Thonga Beach Lodge was the capstone of our three week vacation in South Africa. It is a piece of luxury as far from civilization as you could ever want: nothing around for miles and miles. It's a place to really relax and get away from it all. The lodge organizes daily activities which you sign up for on the whiteboard... More

We were a group of 8 - 4 adults and 4 young children (age 3 - 8). All the staff were lovely - the children were as welcome as we were and even on one (rare) rainy morning, they brought out activities that the staff did with us. The beach is to die for - yes the snorkelling can be... More

To start with the best part: the location is unique. Miles and miles of pristine beaches make this a perfect hideaway. Getting here is already fun. You really need an SUV for the last 30 miles or so. Take the scenic route along lake Sibaya and watch the hippos. A good SATNav will be helpful. The beach is fantastic, however,... More

This is a wonderful place, its difficult to speak too highly of it and the experience. It is remote, its not a family place, the pool is small, the generator struggles to keep up, the snorkelling is challenging given the currents, the trucks old and bouncy, BUT the location is gorgeous, the beaches clean and empty, the service and friendliness...

We arrived at Thonga Beach Resort after driving up from the fantastic Phinda Game Reserve. The journey to the resort once you are off the highway is an experience in itself through the eucalyptus forests. You are greeted by a four by four at the cashew factory (didn’t see any cashews by the way) and taken along a bumpy but... More

I can only add to other comments - Thonga has to be sited on one of the most beautiful coast lines in the world. It was a joy to stay here for five nights. The resort is so well managed and the staff are all friendly; they appear to be a happy team which makes staying here all the more... More

This resort is a very special place. I have stayed in several luxury resorts around the world and I thought this one of the better ones. A few highlights why this was a special place for me -this is a pretty remote location, you can walk on beaches and not really see much sign of of another human. if you... More
