Kuzuko, meaning ‘Place of Glory’ in Xhosa, is the only lodge on an exclusive 35,000-acre private reserve in the Greater Addo Conservation Area in the malaria free Eastern Cape. The top choice for Eastern Cape game lodges, we specialise in offering immersive, intimate and sustainable wildlife experiences in a stunning and luxurious setting. Our guests are more than just customers to us and we pride ourselves on a warm welcome, impeccable service, and a complete experience that goes beyond the Big 5.
Conservation lies at the heart of the Kuzuko project and we are always seeking new ways to push the boundaries – from bringing elephants back to the land for the first tim in 150 years, to undertaking the largest spekboom reforestation project to date with 26 million cuttings planted over 18 months.
Kuzuko began as an intentional social enterprise with the explicit aim of creating jobs in a region of very high unemployment and limited opportunities; inclusivity is hard wired into our DNA. Staying at Kuzuko plays a vital role in creating jobs and giving back to local communities whilst also supporting conservation.
