Their flagship lodge, Kapama Karula is an exclusive safari lodge with a spa in Greater Kruger National Park and the Kapama Private Game Reserve. A safari holiday in one of the top end Kruger Park safari lodges simply must start with a few days in Kapama Karula. This luxury safari accommodation has been carefully built on the banks of the perennial Klaserie River and with a name that means ‘place of peace’, Kapama Karula Lodge is definitely one of the most secluded and tranquil safari camps you will find in the Greater Kruger region.
Glass doors and huge decks create a sense of continuous light and air, the flow of the wilderness in and out of the camp, a sensory aura of delight at Kapama Karula Lodge. This prestigious camp offers 12 generous suites designed space, designer comfort and private heated pools, large decks and wonderful use of glass doors to let in the greenery outside. Two of these bush chalets have been created for families on safari because family trips to Africa promote close bonding and fun in the biggest classroom on the planet.
Enjoy the main camp facilities where you will make new friends for life – the open plan dining area and lounge, the bar and the world class award winning Karula Spa & Wellness Centre where guests can keep fit, have a massage or treat their skin to some therapy. Find time to pamper between Big 5 game drives into the reserve to find all manner of game, trees, plants and tiny creatures too.
Kapama Karula Lodge is one of 5 distinct safari lodges in the privately owned Kapama Reserve adjoining Kruger National Park. The “rooms” are really mini villas reminiscent of those in a fancy magazine and they feature king size beds, deep bathtubs and showers, ultra-deluxe sitting areas and personal lap pools.
With two safaris a day for 3 hours each guest soon forgets about just seeking the Big 5 – there is so much life and so much action in the wilderness. Some guests get to see huge breeding herds of elephants. Others notice the amazing lions, rhinos, buffalo, and leopards, plus giraffes, zebras, and many antelopes and reptiles. It simply cannot get better than this.
From the minute you drive into Kapama Private Game Reserve and see Karula, you will be hooked. Each villa has its own large deck and lap pool placed ingeniously in private seclusion. If you are an adventurous type, but you don’t like getting dirty, Karula Lodge is your kind of place. The safaris are excellent because guests see a wide diversity of wild animals from the comfort of the Kapama safari vehicle.
