Experience the ultimate in outdoor existence!

Esikhotheni Private Game Reserve on Jozini Lake, is by no means primitive and untamed as the name would suggest. Comfortable and elegant without being fussy, Esikhotheni Lodge celebrates tranquil charm, surrounded by untouched African bush, on a stunning hilltop location overlooking the shimmering Jozini Lake.
Superior accommodation at Esikhotheni Lodge is offered in 7 en-suite chalets, positioned for optimum privacy each with private patios to savour the magnificent views over Jozini Lake. The bathrooms are very spacious with large showers and raised oval baths with clear views of the surrounding African Bush. The Honeymoon Suite is designed with the more romantic guest in mind, with a private Jacuzzi set on an extended deck in the bush.

The chalets all have air-conditioning, mini bar with tea & coffee making facilities; luxurious bath essences, lotions etc for your pleasure & comfort, hairdryers and electronic mini-safe for safe keeping of personal items, money etc.

Cheerful and unobtrusive staff will welcome you and add to your memories of your stay at Esikhotheni Lodge. For them, going the extra mile is not an effort, but a joyful habit. Owners, Dave and Elin Hagemann ensure that all guests are carefully attended to, giving that personal touch.

Dining at Esikhotheni Lodge is an indulgence. Long lazy breakfasts are served outside on the deck under the giant Marula tree, where guests can enjoy the view of the Lebombo Mountains stretching along the length of the Jozini Lake. Delectably elegant dinners - all carefully prepared and beautifully presented by the resident chef, served either in the traditional boma around the blazing fire, or in the lodge.

Esikhotheni Private Game Reserve offers guests an array of activities to choose from - traditional morning and evening game drives, bush walks, Rhino tracking on foot, cruises on Jozini Lake, Tigerfishing, and for the more adventurous we have a 4x4 track where you can put your vehicle through its paces.

... but the most popular of all ... to just relax and indulge in this peaceful, pristine piece of paradise!
