Bundox Villas

A South African family escape

In today’s busy world where time is the rarest of luxuries, we offer you the chance to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life with your family and retreat to a quiet place, far from the madding crowd, in the heart of one of South Africa’s most beautiful Lowveld regions. Surrounded by tall riparian trees on the lush banks of the sparkling Olifants River, Bundox Villas is designed to help you switch off, recharge and rediscover the joys of “we” time with your loved ones.

It’s the sound of water running over and between rocks that makes this a truly special destination. Calming, soothing and wonderfully relaxing, the song of the river is the perfect accompaniment to an afternoon braai (the local vernacular for a barbecue) or a siesta on the huge deck hammock alongside an inviting plunge pool. Interrupted by the occasional laughing grunts of the resident pod of hippos and the calls of a myriad birds, this is where stress evaporates like early morning mist.

A river runs past it

Fish Eagle Villa

Tucked away on a private sanctuary in the wonderful bushveld of South Africa’s Limpopo Province, a short drive from the safari town of Hoedspruit and the magnificent Kruger National Park, Bundox Villas’ Fish Eagle Villa is a sprawling three-bedroom family villa that’s ideal for families with children or groups of friends. It’s a home-from-home in the true sense of the phrase, giving you the chance to self-cater in the privacy of an exclusive, intimate and gloriously natural setting with a host of incredible activities and attractions on your doorstep.

With a modern, open-plan kitchen, living and dining room opening onto a spacious covered verandah and an expansive wooden deck that runs parallel to the river, Fish Eagle Villa is all about indoor-outdoor living and making the best of the breathtaking surroundings.

Downstairs are two large en-suite double bedrooms and a family bathroom and upstairs there’s a cosy loft bedroom with a double and single bunk bed and wonderful views over the river. All rooms are airconditioned for maximum comfort and while there isn’t a TV, there is wifi if you need to stay connected (although we do recommend a digital detox while you’re in residence).

Rock Fig Villa

Located within the Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate, features four private suites, each with an en-suite bathroom. These rooms blend seamlessly with the surrounding bush, immersing you in the sights and sounds of the wild in style and exclusivity. Despite the remote feel, you are only minutes away from the tourist town of Hoedspruit, which offers a selection of well-stocked shops and restaurants. This setup allows you the freedom to design your own schedule—rise at your leisure, dine as you please, and explore your surroundings on your own terms.

Located in the intimate Hippo Pools area on the banks of the mighty Olifants River, this villa is near the Kruger National Park, with two popular main gates within a 45-minute drive. Just 22 km from Hoedspruit, it is also within easy reach of local tourist attractions, making it an ideal base to experience the best of the Lowveld.

Indulge in the comfort and luxury of our Villas and immerse yourself in the beauty and adventure of the African bush.
