A stay at eKhaya Bush Villa is just the thing for couples looking at having an amazing and indulgent getaway in the heart of the Greater Kruger.

There’s also a host of wonderful things to do to celebrate “we” time in style. Take a couple’s spa treatment for example.

We can arrange this in the privacy of your luxurious room or outside in our gorgeous sala, overlooking the wonderful wilderness of the estate which is packed with wildlife and a proliferation of birds and can be explored either by car, on foot, mountain bike or horseback! Alternatively, we can arrange treatments at one of our local day spas.

Indulge in a different way with a Big Five game drive followed by a gourmet dinner under the stars, or a craft gin and wine tasting at our local tasting rooms complemented by some fabulous food.

eKhaya itself offers luxurious accommodation in six double, airconditioned en-suite rooms, all with fabulous en-suite facilities. With a beautiful plunge pool and landscaped gardens, the villa also has its own traditional boma where you can enjoy drinks around a blazing log fire (we call it the “bush TV” locally because it’s so mesmerising!).

If you don’t feel like driving all the way from Johannesburg then how about flying into Hoedspruit’s Eastgate Airport where we will arrange a transfer for you. It’s just 13km from Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate and has daily direct flights from and to OR Tambo International Airport and also from Cape Town.

During your stay with us, you could also enjoy a full-day chauffeur driven guided tour of the Kruger National Park, complete with packed breakfast and stopping for lunch at one of the camp restaurants. Or how about a chauffeur-driven guided tour of the fabulous Panorama Route which is on our doorstep.

If adventure and adrenalin are your thing, then a helicopter flight over the Blyde River Canyon is an absolute must. You can even stop atop the Drakensberg Escarpment for a champagne picnic if you like – just chat to us about what you’d like to do when you make your booking and we’ll put together the perfect package for you.
