Nestled in the heart of the Klein Karoo, Mont Eco Private Game Reserve offers an exclusive 5-star safari experience where luxury meets wilderness. Just 2 hours and 45 minutes from Cape Town International Airport, this malaria-free reserve spans 6,750 hectares, home to the Big Five—Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Rhino, and Buffalo—as well as over 35 other free-roaming species.

A Lodge Designed for Luxury & Tranquillity

Mont Eco’s Kingsley Lodge is a masterpiece of African elegance, blending colonial charm with contemporary design. Built along a seasonal riverbed, the seven private suites provide a secluded retreat with breathtaking mountain views. Each 80-square-meter suite features an extra-length king-size bed with 100% cotton percale linen, hypoallergenic bedding, and air conditioning for ultimate comfort.

The en-suite bathrooms are a highlight, featuring a Khoi San bath beneath a woven dome, walk-in rain showers, and premium amenities. Guests can unwind in a private lounge with a fireplace, enjoy drinks from the minibar, or step onto their spacious deck overlooking the riverbed. High-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the lodge, ensuring you stay connected in this remote paradise.

A World-Class Dining Experience

Dining at Mont Eco is a culinary journey celebrating the flavors of the Karoo. The main lodge features an elegant indoor dining area, where gourmet meals are crafted from fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Guests can enjoy breakfasts before game drives, bush lunches, or dinners under the stars at the traditional African boma. The wine cellar boasts an impressive selection of South African and international wines, perfect for pairing with each meal.

Unforgettable Safari Adventures

Mont Eco offers an authentic and intimate safari experience. Twice-daily game drives in 8-seater Land Cruisers bring guests up close to the reserve’s incredible wildlife. Expertly trained guides share insights into the unique Karoo ecosystem, enhancing each encounter with the Big Five.

For a more immersive experience, guided bush walks allow guests to explore the landscape on foot, discovering the smaller wonders of the region. Sundowners in the bush are a must, offering a magical way to end the day before returning to the lodge for an elegant dinner.

Mont Eco goes beyond traditional safaris, offering stargazing in the Karoo’s crystal-clear skies, wine tastings, and tree-planting experiences to contribute to conservation efforts. The beautifully landscaped gardens provide a peaceful setting for relaxation and reflection.
