Designed for maximum comfort Our luxurious lodge offers 6 luxury cabins all en-suite. Our cabins have been designed in the tradition of luxurious island resorts.

Our aim is to provide a luxurious experience as close to nature as possible. All luxury cabins are provided with bed linen, towels, toiletries, etc.

All cabins are 100% off-grid and have been designed to utilise natural air flow and have pellet burning heating systems. We at LANDRANI® are proud of our small carbon footprint.

Each cabin‟s location has been uniquely chosen for you to enjoy amazing views from the decked patios.

We have 1 breeding bull and 9 cows at LANDRANI®. Many years ago, the tasty meat of the Sable antelope was popular for biltong, venison and labourer rations therefore leading to excessive hunting.

The Sable was on the brink of extinction in 1985. Since then Sables were bred as an endangered species but as a result of over breeding the Sable market crashed late in 2018.

Currently, Sables are no longer on the endangered species list and its selling price is now determined by normal market supply and demand. At LANDRANI® we breed this magnificent animal as it complements our offering to the connoisseur guest. ​

I am strangely obsessed with sushi.

It‟s a wonderful addiction. Pre-covid times, you were likely to find me stuffing my face (in an elegant, ladylike sort of way, of course) a couple of times a week at a buffet spot down the road from where I live. But now, when I‟m spending most of my time at home, I get my sushi fix through deliveries. And my latest obsession?

Shibui Sushi!

If you haven‟t come across Shibui Sushi, then it‟s likely that you‟ve been browsing the wrong food delivery platforms. Like Monks, their sister company, this spot doesn‟t have an actual sit-down restaurant and functions purely as a delivery establishment. I ordered a massive Shibui Sushi feast via a new food delivery platform called DigiEats.

They‟re offering 25% off your first order of Shibui Sushi. In my mind, that‟s like a golden crown served on a platter of heaven.

Nestled in the heart of the KwaZulu-Natal Drakensberg, Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse is a gourmet lodge dedicated to sumptuous food and country luxury.

The Farmhouse - Life before the hotel Even in the 1970's when we spent time here, the lamps had to be lit, the wood-fired geyser next to the bath had to be stoked before you could have a warm bath and the loo was reached by going through a gate in the fence. The dam was later put in by Ralph and Marj in the 1980‟s.

Following Fred‟s example we used this as our getaway while running Granny Mouse‟s Country House in Balgowan. Once we had sold that, we moved up here permanently in 1993 and the happy memories continue to this day.

We began work on building Cleopatra in 1997, and opened our doors in September 1998.

Dinner is a sumptuous 5-course affair with no effort or expense spared to give our guests a memorable dining experience. A host talks you through every mouthful from pan to plate before you sit down to enjoy the culinary team's creations - and they don't mind telling you that Cleopatra‟s food is all about the tastes, fun and passion that go into good country cooking!

Pakamisa Private Lodge In August 1996 Isabella Stepski fell in love with the unspoilt Pakamisa Mountain in Northern KwaZulu-Natal. By September the land was bought and then the hard work began!

In the first year they established the infrastructure with 52kms of dirt roads, and secured the 2,500 hectare park with 24kms of fencing. Pakamisa Private Game Reserve, which was once a cattle farm, is now pristine Savannah and Bushveld.

In December 1997 the superior stables were completed and Isabella‟s precious Arabian stud horses, imported from Spain, were in residence.

Perched on the edge of a magnificent mountain range, the „Spanish Ranch meets African Bush‟ styled lodge took four years to construct. Local stone and materials were hauled up the perilous dirt road, and finally in January 2001 the elegant lodge, reflecting Isabella‟s warm personality, welcomed its first guests.

Isabella has stocked the reserve with indigenous animals, steering clear of predators and dangerous beasts such as buffalo, to allow guests, horses and animals to live in safety and harmony.

Pakamisa is a private, exclusive reserve open to residential guests only. Majestically perched on the high plateau of the Pakamisa Mountain, the lodge has breathtaking views of the evergreen valleys and plains of the Pongola River to the east and the rolling hills of natural bush of the Reserve in the west.

Limited to a maximum of 16 guests, the lodge offers a unique Spanish architecture, blended with the finest African ambience.

Strada Cucina is an Italian Restaurant in Umhlanga New Town Centre open for Breakfast and Lunch daily and Dinner from Tuesday to Saturday.

Whether you looking to enjoy a breakfast pan or potato rosti breakfast, a delicious wood oven roasted baby chicken, tasty pasta or one of Strada's speciality wood fired thin base pizzas with mouthwatering toppings. Come pop in and pay us a visit at our Umhlanga Ridge store.

We were hungry and quickly dived into two different focaccia baskets (R45), one with garlic and rosemary, and one with tomato and basil pesto. Both were good, and if the pizza bases were this thin and crispy, we were looking forward to trying them.

Also in the light meals selection were carpaccio, calamari or a Caprese salad. I liked the sound of the roasted tomato and basil soup served with a wholewheat cheese toastie. It sounds remarkably similar to my Sunday night staples at home.

Wraps and sandwiches are also available, as is a home-made beef burger served with cheese and garnished Italian style. It comes in at a very reasonable R75.

Welcome to St Lucia

GAME, BEACH, LAKE & RIVER WILDERNESS SAFARIS From pristine beach getaways to luxury bush adventures, Isibindi Africa has wilderness lodges in South Africa and Zimbabwe (Victoria Falls) to fufill your safari dreams…

Explore the remote and engage the present with this collection of unique lodges in Africa. Situated in areas of pristine wilderness, we celebrate the natural biodiversity and spectacular scenery of Africa.

Our lodges are considered spaces; always rooted to our environment. Your journey is our journey, whether you are discovering the wonder of turtle tracking or gently walking alongside giraffe.

The Isibindi experience is constant and authentic, this family owned business only includes lodges we own; we don't represent other properties. The family and their dedicated team have designed every detail of your game, lake, beach and river safari from the camp's birth to your welcome arrival. An Isibindi journey is experiential with meaningful engagement with the essence of a place and its people.

The founders of Isibindi Africa Lodges, Brett and Paige Gehren, both come from a strong conservation background. This has and always will be our authenticity.

Twenty five years ago we began with pioneering community conservation establishing one of South Africa's first lodges in a protected wilderness sanctuary with the local community as joint shareholders. Today we own a number of lodges scattered around Africa in world-renowned protected wilderness areas and we partner with many neighbouring communities. Our purpose is to create a human fence between our wilderness areas and neighbouring communities so that the flow of benefits to these communities motivates them to protect these resources. Neighbouring communities need to share in these flow of benefits.

Without this they have not only lost their ancestral lands but also access to its resources.

When travelling with Isibindi you will be supporting a host of community projects that rely on the lodges you will be visiting, to flourish and improve people's lives.

The charming thatched roof colonial building, which today houses the reception area, guest lounge and art gallery, was one of the first residences to be built in St.Lucia in the “County of Zululand” in the late 1930‟s. The two family/triple rooms are also part of the original building.

Doors salvaged from the wreck of the S.S.Timavo were built into the original building of the lodge in the early 1940‟s.

The Timavo was a 7500-ton passenger liner owned by the Italian Loyd Triestino Company. During World War 2, on the morning of 10 June 1940, Italy declared war on the Allies. TheTimavo was in Durban Harbor and slipped out to sea in an attempt to reach Mozambique, which was a neutral country. South Africa declared war on Italy on 11 June 1940.

Early that morning the Timavo was spotted beyond Leven Point, north of Cape Vidal.

The patrol aircraft signaled the Timavo to stop. The ship‟s Captain decided to run his ship ashore, rather than have it captured by the British. The crew abandoned their ship and walked north making for Mozambique.

This piece of landscape inspired his iconic masterpieces, arguably the most prolific landscape art by a South African artist.

They were spirited and dramatic, one-of-akind and unforgettably gripping. Jacobus Hendrik (Henk) Pierneef, or just „Pierneef‟ as the world would come to know him, called the place of „Elangeni‟ – where sunshine is at the gate. And it is at this exact gate, under the same trees, in that same light, on Pierneef‟s very foundations that our story begins…

Your hosts, Annette and Chris de Beer welcome you to Pierneef‟s Kraal guest house, situated on two hectares of fertile, historically significant land, located towards the east of South Africa‟s capital city, Pretoria. The Great Master regrettably no longer tends to the indigenous gardens he so painstakingly created, but every effort was made by us to bring to life the qualities, so ingrained in his seminal work: originality, simplicity and, of course, beauty.

The inspiration behind Craft was driven by two nostalgic individuals, Jo Pinheiro & Chris Mandos, in a quest to develop a unique restaurant with words such as hand made, old school, authentic, attention to detail, artisanal and personal as a major part of the Craft vocabulary.

"People want to be taken back to an era when one only bought ingredients and not mass produced meals, an era when craftsmen took immense pride in their vocations and things were made with love rather than measurement, with care rather than science, an era when quality and individuality was a common given".

The focus is on individuality and hospitality and doing things old school in a modern way. The look has a hint of Steampunk complimented by natural elements: antique mirrors, natural woods, natural leathers, bentwood chairs, deep buttoned leather couches, face brick, parquet flooring, copper, stainless steel and retro tiles.

Senorita Sufuentez and Gordo were living in London. An odd place to be introduced to the intricacies of Mexican food, but the place nonetheless. Forever fans of tequila, their hearts were open to the barrage of burrito bars and Mexican eateries and oh how they indulged.

As they were driving down through Africa on their way back home, Senorita and Gordo reminisced over fire-roasted cheesy quesadillas and killer guac about tequila-fuelled nights with friends. The Mayan moon shone a bit brighter, the planets aligned and (cue angel song) new paths were planned. Luckily for them, the most excellent Veektor Sufuentez and Thompadre were vibeing on the same vibes down here back in the motherland. Mad Mexicans through and through, they too had a yearning for a Mexican revolution. The four decided to band-of-brother it up.

The world in a continent, Africa is many things to many people, but ultimately it is home when we acknowledge its significance as the birthplace of civilisation.
