Whether you’re searching for luxury glamping, an elegant wilderness wedding venue, or a peaceful nature retreat, you’ll find your perfect escape right here.
Our private estate offers a rare blend of rustic charm and luxury in the heart of the Eastern Cape’s wilderness. Stay in beautifully appointed glamping tents or relax in our spacious guesthouse surrounded by open landscapes and roaming wildlife. Zoetvlei promises the full wildlife experience — without the crowds.
Tie the knot beneath towering trees, along a natural walkway that leads to our forest chapel. From our open-air bush bar and scenic deck to the sounds of birdsong at dusk, every moment of your special day feels like part of a storybook safari expedition.
Located just 50 minutes from Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) Airport, and a short drive from Addo Elephant Park and Schotia Safaris, Zoetvlei is easily accessible yet blissfully secluded — the perfect base for a wildlife retreat in the Eastern Cape.
