An amazing setting. Wonderful tents that have all the required facilities. The bathroom in the tent is well equipped, spacious, and has high-quality towels. From the tents you can see the animals as they come and feed next to the main house.

Gondwana Game Reserve

Kleinberg (Near Hartenbos)

Gondwana Game Reserve, where Big Five game roams free through the Cape fynbos, is located 25 km from Mosselbay.

What a stay! Gondwana goes straight up to the top of best places we have ever stayed in. Overall the park is amazing and greatly managed, the game drives were spectacular and the staff was unbelievably supportive and helpful throughout our stay. We stayed over for 2 nights with a small baby (1.5y old) and we were accommodated on a beautiful and huge villa (would fit 8 people), the staff was able to accommodate for us going on a couple of game drives with the baby - which she absolutely loved - and you are able to enjoy the pool / restaurant to relax in between. Couldn't have been a better experience, honestly. If you are driving from Cape Town like we did it can seems a bit of a long drive, but it is definitely worth it - one of the highlights of our trip to South Africa

    We were three couples, glamping in three safari tents. It was our first time at this Game Lodge and it was lovely. We have been to other lodges but this one was by far the best.

    What a hidden gem of a place! We loved the hospitality of the owners who made us feel very welcome at their lodge. We stayed for 3 nights and went on multiple game drives during our stay. It was amazing that it was the owner himself who drove us around the reserve, so he was able to tell us in detail about the origins of the reserve, how they manage it and show us the wildlife conservation efforts they undertake. The lodge has a very personal and small scale feel which is extremely nice. Absolutely wonderful.

    The tents are very well equipped, nicely decorated and clean and you can make a nice coffee on the gas in the kitchen area. We enjoyed dinner at the lodge and the game drive in the morning with a coffee stop at a view point.

    What an amazing place to stay! You can see the animals from the lodge, if you are lucky you might see a hippo... we did the safari and had lunch/breakfast over there. Both were great!! We felt like a part of the family here and were sad to leave... We recommend this of you want to be away from the busy world and if you adore nature in a calm, superfriendly atmosphere .
