Gooderson Bushlands Game Lodge  

Set on 300 acres of Zululand bush near Hluhluwe, this safari lodge sits inside a national park just steps from Bonamanzi Private Game Reserve and close to iSimangaliso Wetland Park and Hluhluwe–Imfolozi Park. A family-friendly base for Big Five drives and birdwatching.

Twenty-one air-conditioned rooms blend quietly with the bush and open onto private patios. Rooms include refrigerators, coffee/tea makers, safes and bathrooms with bath and shower options plus complimentary toiletries and hair dryers; daily housekeeping keeps things tidy.

Experience safari drives and abundant birdlife, then cool off in the pools — the property offers both outdoor and indoor swimming options (two outdoor pools are noted). On-site extras include a gift shop/newsstand, TV in a common area, barbecue area and a tour desk to book game drives. Wake up to bird-rich Zululand mornings.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi across the property and free self-parking onsite. Laundry and dry-cleaning services, plus a safe-deposit box and access to a doctor if needed.

There’s an on-site restaurant serving buffet breakfasts daily and a bar/lounge for evening drinks. Simple, satisfying meals make it easy to refuel after a day of safari.
