Set within the 9,000 hectare Karongwe Private Game Reserve, bordered by the majestic Drakensberg escarpment but only 45 minutes’ drive from Kruger National Park, Kuname occupies a lush riverine corner. Diverse landscapes and excellent Big Five game-viewing characterise its surroundings.
The lodge features 5 air-conditioned chalets, including 4 luxury suites and 1 premier suite for honeymooners. Each offers spectacular views of the Kuvenjane River and Drakensberg mountains, with indoor/outdoor showers, while the premier suite’s private outdoor bathtub adds to the feeling of romance.
A newer addition, the exclusive-use Kuname Manor House sits on the banks of the Kuvenyami River, surrounded by Jackalberry trees. Perfect for families or friends seeking complete privacy, the villa features 2 ensuite bedrooms, a loft, fully equipped kitchen, living area and plunge pool. The private deck ensures you’re in prime position to observe the wildlife at the river and nearby watering hole.
At the main lodge, expansive lounges and dining areas flow onto a riverside viewing deck and rock pool overlooking the riverbed. In-between game drives, indulge in treatments at Thera Naka Spa, while evening calls for bush dinners and boma feasts.
