Kariega Homestead Lodge is a private five bedroom lodge offering family group or friends the luxury of a private home. Located on a big 5 malaria free private reserve this is quite a nice choice especially for those with younger children.

The Homestead is a private lodge which offers its' guests all the comfort, convenience and luxury of their own home.

As recently as 20 years ago, the existing Kariega Game Reserve was owned by 20 different farmers! With this reality at the forefront of our minds, it would be accurate to say that the gradual growth and development of the reserve resulting in the successful re-introduction of game and rehabilitation of farm lands to their original vegetation, is one of the most accomplished conservation projects in the Eastern Cape to date.
The Kariega Game Reserve ecology hosts a variety of wildlife, most of which has persisted in the Eastern Cape over the centuries. Wild cat, lynx, hyena, jackal, genet, bushpig, warthog, baboon, monkey, honey badger and porcupine are some of our residents, to mention just a few. Kariega is bordered in the east and west by two magnificent rivers, a delight for birdwatchers who will have the chance to view an abundance of birdlife including the African Fish Eagle, and various species of Kingfisher.
