Kariega River Lodge

The stay

River Lodge is a beautiful river-side lodge offering peace and tranquillity to the most discerning of guests. This stunning stone and thatch safari lodge comprises 10 luxurious and air-conditioned suites decorated in a blend of traditional safari and crisp modernity. The Lodge itself offers spectacular dining over-looking the river, an outdoor pool and an exclusive library. Unique activities include daily boat trips to Kenton beach, as well as excellent fishing and canoeing.

The lodge places guests beside a quiet stretch of river, where air-conditioned suites combine stone and thatch with contemporary comforts. Daily boat trips to Kenton beach, canoeing, fishing, and game drives all depart from the property, while the pool, library, and river-view dining provide calm intervals between activities. Bird watching, horse riding, and cultural tours add further variety, and the reserve remains malaria free.

Its location within Kariega Private Game Reserve allows it to form a measured component of a tailor-made safari in South Africa, pairing river-based relaxation with the reserve’s game-viewing options. Morning drives and evening boat cruises can be scheduled around lodge meals and pool time, creating a balanced rhythm that suits both first-time and returning travellers.
