&Beyond Phinda Vlei Lodge

On the edge of Phinda Private Game Reserve’s rare sand forest, overlooking a unique vlei (wetland system) you will find the intimate and romantic &Beyond Phinda Vlei Lodge. Phinda Private Game Reserve showcases one of the continent’s finest Big Five game viewing experiences and displays a magnificent tapestry of seven unique landscapes across an impressive 29 866 hectares (73 800 acres) of protected wildlife terrain. Guests at Phinda experience unforgettable interpretive game drives in open 4×4 safari vehicles, led by professionally trained &Beyond rangers and Zulu trackers, as well as a wide range of optional adventures in the bush and on the beach. The spacious main guest area also includes a library, as well as a fire pit setting.

Room Information

Each of &Beyond Phinda Vlei Lodge‘s air-conditioned suites features a beautifully designed spacious room with your own personal bar, a luxurious ensuite bathroom and a separate dressing room. The ensuite bathroom (each equipped with a bath, indoor and outdoor shower) provides a sense of old-world luxury, while the suite’s interiors showcase a mix of curated antiques and collectables inspired by the elegant, turn of the century, plantation-style homesteads of KwaZulu-Natal’s sugarcane and pineapple barons. Take advantage of the private lap pool in each suite, as well as the game-viewing deck that overlooks a grassy wetland pan system.
