  • Description
  • Facilities
Pumba Private Game Reserve is situated in the Malari Free Eastern Cape and is a mere hour’s drive from Port Elizabeth and 15 minutes from Grahamstown, while the Gary Player design Golf Course at Alicedale is only 30 km away. Pumba Private Game Reserve offers a luxurious Safari Lodge comprising of eight stone-walled, thatched waterfront cottages leading off meandering timber footpaths.

Each cottage offers a private setting with a unique view of the lake. The cottages open up onto private timber decks with outside showers and plunge pools. Let your ranger take you on a game drive in a custom-made vehicle at sunrise or sunset on summer evenings to share in the shear beauty of Africa, and although you cannot take this piece of heaven with you, you will always treasure the memories.

Uniquely positioned the Safari Lodge is set amongst dense bushveld, overlooking Lake Kariega, where the animals come to drink. The main lodge offers magnificent views of the plains and Lake Kariega from its terraced timber deck complete with bushveld pool for lazy summer days. The bush bar and floating pier is the perfect setting to enjoy a sundowner before dinner a cordon bleu delight complemented by an extensive collection of excellent wines.

Covering about 6000 hectares of land, Pumba Private Game Reserve is home to Africa’s Big 5 and offers visitors the chance to experience the wonders of Africa, from the graceful giraffe to seldom seen leopard, 22 species of antelope and other small game. The 200 plush species of bird will delight bird lovers.

Setting is absolutely breathtaking! I was surprised at how quickly we saw the animals (in particular the big 5) - as soon as we arrived there were 4 hippos in the lake, a family of warthogs by our lodge and numerous antelope running along the hills all within full view of the lodges! The food, although tasty and usually very good, wasn't quite up to '5 star' quality. The staff were extremely polite and willing to please, and on our last night our ranger had dinner with us (quite a nice touch I thought). Even after we had checked out of the lodge, we were still able to arrange a transfer from Grahamstown back to Port Elizabeth through the lodge! Hows that for ongoing service!! My husband and I are returning to South Africa later in the year and we will be booking back at Pumba Lodge and are already looking forward to it. I was also very pleased at the ease with which I was able to book and pay for this accommodation through this website!
