Tutwa Desert Lodge, Augrabies

Situated in the remote, north eastern 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 provides a serene sanctuary spanning over 16000 hectares of land and boasting 24 km of Orange River frontage.

The colours of the Tutwa are organic and muted, with polished floors and high ceilings.

Luxurious suites at Tutwa Lodge are spacious, air-conditioned and dressed with fine linens, with full bathrooms, personal bathrobes and indulgent amenities. All suites have their own verandas and balconies offering landscape and mountain views of the beautiful Green Kalahari.

Natural game paths pass the lodge, and it’s likely antelope, giraffe, zebra and other African game may wander past.

Delicious seasonal African cuisine with fresh contemporary flavours is freshly prepared by our resident chef and accompanied by fine local wines.

Experience for yourself an oasis of calm and cool 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 a wildlife, birding, water and star-gazing adventure with a difference.
