Kuzuko Lodge, Addo

Kuzuko Lodge is found in South Africa’s Addo Elephant National Park, a place of true wilderness and natural beauty. It is surrounded by the open plains of the Karoo and the rugged Zuurberg mountains, in a private concession. The 5-star lodge features 24 luxury chalets, each with private patios from where guests can enjoy views of the spectacular bushveld surrounds. Each air-conditioned chalet features an en-suite bathroom, mini-bar, satellite TV, hairdryer, safe, tea-and-coffee station, and telephone. Three of the chalets are wheelchair-friendly. A full range of facilities are available at the lodge. This includes a bar and restaurant, as well as a wellness centre that offers pampering treatments to guests. These areas also provide beautiful views of the Big 5 Addo Elephant National Park. Guided game drives provide a classic way to encounter the park’s wildlife up close, while guests can also enjoy nature walks, 4x4 activities, and special children’s activities. A unique activity offered at Kuzuko is the cheetah walks, where you can get up close and personal with these incredible creatures.
