Welcome To

Umshanti

Tucked away on the banks of the Buffeljags Dam, Umshanti is where peace, nature, and adventure meet.

Accommodation

Our accommodation is made for every kind of escape — from spacious 10-sleeper houses for groups of friends or families, to cosy couple’s hideaways like The Chapel and our whimsical Gypsy Cottages. For a little extra indulgence, the Ougat family unit comes with its own private KolKol wood-fired hot tub, while our camping sites are perfect for happy campers who love sleeping under the stars.

When it comes to fun, the dam is your playground: enjoy a scenic barge cruise, rent our mini barge, or explore at your own pace with canoe and SUP rentals. Watersport enthusiasts are welcome to bring their own boat for skiing, wakeboarding, or just soaking up the sunshine.

Whether you’re here to unwind or dive into adventure, Umshanti is a place where everyone feels at home.
