Catch up on lost time by taking your loved ones to the luxurious Phinda Getty House, an exclusive, sole-use home that's perfect for families and small parties.

Exclusively only for eight guests, the four spacious and luxurious suites at the exquisite Phinda Getty House feature unique sliding panel windows with sweeping views of the surrounding African bushveld. The beautiful combination of yellow sandstone with timber, thatch and cement makes the airy free-flowing spaces and hues of grey, slate and celadon breathtakingly stylish and sophisticated, yet refreshingly simple. An interactive kitchen allows for intimate, informal dining, and a rim-flow infinity pool provides for respite from the heat of the day. The house has spacious sitting and dining rooms, with expansive decks. You can enjoy pan-African cuisine in the dramatic boma (an outdoor dining area) illuminated by dozens of candles and lanterns, or in a spectacular clearing in the bush under a star-studded sky.

Phinda Getty House lies within the western regions of the over twenty thousand hectares of Phinda Private Game Reserve, in the Maputaland region of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Phinda neighbours the Greater St Lucia Wetland Park – a World Heritage Site to the east and is only 30km due west of the white-fringed beaches of the Indian Ocean. It's six hours from Johannesburg three hours from Durban by road. At no extra cost, you have a host of safari activities to choose from, such as game-drives, interpretive bush walks, canoeing on the Mzinene River, White Rhino tracking, or a sunrise or sunset Mzinene Riverboat Cruise.
