textures and shapes. One group or family are welcome to book the entire lodge to transforme Sungulwane into a home away from home.
Sungulwane is a family-run business owned by John and Bruce Morrison, with the lodge being managed by their sons Rob, Mark and Nick. All of the family are committed to the social, economic and environmental welfare of the area and its people. Sungulwane has been built by local artisans and all of the lodge’s employees reside in surrounding Zululand.
Zuku Private Game Reserve boasts lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo, cheetah and leopard, as well as prolific plains game from impala, zebra and wildebeest to warthog, nyala, bushbuck and giraffe. This Big Five conservancy also borders the iSimangaliso Wetland Park, a world heritage site.
Join a knowledgeable guide on a twice daily game drive to experience the natural beauty of Africa and see wildlife in their natural surroundings. Book a private safari and specialist guide to create a bespoke experience for you; whether you want to focus on birds, photography, family safaris or to take things a little slow, the choice is yours.
Take a break from game drives and journey through the savanna on a bush walk; learn about tracks, flowers, insects and the smaller creatures you may miss when in a vehicle. The thrill of not knowing what is around the next bend and immersing yourself in nature is incredible.
Sungulwane is committed to sustainable practices, ensuring the preservation of the unique ecosystems and wildlife within the Mun-Ya-Wana Conservancy. The lodge’s contemporary African design and architecture, inspired by traditional African culture, artfully blends with the natural surroundings and was built by local artisans.
