Thanks to its coastal rainfall pattern, Phinda enjoys a lush green environment that contains seven distinct ecosystems - a magnificent tapestry of woodland, grassland, wetland and forest, interspersed with mountain ranges, rivercourses, marshes and pans. This fascinating variety of landscape and vegetation shelters an abundance of wildlife, including not only the Big Five but many rarer and less easily spotted species, such as the elusive cheetah or the scarce black rhino. With only a handful of lodges sharing an area of 23 000 hectares (56 800 acres) and careful trained rangers and trackers in search of prime wildlife sightings, guests are assured an exclusive game viewing experience. When you first set eyes on the ochre walls of Phinda Rock Lodge clinging to the cliff face you'll need a second look to realise you haven't arrived at a Mexican hacienda. While the rugged adobe-style building wouldn't be out of place in a desert pueblo, the lush bushveld vegetation and the wildlife dotted on the surrounding slopes leave you in no doubt that you're in the middle of Africa. Suspended over the valley below, the cliff-top suites provide an intimate, cosy space in a dramatic setting with an eagle's eye view of the reserve. Snuggled high above the surrounding panorama, your closest neighbour is likely to be an inquisitive spotted genet paying you a friendly visit on the dining deck. ROOM & SUITE TYPES: Six exceptional suites perched on the side of a rocky cliff. Each suite has a spacious bedroom with bath, shower, twin hand basins and separate w.c. All suites have their own private sitting area, personal bar, plunge pool and deck offering unrivalled views of spectacular Leopard Rock and the valley below. FOOD & WINE: Striking, fiery sunsets are witnessed from the game viewing deck suspended over Africa's bushveld, and delicious Pan African meals are served in the dining area under hand-wrought chandeliers. Adventurous and unforgettable bush banquets in bush clearings under the African night sky also delight Rock Lodge guests. FACILITIES: The guest dining and sitting areas have imposing fireplaces and open out onto a shaded deck with sweeping views of the Lebombo Mountains and bushveld below and beyond. Guests are welcome to visit the Safari Shop at Mountain Lodge. ACTIVITIES: Twice-daily game drives in open safari vehicles, nature walks and excellent birding. Riverboat cruises and canoeing along the Mzinene River. Optional Phinda Adventures, at additional cost, include breathtaking coastal flights, beach excursions including snorkelling and scuba diving, deep-sea fishing, turtle viewing, horse riding and cultural visits. |
