SIMBAVATI FYNBOS ON SEA

Discover a Natural Paradise in the Greater Knysna Area of South Africa's Garden Route. Escape to a breathtaking eco paradise overlooking the Indian Ocean, surrounded by a pristine fynbos reserve with sweeping views of beaches, mountains, and lagoons. Our lodge and self-contained cottage offer nine spacious rooms perched high on the dunes. Keep your eyes peeled for plains game such as zebra, bushbuck, eland, and waterbuck that roam freely on the 600-hectare estate.


Embrace the picturesque setting and enjoy a range of activities to rejuvenate both mind and soul. Take a leisurely stroll through the nature trails, relax and cloud-watch, or sit back with binoculars and enjoy the stunning vistas. Picnic or watch the sunset from Gerickes Point with your favorite sundowners. If you are feeling adventurous, explore the mountain biking trails. Adjacent to our property, discover the beautiful fossil dunes and beaches, kayak on the Swartvlei and Sedgefield lagoons, or take a trip to the neighboring protea farm. In summer, snorkeling in the rockpools can be an exciting experience. If you are in search of an adrenaline rush, this area is a hot spot for advanced paragliding.


Experience unforgettable sunrises and romantic sunsets that will make your stay with us truly memorable. Sedgefield, known for its emblem of a tortoise, captures the essence of "slow travel" – perfect for those looking to unwind and recharge.
