Nkanyi House-luxury eco-friendly house on a wildlife estate near Kruger Park.

Conveniently situated in the heart of South Africa’s wildlife region, Nkanyi House is the perfect base for you to enjoy your dream vacation. The world-famous Kruger National Park is only a forty minute drive away and the Blyde River Canyon, just thirty minutes. Numerous other tourist and wildlife activities are nearby. Located on a secure private wildlife estate, the house has the benefit of offering privacy and nature, while being just a few minutes’ drive from shopping and dining in the town of Hoedspruit. You’ll love the abundant outdoor space including large covered deck, private pool and boma (fire pit). With room for six and plenty of space for gathering, the home provides the ideal opportunity for you to connect with nature and each other.
Imagine returning from a day of viewing some of South Africa’s incredible wildlife, hot but exhilarated. You rinse the dust off in the outdoor shower, before jumping into the private pool to finish cooling off. As the sun sets, you swap stories of the day’s adventures over drinks on the deck, while the aroma of dinner grilling over charcoal fills the air. Does this sound like the vacation you are looking for?
Now all you need to do is book your vacation at Nkanyi House.
As you enter the driveway, you may see an impala or warthog scamper away. The wildlife on the estate roams freely, but does not include predators, making it safe to walk and cycle. Open the front door and step inside the great room, with its open beams, high ceilings and large sliding glass doors that allow indoor and outdoor spaces to become one. Step out onto one of several patios. From here you can gaze out at the Drakensburg Mountains, or splash in the pool. Feel the freedom of the African bush all around you.
Do you love to cook? We have paid attention to quality and details in the kitchen so that you may be able to cook delicious meals. Our house manual includes our favourite places in town to purchase everything you need for an amazing meal, including specialty food and wine shops, which only the locals know about. The large covered patio includes a traditional South African braai (BBQ) for grilling on those warm evenings.
When was the last time you shared stories around a campfire? After dinner you can gather around the boma (fire pit) and watch the stars in the Southern sky.
The primary bedroom is secluded at one end of the house and provides great mountain views, high ceilings and a private deck. Snuggle into the king-sized bed and enjoy a great night’s sleep. Get back to the wild with an outdoor shower off the large master bathroom.
Situated at the other end of the house, the two other bedrooms each have their own private patio. One bedroom has a king-sized bed and mountain views, the other offers two single beds, which can be converted into a king-sized bed, and bush views. One more bathroom, with both indoor and outdoor showers completes this wing of the house.
