There’s something special about learning, sharing and creating together. Today, the staff at Bulungula Lodge gathered for a wonderful scones-making session led the Chef umpheki Lipato Shogole

From mixing the ingredients to shaping and baking, it was a beautiful opportunity to share skills, laughter and a little bit of sweetness.

At Bulungula, it’s not just about the food—it’s about community, connection, learning and celebrating the people who make this place so special. ❤️

A big thank you to umpheki Lipato Shogole for sharing his knowledge and passion with the team! 📸 Charmain Carrol SouthAfricaTravel

Discovering indigenous plants and their stories while traveling? Kinda chic if you ask us.❤️‍🔥🤌🏾 This is from the Women’s Power and Cultural Tour with Jabu (in conversation with Esethu Numa), which you can book during your stay with us.🛖🌊

Planted in the homestead when twins are born, Umhlontlo is a succulent plant that secretes a white liquid when one or both twins are unwell and it is also used for its medicinal properties in aiding the healing of the twins.

Beautiful artwork in our newly renovated chill room by candicecruse using driftwood found along our shore.

We love seeing the beauty, creativity and inspiration that can emerge from the landscape around us.🌊

Nature teaches us that winter is a time for slowing down and going within. There’s no better timing than now for this new renovation feature in our chill area to keep us warm and toasty during colder days. More renovation updates to follow.🛖🌊✨

Halala Tess and Josh, halala! 🎉

We were deeply honoured to host Tess and Josh’s special wedding celebration at Bulungula Lodge this past weekend.

Tess is a longtime member of our community and the founder of the local nonprofit Equality Collective, making this occasion feel especially meaningful, as it brought together so many people who have been part of the Bulungula story over the years.

The weekend was a beautiful gathering of our community and Bulungula family alongside Tess and Josh’s family and friends from near and far. There was dancing, cooking, laughter, incredible food, blue skies, bonfires under the stars, heartfelt speeches, and epic Bulungula Beats party nights.

It was also exciting to see all of our new renovations put straight to work for our biggest event yet... our lodge was filled with joy, connection, LOVE and celebration from beginning to end 🌈

Thank you, Tess and Josh, for choosing to celebrate this milestone with us and for creating memories that will stay with all of us for years to come 🌸❤️
