About Your Accommodation
Retreat into the wilderness at Nyala Safari Lodge. At Nyala Safari Lodge, we understand that a journey into Africa is a journey into the wild, and this philosophy shapes every part of your stay.
From the moment you arrive, the focus is on creating a safari experience that feels authentic, immersive, and deeply memorable. Thoughtfully guided game drives, unhurried days, and evenings beneath vast skies form an experience that lingers long after the dust has settled and you’ve landed back home.
Our intimate lodge offers everything one hopes for from a safari escape: luxurious accommodation, serene surroundings to truly unwind, generous hospitality, and remarkable wildlife encounters. Each element is carefully considered, allowing guests to settle into the rhythm of the bush and experience safari in a way that feels deeply personal and luxuriously comfortable.

Accommodation Information
Each chalet at Nyala is thoughtfully designed as a calm and restorative space. Beautifully fitted with Egyptian cotton linen and tie-back mosquito nets, the rooms invite a deep sense of rest after days spent exploring the bush. Earthy tones and pale wood finishes create a sense of harmony, while designer en-suite bathrooms feature both indoor and outdoor showers for bathing beneath open skies.
Four of the five chalets also include deep bathtubs, adding an extra layer of indulgence to the safari experience. From private patios, guests can enjoy views over the bushveld, garden, or river, surrounded by the serenity of nature.
Chalet 1: This intimate chalet faces the riverbed and has a queen-size bed. This is a garden chalet with a freestanding bath and is ideal for couples or honeymooners.
Chalet 2: This is a large luxury chalet that sleeps two people on a king-size bed, with ample room for a child’s bed if necessary. It is situated in the main garden of the lodge under the canopy of a magnificent leopard tree, with a huge cycad plant next to its veranda. Very spacious and relaxing.
Chalet 3: Set back amongst the aloe and tall Fever Trees, this chalet is slightly raised and overlooks the bushveld and beautiful green garden. It sleeps two people in Twin beds (easily converts to a king size). There is ample room for an extra bed. A large luxury chalet that suits all guests and is especially popular for families with 3 children/groups of 3 friends travelling together due to its spaciousness.
Chalet 4: This chalet is set back a little from the lodge pool area and boasts peaceful open bush views with regular bush buck wandering by. It sleeps two people in a King-size bed (easily converted into twin beds). A short 30m stroll to the pool and dining area makes this a quiet yet popular chalet.
Chalet 5: Nestled beside the rim-flow pool, Chalet 5 features a unique layout with two showers, including a quirky outdoor shower shared with a beautiful Appelblaar tree, offering a refreshing indoor/outdoor experience year-round. As the tree forms part of the bathroom design, the chalet does not include a bath. Overlooking the bushveld, yet peaceful and relaxing, the chalet is often visited by our resident bushbuck and is conveniently close to the dining area. It accommodates two guests in twin beds convertible to a king-size, with space for an additional bed.
