Tutwa Desert Lodge
Overview
Situated in the remote, northeastern mineral-rich region of South Africa and bordering Namibia, Tutwa Desert Lodge lies in the heart of the barren Green Kalahari as an oasis of tranquil luxury.
The cool, spacious interiors of the lodge provide a serene sanctuary in the vast and untamed environment spanning over 16000 hectares of land and boasting 24 km of Orange River frontage.
The colours of Tutwa Lodge are organic and muted, with polished floors, high ceilings, and original artworks. Natural game paths pass the lodge, and its likely antelope, giraffe, zebra, and other African game may wander past.
There are 5 Luxury Rooms, 2 Superior Rooms, and 2 Annex Suites. All our suites are spacious, air-conditioned, and dressed with fine linens, full bathrooms, personal bathrobes, and indulgent amenities. All suites have their own verandas and or balconies offering landscape and mountain views of the beautiful Green Kalahari.
Experience for yourself an oasis of calm and coolness in a vast and untamed environment, offering a distinctive private wildlife safari experience. This rewarding wilderness encounter features safari drives, nature paddles, birding, and interactive conservation experiences.
Tutwa is an ideal escape for those looking for wildlife, birding, water, and star-gazing adventure with a difference.
