Twelve in total. Eight suites in the main lodge — six standard Prana Suites, one Forest Suite, and one Diamond Suite — plus a separate four-bedroom Beach House for exclusive use. The intimate size means high staff-to-guest ratios, and the whole property can be taken on a private basis for retreats and family groups.

Modern South African cooking with a Wild Coast bias — local produce, seafood, and seasonal menus set in the indigenous dune forest beside Chintsa Bay. The Restaurant is open to in-house guests and to non-resident diners. The menu changes regularly with the season; the team is happy to accommodate dietary requirements with notice.

Staffed, with a private pool and direct beach access. Ideal for families and small groups taking the house on a private basis. Enquire direct for available dates.
Prana is partially wheelchair accessible. Some areas of the lodge and selected suites can accommodate guests with mobility limitations, but the dune-forest setting involves uneven terrain in places. Contact the reservations team in advance to discuss specific needs and confirm suitability.
