Information about A Lodge on the Lake
 
A Lodge on the Lake is built on the outskirts of Wilderness. Found on the world-renowned Garden Route, Wilderness is also known as the Eden of the southern coast of South Africa. The lodge is an exclusive four star guest house nestled on the hillside overlooking the spectacular Island Lake and the mountains beyond. Nature and architecture blend seamlessly into a setting that surely must be among the most beautiful in the world. Guests are offered internationally competitive exclusivity in both the accommodation and the adjoining wellness spa. Relax in the lounge area and gaze out onto the rim-flow pool and the expanse of lake beyond.

The lodge has 5 magnificently appointed rooms, each with a full en-suite bathroom, private balcony and unsurpassed views over the lake below and the surrounding mountains. The rooms have been individually decorated in sophisticated style with earthy undertones. Not only honeymooners can indulge in the luxury and space of the honeymoon suite with its four poster bed and free-standing stone bath.

Merely walking into the beautifully tranquil wellness spa is an exercise in relaxation. Leave your stress at the front door and allow yourself to sink into the truly sumptuous and restorative experiences. The emphasis of the spa is on whole body wellness and the 3 treatment rooms are sure to leave you feeling revived and invigorated. There are facial treatments, body treatments, massages and Thalgo spa treatments to target stress, muscular strain, cellulite and detoxification, amongst others. And the popular Thalasso treatments are facilitated by a spa bath, jacuzzi and steam room - Thalasso meaning "wellness from the sea". Better still, experience the spa with a loved one and rediscover essential sensory pleasures.
