LIVING
The open-plan living area features a comfortable couch with a fireplace, overlooking the beautiful natural surroundings. There is a kitchenette in the tent for tea and coffee. Relax and enjoy the view in the wood-fired hot tub. There is no electricity inside the unit, only LED lights, making it perfect for reconnecting with one another off the grid.
The camp boasts a private outdoor kitchen approximately 100 m from the tent. It is equipped with a gas stove, a gas fridge and a fire pit. There is an additional bathroom with a shower. Wi-Fi facilities and solar power points are available at the outdoor kitchen area, allowing guests to share their experience with friends and family.
Guests have access to the private slipway should they want to bring a boat (skiing and jet skiing are permitted on the dam). Boat cruises are charged at R200 per person and can be booked upon arrival. A two-seater canoe and Stand Up Paddle Board are available for guests to use. Yellow Fish fishing is allowed.
GUEST ACCESS
Please note that access to the retreat is by boat only. There is free parking for your vehicle behind a gate on the opposite side of the Calitzdorp Dam at the Fish Eagle Private Resort (approximately 8km from the centre of Calitzdorp town on a gravel road). There is no reception at the parking area; therefore, an approximate arrival time needs to be confirmed beforehand, leaving enough time for a staff member to leave and meet you there. From there, you will be ferried via boat to your private tent, situated approximately 40 metres from the water's edge. For this reason, check-in is strictly by 6 p.m., as guests cannot be collected by boat in the dark.
