GENERAL INFORMATION
- An expression of modern South African culture, a bold step in non-traditional game lodge design.
- A luxury private game reserve with an excellent viewing deck overlooking the plains.
- Rates from R3100 per person per night.
The main lodge is constructed of dark hardwood and stainless steel ,with a tall viewing platform. A long dining table stretches beneath two amazing chandeliers made from hundreds of clear Coca-Cola bottles. Behind the table is an enormous fish tank set into glistening glass blocks. The waiters and waitresses wear trousers printed with a bright fish motif. When scanning the dry bushveld stretching forever around the camp, the fish theme seems curious. It has logic, however, in that the large aquarium in the dining room concentrates on seven species of fish endemic to the Kruger area.
The cultural theme also runs through activities. After morning game-drive guests may accompany their Shangaan guide to his nearby village, where they will have the opportunity of interacting with his family and friends in a very authentic and contemporary African environment.
"Vuyatela Lodge is both extraordinary and wonderful - by far the most unusual bush camp we have ever seen. It is the actualised dream of its idealistic visionary owners, who aimed to create a camp which perfectly combines the natural and contemporary cultural components of Africa."
ROOMS
The chalets, with private deck, pool and detached sitting room, reflect local architecture. Builders used corrugated iron and mud to achieve an authentic effect without sacrificing luxury in any way.
Each of the chalets at Vuyatela is a collection of buildings joined to each other. The private lounge is separated from the bedroom by a beautiful Teak deck, which ends at the private plunge pool. The view from the Teak deck is into pristine African Savanna with its bounty of animal life.
8 luxury suites made up of bedroom, dressing-room and bathroom with bath and outdoor shower, separate lounge, private deck and plunge pool. Air-conditioning, fans, mosquito nets, a telephone and bar fridge.
DINING
The idea of Vuyatela cuisine is to take guests back to the basics of Southern African food with classic dishes but placing an emphasis on quality ingredients.
Along with the simple, but impressive presentation, and the richness of African cuisine, we intend intriguing the palates of our guests, leaving enough mystery for a return visit.
