Otters’ Haunt is a nature lover’s haven nestled on the banks of the Vaal River, just 2 km from the charming town of Parys and 120 km from Johannesburg and O.R. Tambo International Airport, making it a convenient stopover. This off-grid retreat is powered by solar energy and supplied with fresh borehole water, offering an eco-friendly escape into nature. Overlooking a serene river channel, the property provides the perfect vantage point to observe otters, monitor lizards, and a wide array of waterfowl. Guests can safely explore the island’s walking and canoeing trails, making it an ideal getaway for those in search of tranquillity and connection with the natural world.

Self-catering accommodation is offered in various rooms, each with comfortable beds with varying sleeping capacities. Each unit has its own bathroom. Linen and towels are provided.

There are 2 bathrooms, each fitted with a toilet, basin, and bath. The spacious main bedroom boasts beautiful views of the river.
