WELCOME TO
Nightjar

Experts in Safari Lodge Management | Exceptional Guest Experiences | Sustainable Tourism Partners

Nightjar is dedicated to creating unforgettable experiences for our guests. We are driven by a deep commitment to create treasured, immersive experiences for all guests whilst at the same time ensuring that the wild spaces our lodges occupy are conserved and the communities who are the custodians of the land benefit from their existence. The amalgamation of these three key focus areas is what drives us to continue to deliver exceptional experiences.

Each Nightjar Lodge is carefully selected to ensure our guests will leave inspired to become ambassadors for Africa’s natural beauty. With each stay we aim to not only create memories that will forever be cherished but also the knowledge that our guests have assisted in preserving this beauty for future generations.

WHY
Stay With Us

At Nightjar, staying with us is about more than just a luxurious escape — it’s about feeling a deep connection to the land, the people, and the stories that shape each destination.

Our teams are not just staff — they are passionate custodians of their home landscapes. Many come from the very communities that surround our lodges, and their love for the land is woven into every moment of your stay. This authenticity, care, and local pride is what elevates your experience from memorable to truly meaningful.

Every Nightjar lodge offers something utterly unique. Cast a line for tiger fish on the pristine waters of Lake Jozini. Fall asleep to the sounds of the bush in a starlit hide at Xidulu. Or reconnect mind, body, and spirit in the serene wellness spaces of Tsholo Safari Lodge.

Each stay is an invitation to feel something extraordinary — something you’ve never felt before.
