Hidden in a quiet fold of indigenous bushveld, Thulamela is a private retreat designed exclusively for two. Here, six hand-built timber cottages offer an intimate escape, inviting you to slow your pace, inhale the scent of wild earth, and rediscover the joy of being present, with yourself, your partner, and the natural world.
As a proudly owner-run establishment, we take joy in the finer details that turn a visit into a memory. And when the lights go out, our generator ensures your comfort remains uninterrupted.
Each cottage opens onto a secluded wooden deck, where a steaming spa bath awaits beneath the leafy canopy and a sky scattered with stars. It's a place where the rush of daily life falls silent, replaced by the soothing sounds of the surrounding bush.
Inside, the atmosphere is one of warmth, comfort, and quiet romance. Expect luxuriously soft linen, thick Turkish towels, fresh flowers thoughtfully arranged, and little surprises like handmade fudge from our family kitchen and locally grown macadamia nuts. A compact kitchenette is equipped with the essentials, while a mini cash bar, restocked daily, invites you to raise a glass to the moment. Just outside, your own private braai area sets the scene for a peaceful evening under the African sky.
Mornings begin gently with the songs of birds and a wholesome breakfast delivered directly to your door. Should you follow a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle, simply let us know, we’re happy to accommodate you with care.
Whether you're marking a honeymoon, anniversary, proposal, or simply carving out time for a romantic getaway, Thulamela surrounds you with quiet luxury and heartfelt hospitality. Enhance your stay with one of our specially selected extras, from a relaxing couples massage on your deck to an indulgent chocolate fondue or a beautifully arranged platter of snacks and braai treats, all prepared with you in mind.
Ideally situated for exploring the breathtaking Panorama Route and the legendary Kruger National Park, Thulamela is not just a place to stay, it’s a space to feel.
Come and fall in love, with the silence, the wild, and each other, at Thulamela.

We had the best time staying at Penny's. She is a wonderful host with a strong attention for detail to make your stay extra special. The cabins are cozy with a personal touch and the kitchen is well equipped with a fully stocked fridge that runs on an honesty system. We very much enjoyed having breakfast on the deck, which was absolutely excellent and our vegan request was no problem at all. The bath in the evening is the perfect end to a day of exploration.
