Iketla Lodge offers luxury accommodation
on a private nature reserve, with excellent birding and nature walks.
Iketla Lodge nestles in the middle of a 540 hectare private nature conservancy on the Panorama Route, approximately 30 minutes’ drive from the famous |
|
Blyde River Canyon. The lodge is surrounded by undulating mountains,
valleys and cliffs. Unspoilt African bush and indigenous forests are a
haven for more than 200 different bird species and numerous migratory
species of wildlife.
Iketla Lodge Accommodation
A maximum of 16 guests per night can enjoy luxury and elegance in a relaxed
and convivial environment.
Our personal service and attention to detail will ensure an unforgettable
experience. The very nature of Iketla Lodge and the tranquil environment
make it unsuitable for young children. We regret to advise that children
under 12 cannot be accommodated at Iketla unless by prior arrangement.
Five of our eight chalets were built on the edge of
a small rise and each offers a secluded look-out point into the valley
– the ideal place to spend a romantic hour or two!
Chalets have been furnished with ultimate comfort in mind: a choice of
queen-sized bed or two twin beds, tea and coffee making facilities and
a comfortable reading area. Carefully chosen African décor and
accessories create a feeling of serenity and elegance.
Unique en-suite bathrooms provide a stone-built shower, hand-made ceramic
basin set in a hardwood slab and a separate toilet.
All units also feature an open air outdoor shower – very private
and exotic!
Our “Romance Chalet” offers just that little more for a special
occasion – whether you are on honeymoon or celebrating an anniversary,
birthday or if you are just very romantic.
Even more spacious than the other chalets, the “Romance Chalet”
offers a bath with exquisite view into the bush and a larger open air
shower.
Very secluded and idyllic!
Relax… unwind…
Whether lounging by the pool, enjoying the view from your patio or sitting
quietly on a rock looking into the valley, Iketla is the perfect spot
to relax and unwind.

to minimize the impact of development on the natural environment. The
result is a comfortable retreat set amidst nature in its purest form.
The surroundings and infrastructure add to the overall feel of relaxation
