Property Description
Bonamanzi Game Reserve, a Big 4 Reserve, is a Natural Heritage Site bordered by the spectacular Lake St. Lucia Isimangaliso Wetlands - a World Heritage Site - and the magnificent Hluhluwe River.
This privately owned game reserve and safari lodge is widely recognised as one of the best birding destinations in Southern Africa. Lake St Lucia and the Hluhluwe River give Bonamanzi its Zulu name, meaning "Look, Water!". Its almost 4000 ha teams with game, and one of Bonamanzi's special features is that it provides a safe and interactive bush experience in which you can do walks or drive, with or without the company of a trained field guide. To see the Big Five animals, the famous Hluhluwe Imfolozi Game Reserve is a short 20 minute drive away or join us on one of our Game Drives.
A wonderful climate prevails all year long with splendid summers and warm winter days. Set your own pace as you absorb the peaceful sounds and spectacles of three adjoining eco-systems: coastal grassland, tropical forest, and woodland. Comfortable Accommodation and every facility is available to ensure that your stay is a pleasant one, be it a peaceful getaway for couples or families, or Conference and Events or Weddings parties. And there are plenty of Activities from Boat Cruises, Bird Safari and Game Drives to relaxing at the pool at Lalapanzi Camp to ensure that your every whim is catered for.
At Lalapanzi it's quite common to find a herd of impala sleeping outside your cottages and skittish warthog families amble around the camps all day long.
Lalapanzi consisting of 4 star quality chalets with DSTV, Wifi, refrigeratprs, air-conditioning & en-suite bathroom, as well as our 3 star combos, complete with air-conditioned, which are ideal for families.
The camp is situated around the picturesque Lalapanzi watering hole, with some of the units cradled by the endangered sand forest, all within easy walking distance from the Lalapanzi restaurant and swimming pool facilities.
A communal lounge and bar area raised on stilts overlooking a picturesque dam provides guests with excellent bird viewing opportunities.
View the nimble Jacana bird close-up as it walks around the lily pads in the dam, or cool during the hot summers days in the Lalapanzi swimming pool. There is also a children's play ground which keeps the youngsters busy as this 'family friendly' camp.
