What a beautiful and tranquil setting so close to Port Elizabeth. Zoetvlei really is a perfect place to unwind, relax and recharge. We were welcomed with such warmth and the accommodation is outstanding. Top that up with breathtaking views, wildlife on your doorstep and spectacular sky tapestries and you know you have found a gem of a destination!

Zoetvlei Wildlife Estate is an absolute hidden gem that perfectly balances a rustic, safari-chic aesthetic with the raw beauty of the wild. Every detail of the interior is beautifully curated making every room feel like a high-end retreat. ​The real magic, however, happens just outside your door. Waking up to see giraffes, wildebeest, zebra and warthogs roaming the landscape was an unforgettable experience. Whether we were enjoying a peaceful walk to see the wildlife up close or watching the sky turn incredible shades of crimson at sunset, the sense of tranquility was unmatched. The property also features charming glamping tents and a stunning wedding venue on-site. ​If you are looking for a stylish, serene escape that feels miles away from civilization, this is it. I cannot recommend it highly enough and already can’t wait to return!

We had the absolute pleasure of visiting this beautiful estate for a weekend conference, and the experience was outstanding. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with genuine warmth and exceptional hospitality. The facilities are immaculate, well maintained, and perfectly suited to our group’s needs. It was truly an unforgettable weekend. A heartfelt thank you to Johan and his wonderful team for going above and beyond to make us feel at home and create such a memorable experience.
