The Sunset Restaurant

Built from the reserve's own stone.

Set on a majestic hillside with matchless views of our African sunset, the Sunset Restaurant's walls are stone culled directly from Inkwenkwezi's native geology, under a traditional thatched roof.

Situated amid the accommodation tents, it is an inviting restaurant for our resident guests, who are invited to enjoy tasty meals freshly prepared on site during their stay. There is a bar, and free wifi if you need to catch up with anyone.

Available for small private functions of a maximum of 30 people, subject to availability.
