Phuti Camp

Phuti Camp is the perfect choice for intrepid safari-goers seeking comfortable accommodation in wild surroundings. Located in a private concession of 12 000 ha that spills over into the famed Balule Nature Reserve, makes Phuti the perfect destination for a rustic Big 5 safari experience. In addition, guests can enjoy the close proximity to the revered Kruger National Park which sits adjacent to Phuti’s traverse.

When you choose to stay at Phuti Camp, you’ll immerse yourself in the beating heart of nature. Right on the doorstep of camp is a large waterhole frequented by a multitude of species. Expect daily visits from wildlife—everyday is a surprise. The main area, swimming pool, and boma are neatly dotted across manicured lawns punctuated by trees.

Surrounding the swimming pool is a bricked deck area adorned with comfortable sun loungers. This is the perfect place to spend your downtime during the hot summer months, and the ideal place to birdwatch. And of course—like most safari lodges in the area—Phuti Camp has a boma area.

The rustic outdoor boma is where you’ll spend evening time huddled around a crackling campfire, and reminisce about the day’s sightings. Other social areas include the lounge and dining room, bar area, and relaxation area under cover. A discreet footpath leads directly down to the swimming pool from the main terrace area and rooms.

There are 5 charming thatched chalets each built on raised wooden platforms, offering ample balcony space to take in the sublime surroundings. Chalets have a distinct bushveld feel and blend in perfectly with their environment. Each of the chalets can be configured to suit your accommodation needs.

This rustic camp offers abundant opportunities for game viewing, and makes for a wonderful family safari destination. Safari-goers, along with their families, can enjoy twice daily game drives that take place in the Balule Nature Reserve.
