Kapama River Lodge
River Lodge is positioned along a bend of the seasonal Kapama River, and situated in the Kapama Game Reserve within the greater Kruger National Park area.
Accommodation comprises 64 spacious air-conditioned suites with uninterrupted views from their private patios over the Big 5 territory. These vary from spa suites which are positioned a little way from the lodge to ensure additional privacy and proximity to the spa for treatments, family rooms with triple balconies and spacious bedrooms allowing for extra beds, to Royal suites which include separate lounges and extended balconies. They all feature en suite bathrooms, and are decorated to reflect old Africa in a luxury game lodge setting. Beverage stations for early morning coffee, mini bars for sundowners on your private patio, safes, telephones, and hairdryers are standard in all rooms. African artefacts adorn the lounges of River Lodge, and a palate of red and gold reflects the colours of Africa’s earth. Glass stack doors open onto the rim-flow pool to create an al fresco experience. The long, L-shaped lounge and bar, under double-volume thatch, follow the line of the pool to create an airy but cosy atmosphere. In winter a double-sided fireplace provides additional warmth. |

Kapama offers guests 3 different dining venues: buffet meals served around a roaring fire in the rhino boma; dinners set in the dry riverbed in front of the lodge under a star-studded African night sky; in a purpose-built enclosed dining area where breakfasts and lunches are served, and which opens to the surrounding bushveld.
All cuisine at Kapama is prepared using fresh seasonal ingredients and herbs grown in the lodge gardens. Menus include warthog stew, kudu casserole, impala sausages and oxtail curry.
Vegetarians, vegans and various other dietary requirements are easily catered for.
A small, permanent waterhole lies just beyond the perimeter of River Lodge and attracts various antelope species, elephant and buffalo, therefore viewing the Big 5 – cocktail in hand – is quite usual from here.
Some of the many activities on offer are game drives and walks accompanied by skilled rangers and trackers, elephant-back safaris, elephant interaction, and hot air ballooning.
