KwaZulu-Natal

SSet on the majestic Elephant Coast in KwaZulu-Natal, ANEW Hotel Hluhluwe & Safaris has cemented its name as one of the leading hotels in the area. The three-star-establishment is known for its affordable accommodation that celebrates Africa and its wildlife. 

Nestled between the Hluhluwe Game Reserve and the Greater St. Lucia Wetland Park, a world heritage site, the hotel opened in 2017. The brains behind the establishment are two KwaZulu-Natal businessmen, Clinton Armour and Patrick Eliot. Their other offering is Ingeli Forest & Spa in KwaZulu-Natal. Armour wanted to create a brand that is personal and unique for travellers, something that they have managed to attain over the years.
