Bulungula is 100% owned and managed by the local Xhosa community, offering a rare opportunity to experience authentic rural life on the Wild Coast of South Africa. Set on a hillside overlooking a beach and a river mouth, the lodge consists of 10 traditional rondavels (round huts) that are cosy and colourful, with solar-powered lights and paraffin lamps. There’s no electricity or running water at Bulungula, but plenty of charm and character. Relax in a hammock, enjoy delicious home-cooked meals, join in various activities led by local guides, or simply soak up the beauty and tranquillity of this remote paradise.
