Accommodation at Somkhanda Big 5 Tourism comprises various thatched-roof chalets and shady camping sites. Each chalet features a private bathroom and contains amenities such as a ceiling fan, a bar fridge, and tea- and coffee-making facilities; each chalet has access to a communal kitchen with basic appliances to cook meals.

This 12,000-hectare community-owned game reserve forms part of an important conservation area between the Zululand Rhino Reserve and Pongola Game Reserve, particularly for the endangered Black and White rhino and Wild dog.
