Luxury Reimagined | April 2025

Kuganha Reimagined: A Grand Reopening Redefining Remote Luxury in the Western Cape

Kuganha, once a three-tented camp just two and a half hours drive from Cape Town, was renowned for its immersive wildlife excursions, outstanding cuisine, and the kind of remote tranquillity that nourishes the soul. Now, this iconic retreat is being meticulously redesigned and is set to reopen in April 2025.

The new camp will feature a stunning main lodge with an entertainment area, a safari boma, and an infinity pool. Along the serene edge of a Karoo dam, ten exquisitely appointed tents will be thoughtfully positioned to harmonise with the surrounding landscape.

Where Remote is the New Luxury

This newly envisioned lodge promises amenities and services never before seen in its class. Each of the ten tented units will include its own dedicated wet spa room—complete with a cold plunge pool, sauna, steam room, twin hot tubs, a private deck pool, a Jacuzzi, and a salt floatation pool.

This unparalleled level of luxury ensures guests can fully relax, reconnect with themselves, and embrace the restorative power of nature.

Kuganha’s concept of ‘remote is the new luxury’ resonates throughout. The camp will offer a carefully curated two-night stay designed to immerse guests in a journey of personal renewal amid the untamed beauty of the Karoo. Enhancing the experience further, the main lodge will surprise with a wine cellar, a whisky room, and a 24-hour pantry.

Every moment, from arrival to departure, will be thoughtfully choreographed, with meals and beverages selected to reflect the distinctive flavours of the Tankwa Karoo.

A Signature Journey of Self-Conservation

The safari experience is set to be equally extraordinary. Guests can explore the 10,000-hectare private reserve on intimate, personalised guided expeditions, encountering abundant wildlife, including the Big Five, and delighting in a vibrant birdlife.

Sunset drinks beside the Kuganha dam will add a peaceful interlude to the day’s adventures, while talented chefs showcase a menu inspired by the local environment—each bite delivering an unexpected delight.

With a host of activities rooted in the landscape, guests will rediscover nature in its purest form. Here, barefoot luxury becomes more than a promise; it is a defining feature of your stay.

The Cape Town safari experience has never been more exceptional, promising unforgettable encounters just a short journey from the city.

With its exclusive luxury tented units, Kuganha’s rebirth offers guests a once-in-a-lifetime experience—a signature journey of self-discovery and conservation in the heart of the Western Cape’s remote Karoo wilderness.
