Perfect for escaping the hustle and bustle of everyday life and ideal for a pre or post safari stay.
Location
Pezulu Tree House Lodge is tucked away on a private game reserve along the famous Panorama Route of South Africa, where endless views, dramatic landscapes, and abundant wildlife set the scene. The lodge blends seamlessly into its bushveld surroundings, with treehouses built amongst towering marula and knobthorn trees.
Rooms
The lodge offers just ten unique treehouses, each crafted from natural wood and thatch, elevated above the ground to immerse you in the bush. Every room has its own private balcony, some with hammocks, others with views across the savanna, so you can sit quietly and watch giraffes and zebras wander by. Inside, you’ll find rustic charm softened by comfortable touches like en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, fans, and cosy sitting areas.
Amenities
What we love about Pezulu is the sense of being both cared for and completely at ease. The main lodge is the social heart, with a welcoming lounge, honesty bar, and dining area that opens onto a wooden deck overlooking a waterhole. The swimming pool is a favourite spot for cooling off after a day exploring, and there are plenty of quiet corners where you can read, relax, or simply listen to the bush around you. Meals are homemade and generous, often enjoyed under the stars in the boma.
Activities
Pezulu offers a wonderfully authentic bush experience. You can join guided game drives on the reserve, take bush walks to learn about tracks and plants, or simply sit on your deck and let the wildlife come to you. Beyond the lodge, the Panorama Route unfolds with its waterfalls, viewpoints, and the iconic Blyde River Canyon. For those wanting a deeper safari, the world-famous Kruger National Park is within easy reach for day trips.
Sustainability
Built around living trees and using natural materials, Pezulu has sustainability at its core. The lodge operates on a small scale, with a light footprint that respects the surrounding ecosystem. Local staff bring their knowledge and warmth to the experience, while much of the food is sourced nearby to support the community.
