Thobeka Lodge & Safaris 

Set amongst big shady trees in a peaceful rural setting in Kosi Bay, our rustic and authentic self-catering Thobeka Lodge epitomises simplicity where there are no frills but genuine African bush living in harmony with nature. 

The bar is, as it should be, packed with cold beers, and sofas or a hammock or two so you can kick back and enjoy. Beside the bar is our swimming pool should you wish to take a dip and cool off, not far from yet another cold beer. Our braai/barbecue area is also located next to the pool and about three steps from the bar so you can have a barbecue, take a dip in the pool, a swig of your beer and embrace the freedom that Thobeka offers you. 

Local amenities are in close proximity to our child-friendly African bush lodge where you can purchase food products and African souvenirs. A petrol station, a pharmacy and an ATM are also in the vicinity. 

Our Accommodation 

Providing self-catering accommodation in true African style, we offer twin rooms, double rooms, dormitories and family rooms. All guest rooms are built according to the Zulu tradition and connected by wooden walkways which allow you the privacy and space to kick back and enjoy uninterrupted relaxation time. Each room offers comfortable beds, mosquito nets and fans for those warm lazy afternoons and balmy African evenings. On the other hand, the wooden walkways lead to a fully fitted and well-stocked kitchen for self-catering, to hot showers and toilets, as well as to our swimming pool. 

We also offer camping sites for tents, with electrical points, communal bathrooms, a kitchenette and barbecue facilities. Overnight facilities are available for roof tent campers, bush trailers and camper vans. 

Evenings at Thobeka are reliant upon what you wish to experience. You could either sit or dance around the fire, beat your African drum, tell stories, have a kitchen party or relax and gaze at the twinkling African night sky and listen to the sound of nature.
