Scenic views
This incredible property has the environment in mind and is the perfect chance for glampers to truly integrate themselves with a traditional South African village. It can be found on the breathtaking Wild Coast and has access to incredible beaches where guests can expect to see whales, dolphins, and a wide range of unique wildlife. In addition, there are magical forests and lagoons waiting to be discovered by guests in the surroundings. The hosts are so proud of their clear skies and the chance to see shooting stars that they offer guests a free night's stay for every night they don't see any. Clearly, this secluded setting is the ideal place to disconnect and relax.

The local village of Nqileni owns the lodge and is a key part of daily life. Glampers will find the main area of the property merged within the village which gives them the opportunity to get to know the locals.

This is the perfect destination for a peaceful getaway to experience the rural side of South Africa. Guests can enjoy wandering around the village and have the option of taking a guide with them. The locals love to interact with guests and can help them with face painting, brick-making, maize stamping, traditional food preparation, beer brewing, and firewood collecting. In addition, local fishermen are happy to show glampers how to catch fish with their traditional methods and even how to make a fishing rod from wood and wire. Glampers will also adore the impressive beaches just a short distance away that are wonderful for swimming and sunbathing.

Guests that are at the property mid-month are invited to attend the amazing two-day uHube party where the whole village gathers to dance and celebrate. The community also offers canoe trips up the beautiful Xhora River, where kamikaze fish may jump into guests' boat!
