Tula Retreat
 
About us
 

Tula Retreat is located on the water's edge of the Calitzdorp dam in the Western Cape and offers quality accommodation ideal for a couple or friends. It is the perfect destination for those seeking a tranquil getaway and complete privacy. The beautiful self-catering tent, Jala, accommodates 2 guests. The open-plan tent is furnished with an extra-length king-size bed, and the en-suite bathroom is fitted with a bath and washbasin, opening up to a patio with breathtaking views. Guests have use of an outdoor shower and biodegradable toiletries are provided. The open-plan living area features tea and coffee-making facilities, and a comfortable couch with a fireplace, overlooking the beautiful natural surroundings. There is no electricity inside the unit, only LED lights, making it perfect for reconnecting with one another off the grid. Guests can relax and enjoy the view from the wood-fired hot tub which is located a short walk away. The camp boasts a private safari-style bush kitchen approximately 100 m from the tent. It is equipped with a gas stove and oven, a gas fridge, and a firepit. An additional bathroom with a shower is also available. Wi-Fi facilities and solar power points are available in the outdoor kitchen area, allowing guests to share their experience with friends and family. Daily wood and firelighters are included, and additional wood is available on request at an additional cost. Guests have access to our private slipway should they want to bring a boat. Skiing, jetskiing and Yellowfish fishing are allowed. Enjoy a boat cruise or fun guided kayak tour with beautiful views in the heart of the Little Karoo (charged per person and can be booked upon arrival). Please note that access to Tula Retreat is by boat only. Free parking is available behind a gate on the opposite side of the Calitzdorpdam at the Fish Eagle Private Resort. From there, guests will be ferried via boat to the accommodation, situated approximately 40 m from the water's edge. For this reason, check-in is strictly by 18h00, as guests cannot be collected by boat in the dark. It is important to bring enough snacks and food for your stay, as there are no shops nearby. Alternatively, self-catering meal kits can be ordered and collected in Calitzdorp town on your way to Tula. A staff member will be available to take guests to their vehicle if it’s urgent. Staff are available between 08h00 to 17h00. The Klein Karoo will leave guests feeling in awe of the magic around them, at peace with life as it is and inspired by how precious each moment truly is. Awake to the crisp, clean air of this valley, abundant with spekboom. Return to the clarity of your purpose.
