The ultimate African adventure, Bushmans Kloof Wilderness Reserve & Wellness Retreat, South Africa

The ultimate African adventure

Days 1 - 4

Your journey begins at The Oyster Box, standing majestically on Umhlanga’s beachfront, overlooking the Indian Ocean and the iconic lighthouse. This is South Africa’s most cherished hotel and a national treasure.

Stay three nights in a Luxury Sea Facing Room, with a balcony that opens onto views of the coastline. Relax at one of the two freshwater swimming pools, one with spectacular sea views and one surrounded by sub-tropical gardens, or enjoy direct access to the Umhlanga beach. Learn the secrets of The Oyster Box’s famous curry buffet, with a private curry masterclass.

Days 4 - 6

Nestled in the foothills of the Cederberg

A magical wilderness experience among open plains, sandstone formations and ancient bush art sites dating back 10,000 years, Bushmans Kloof is the ultimate place to escape, rest and be at one with nature.

Days 6 - 10

Days 10 - 13

Dining at Xigera is a true bush experience, and a ritual that’s as essential as observing the spectacular birdlife teeming around this region of Botswana.
