Mpumelelo on Kosi offers self-catering chalets located in one of the last unspoilt areas of South Africa, in Kosi Bay Nature Reserve. The reserve is a haven of tranquillity, awe-inspiring vistas, and crystal clear water. The unspoilt nature of the area also means that guests are highly recommended to bring a 4x4 vehicle to reach the various attractions.

Mpumulelo on Kosi offers unrivalled access to this naturally beautiful area, consisting of 2 self-catering chalets that can accommodate up to 4 people in each. Each chalet comprises an open-plan living and is furnished with 1 double bed and 2 single beds, and each unit has a private bathroom. Each unit features a kitchenette area on a raised platform overlooking the indigenous forest, which contains basic appliances such as a fridge, a gas stove, a kettle, and a selection of crockery and utensils.

What better way to prepare a meal than with the sound of some of the approximately 250 bird species in the area, or relax on the cool deck and capture them on camera to your heart's content.

For those whose idea of paradise is fishing, a permit will give you access to surf and rock angling, where you'll delight in the Kingfish, Rock Cod, Red Snapper, sharks and rays, or in one of the gorgeous lakes where you'll find Grunter, Stumpnose, Mullet, Kingfish, Rock salmon and Yellowfin Bream. You're welcome to bring your own category R or C boat for the inland lake and sea. The resident boating expert will also happily organise trips on the lake for a small fee, where you can set up for an unforgettable picnic lunch on the shore. Hiking trails are in abundance in this unblemished part of the world, as are snorkelling and turtle tours. In fact, there's so much to do at Kosi Bay that you'll be ready for a sound night's sleep after evenings spent on the deck in the company of the night's sounds.
