Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

    Such an amazing place with fantastic, helpful staff! We stayed for 3 nights and did 2 game drives organised by the Lodge. It was such an amazing experience with elephants visiting the lodge & safari so close. Great value for money. Big shout out to Chef Kuda, Immaculate & Ashley for taking care of us! Biggest shout out to our safari guide Mduduzi who guided us to lions, hyenas, giraffes, elephants & more! Thanks for putting up with our banter. Hope to see everyone again!

    From the moment we climbed into the safari jeep to head to the the resort, to the welcoming staff, incredible safari experiences with Marco, delicious food by Chef Conrad, comfortable and beautifully decorated rooms, dining with the elephants, and campfire chats, we were in Zimbabwe heaven!

    I ultimately did not stay at the lodge overnight, cancelling reservation, after having lunch there with the family. Staff was extremely professional and understanding of our rationale for not not staying, so I will not criticize the lodge for an experience cut short.

    Hwange Safari Lodge is in a convenient area to Hwange National Park. The rooms are well appointed, very comfortable and a great place to spend a few days. The facilities and activities offered are very good. Staff are friendly and helpful.

    Everyone was super friendly and hospitable. Authentic and local. Excellent value, especially in context of sky-high pricing for lodges near game drives. Activities were top-notch: our guides made sure we had as satisfying an experience as we had hoped for.

    Absolutely wonderful lodge, everything is perfect. The elefants come everyday to drink water from the near hole, you can watch them closely. Staff is very helpful, we enjoyed our stay very much. The lodge has perfect location very close to Hwange NP (just 3 km). A perfect wilderness. The room was clean, super comfortable bed and hot water. We definately recommed.

    The place and the surroundung are absolutely beautiful. When you are lucky you can see the elephants drinking water from the swimming pool. Sit at the huge fire place at night.The hosts and the stuff were extremely friendly. The guided safari was a joy. And all that pleasure was not even expenisve.
