As owners of Ilita Lodge we are passionate about the hospitality industry and our beautiful environment, and love when travelers both local and international get to have some memorable experiences visiting South Africa, and more specifically the Garden Route.
We carry a deep belief in transformation and social development, and we make it a priority to make sure our staff team knows and understands they are our biggest asset. Read any of our reviews and you will quickly see our staff team is at the heart of what we do!
With 12 lodge rooms and 7 self-catering units, Ilita Lodge offers a choice of accommodation types to suit your needs. Choose a luxury bed and breakfast room in our Lodge or opt for a more casual self-catering apartment for you and your family.
Remember that we offer a range of benefits for guests who book directly with us so be sure to make your reservation on our website or contact us directly on stay@ilitalodge.co.za.
Locals and visitors alike enjoy the sumptuous offerings from the Ilita Lodge kitchen! Pop into Deja View for a cup of coffee made with the best locally sourced beans or enjoy a decadent slice of cake over a meeting or stay for a long lazy lunch with a glass of wine (or a cold beer) on our Sky Deck.
*Subject to coffee shop operating hours.
A relaxed and fully-catered traditional braai under the stars in our open-air lapa is a favourite with our conference guests or work with our catering team to create a custom menu for your special day.
We pride ourselves in being the place to go to make special memories. It’s hard not to have an incredible holiday when you are surrounded by natural beauty, warm hospitality and comfortable luxury accommodation – all topped off with a wonderful event or adventure experience.

Guests have enjoyed our hospitality for almost two decades since Ilita Lodge opened as a 10-bedroom guesthouse in 2006. We have since expanded our rooms and facilities but our personalised and cheerful service has remained as good as ever. Find out what previous guests have had to say!
We also have a vision of community transformation and development, and Ilita Lodge was bought for that very purpose in 2015 - to become a financial engine for our partner foundation, the Wonderful SA Foundation. To date Ilita Lodge has partnered with the Wonderful SA Foundation for multiple community projects, employs a number of people that came through the Foundation's training and mentoring programs, and actively assists in transformation projects where possible.
