Komati Gorge Lodge is a 4 star graded hotel offering Carolina accommodation for tourists and visitors of Grass & Wetlands.
About Komati Gorge Lodge
On the banks of the Komati River, at the base of a miniature Grand Canyon, this small village of thatched dwellings provides affordable luxury in a most dramatic setting. Only 2˝ hours from Gauteng, situated near the village of Dullstroom, Komati Gorge Lodge is a convenient stop over point from either Gauteng or KwaZulu Natal en-route to the Kruger National Park. However, to really appreciate the beauty of the surroundings and to experience Africa at its best, a 2 night stay at Komati Gorge Lodge is recommended.
Hotel Type ACCOMMODATION
Awarded a four star grading by the Tourism Grading Council of South Africa and a Superior Accommodation rating by AA Travel, this untouched expanse of 1200ha with its thorn bushveld and highveld grassland offers an unparalleled experience to nature lovers. The biodiversity creates a perfect environment for the prolific birdlife and a wide range of indigenous trees, shrubs and wild flowers. Game on the farm includes zebra, blue wildebeest, eland, kudu, blesbok, warthog, duiker and many more.
Please see the individual cottage or suite descriptions and photographs below, to assist you with your choice.

Ross and Sandy are absolutely amazing, everything was super-perfect. From the minute we arrived at the Lodge till the minute we left they ensured our stay in this paradise are comfortable and enjoyable. Nature, peace and tranquality everywhere around. The quality (and quantity!) of the restaurant food are the best, even the choice of background music were perfect. We are definitely returning and will reccomend Komati Lodge to anyone.

Komati Gorge lodge is an amazing place. The outdoors and the tranquil beauty left us feeling so relaxed. Sandy and Ross took such good care of us, they ensured we had everything we needed for our stay. This felt like home away from home. Will definitely be going back
