Elandela Private Game Lodge and Private Reserve is the tangible culmination of many decades of passionate and selfless dedication to ensuring that all those who tread these lands have a true taste of its ancient, but living, world of trees and plants and wild animals. The present guardians of this special place are Rocco and Yvonne Gioia. The fact that Rocco converses freely in Spanish makes it easier for our Spanish and South American guests to fully understand and immerse themselves in the wonders of our South African Bushveld. Under the guidance of Yvonne you will find a dedicated, yet friendly, compliment of staff members, labouring with the sole intention of making your stay here at Elandela a most pleasurable one.

Here at Elandela we pride ourselves on implementing the meaning of the word “ELANDELA” - track and follow the wild animals in their own bushveldt habitat.
