As a tailor-made tour operator, we often have to get creative when designing your perfect itinerary.

For example, your travel consultant might add this property to your itinerary if:

Location is a significant factor
It offers a unique feature that will enhance your experience
This is a last-minute booking and room availability is limited
Cost is a factor and you'd rather splash out on another part of your trip
This is a newly opened or refurbished property that we have not inspected yet

When designing your custom itinerary we have much to consider not least of which is the value proposition of every product and service included in your quote. In all cases we strive to give you the best experience possible within your budget so please feel free to ask your travel consultant to share their reasons for including this property in your itinerary.

Set along the peaceful Thamakalane River, Grays Eden features five thatched-roof villas and seven cozy fisherman’s cottages, all carefully placed to give you privacy and a sense of escape.

The villas, comprising three riverfront and two garden-facing units, are designed with open living spaces that seamlessly integrate with their surroundings. They boast ceiling fans, open fireplaces, and expansive covered verandas, providing a sophisticated yet serene retreat. Complementing the villas, the cottages - four riverfront and three garden-facing - echo a similar aesthetic with their high ceilings and subtle, vibrant pops of colour, blending traditional wicker baskets and natural materials with modern comfort.

Each unit at Grays Eden offers an intimate, luxurious escape, harmonising minimalist design with the rugged beauty of the African landscape.

Guests can relax in the 12-metre pool with river views, complete with plush cushioned loungers, fresh towels, umbrellas, a shaded lounge area, additional seating for lunch, and the option to enjoy certain spa treatments by the pool upon request.
