Mantis Hiddn in Addo

Mantis Hiddn in Addo is set high within its own exclusive 800-hectare private reserve, surrounded by pristine wilderness. A mountain sanctuary of understated luxury, offering space to slow down, breathe deeply and rediscover yourself through nature. The 14 luxury suites and villas, seemingly suspended between earth and sky, offer a vantage point from which you can absorb the serenity, silence and beauty that swathes the wilderness below you.

Enjoy expeditions into the Addo Elephant Park to see Africa’s Big Five in their natural habitat and in the unspoiled splendour of the Eastern Cape. Your time at Hiddn is a journey of discovery, guided by your dedicated and intuitive personal host. From intimate safari excursions to a guided nature walk to the river, rewilding, star gazing, nocturnal experiences, private dining and tailored wellness rituals. It’s about turning ordinary into extraordinary.

Wellness at Hiddn is not a schedule or a set menu of treatments. It is the essence of the guest experience, embedded into the pace of each day, the stillness of the setting, and the way the retreat is designed to make guests feel. Hiddn is created for travellers seeking restoration, clarity, and reconnection, with wellness offered through meaningful rituals rather than rigid programming.
Each stay is shaped around intention. Guests are welcomed into the experience through personalised moments and intention-setting rituals, creating space to define what they wish to gain from their time at Hiddn, whether that is deep rest, emotional reset, renewed energy, or creative expression. From there, the team curates a wellness journey aligned to each guest’s preferences, needs, and desired pace.

At Hiddn, luxury is quiet and leaves an indelible memory … this eco-lodge doesn’t merely offer a luxurious retreat and escape, it redefines it.
