Your Experience
Located only an hour from Port Elizabeth and 15 minutes from Grahamstown, Pumba Private Game Reserve & Spa offers an intimate African safari that is easy to reach. If you are travelling along the Garden Route, this private reserve and spa is a solid option if you want a good safari fix, or to compliment your beach experience, as you spend some time near South Africa’s east coast.
The game reserve offers two types of accommodation. Water Lodge consists of stone walled chalets that overlook the Lake Kariega, and Bush Lodge is made up of glass walled chalets offering views of the bushveld. It’s a tough choice.
Whichever option you decide, you will get the full benefit of facilities that will keep you more than satisfied. Thatched roof restaurants await, with well stocked bars, game viewing decks, a bird hide and free Wi-Fi to share the top memories of your stay on social media. Here it is all about having options, and being able to do what you like, when you like.
There is no need to rush. The lure of thrilling game drives should be enough to get you off your sun lounger. What’s more, it that the area is known for its white lions, and even reported sightings of leopards. The Soul Spa and Gym offers great amenities, as well as additional activities such as bass fishing, archery, and bush walks on foot with an experienced tracker guide. After a busy day out and about, conclude your day with a glass of local South African wine while you tune in to the distant sounds of the nocturnal bush.
Pumba Private Game Reserve is an ideal stopover if you wish to have a safari experience while exploring the Garden Route....
