You may sleep in tents at this rustic retreat but there’s certainly no roughing it. Appropriately, the name Thanda means ‘love’ and the sheer romance of this northern Zululand game reserve escape is intoxicating. Check into the lodge’s Luxury Honeymoon Tent with its spacious surrounds, outdoor shower and Jacuzzi deck overlooking the pristine reserve - the lodge is renowned for the discreet attention offered to honeymooners and alfresco dinners in candlelit foam baths for two are part of the special offerings for starry eyed newlyweds. If tying the knot at Thanda is on your agenda, think about booking the Royal Villa for the days leading up to the wedding so you can spend time with family and friends before setting off on your own journey together.
Rates: R9750 per person sharing/Honeymoon package including three all-inclusive nights
