Alkira

The word Alkira is from the indigenous word meaning “sky”, and the many patios and terraces of Alkira ensure that guests stay connected to the fresh air and endless vistas that surrounds us. The high ceilings and large windows frame and accentuate the sweeping views across the rolling hills of unique fynbos to the mountains and forests, the Knysna lakes and rivers, the whale sanctuary, endangered butterfly sanctuary, pristine white sand beaches and the endless horizon beyond. Explore Alkira Lodge and find your corner. Take tea in one of our shady outdoor lounge areas, or relax with your holiday read in an armchair fireside or by the pool.
