Villa Uthando is a new addition to the Homes of Africa website and is build in 2023. The villa is located on 10,000 m2 of private land, offers a lot of privacy and has breathtaking views of the Drakensberg Mountains.
Uthando is an important word in several African languages – it means love, affection and the feeling of belonging. After traveling extensively throughout South Africa, this was exactly the feeling the owners have with Hoedspruit and Zandspruit – belonging. For them, Uthando means the love for South Africa, the friendly people, the overwhelming beauty of nature and the magnificent animals. Out of all the incredible wildlife in this Greater Kruger area, the elephants are their favorites, so that is why this majestic animal is reflected in the logo of this villa.
The villa has been decorated with great care. Luxury and comfort, the use of natural materials and sustainability are central to this. The color scheme has been chosen in such a way that it fits perfectly into the environment of the African bush. The villa has a very spacious living room with double glass sliding door and mountain view and is equipped with a lovely lounge sofa and spacious dining room table. A Smart TV and Sonos are also provided.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a large cooking island, oven, microwave, dishwasher and Nespresso coffee maker.

All Homes of Africa holiday villas are located on Zandspruit Bush & Aero Estate (Hoedspruit, Limpopo), an area of 1000 hectares of pristine and beautiful South African bush where only guests and residents of Zandspruit Estate have free access. There are harmless wild animals on Zandspruit Estate, so it is possible that you come face to face with a zebra or giraffe during a walking safari. So you can go on a game drive in your own backyard! In addition, it often happens that the animals come to take a look at the houses or even take a sip from the swimming pool.
Within 10 minutes you are in the pleasant village of Hoedspruit with several fantastic restaurants, supermarkets and shops. In the vicinity you can enjoy game drives, the Panorama route and the Kruger Park.
