African wilderness.
Your private retreat.
Room for nature.
Freedom to live.
6,300 haBONANZA RANCHPure nature
36,000 haWILDLIFE RESERVESurrounding our ranch
Wind rustles through the grass. A bird calls in the distance. Then, stillness. Our Bonanza Ranch lies in the Klein Karoo, surrounded by an extensive wildlife reserve. Open country stretches to the horizon. A private retreat is taking shape here for people who want not only to visit Africa, but also to spend part of their lives here in the years ahead.
Explore.In private.
Set out with experienced rangers. In private, as an owner or guest. Time to stop, observe wildlife and explore at your own pace.
Watch.Forget the time.
A herd on the horizon. A rustle in the bush. Encounters you cannot put in a diary.
Wildlife needsroom to roam.
The existing wildlife reserve surrounding Bonanza Ranch provides open habitats for South Africa’s wildlife. Preserving this landscape, its biodiversity and rare species is part of the Bonanza vision.
South Africa’sWILDLIFE.
Majestic giraffes among the trees. Herds of zebras on the open plains. Springbok breaking the stillness with a single leap. Bonanza is home to an abundance of wildlife.
Kudu, eland and oryx also roam this landscape. Take your time and more comes into view: a soft rustle, a watchful gaze from the bush, a herd on the horizon.
In theSADDLE
Begin the day with a horse whisperer. Build trust, settle into the saddle and ride into the open country. Personally guided country horse riding. Just you, your horse and the horizon.
With yourRANGER
Follow the tracks of wildlife in a 4×4 jeep with your ranger. Stop, take it in and listen to the stillness. What an experience!
By theWATER
Shimmering water, shady shores, an open sky. Our vision: mornings fishing for largemouth bass, quiet coves explored by kayak, the freedom of a jet ski. The water sports envisaged here leave room for every mood.
Out in theOPEN
Walk through untamed bush. Discover small caves with San rock paintings. Feel the wind on long mountain or gravel bike tours.
Time forA MATCH?
A confident serve. A long rally. Then a seat on the terrace, still warm from the sun, with the evening ahead. Padel, tennis and table tennis for the pleasure of the game.
Focus at the archery range. A keen eye for clay pigeons and target shooting. Or head out to the open fairways of the surrounding countryside.

LongEVENINGS
Warm water on your skin. Deep relaxation in the spa and sauna. Later, the scent of a wood fire drifts through the evening air. A full-bodied wine, a beautifully laid table, familiar faces. Linger by the boma fire as night settles over the stargazing deck.

Arrive.SAVOUR.
From the airport straight to the quiet of the ranch. Personally arranged airport transfers or arrival by helicopter make the journey effortless. Your butler takes care of every detail, while your private chef prepares an evening to savour. Enjoy a wine full of character from our own vineyard. That leaves you with what matters most: time for your guests.
