There are eighteen thatched chalets on wooden decks; two suites, three family rooms, three double rooms, and ten twin rooms. Each chalet is equipped with en-suite shower, twin basins and WC, and a comfortable sitting area. The suites’ king sized beds and en-suite bathtubs add an extra level of indulgence to these luxurious accommodations. Set beneath a canopy of ebony and mahogany trees, the charming wood and textile decor of the lodge’s interiors pays homage to the splendor of the natural world outside. And if it’s nature you’re interested in, you’ve come to the right place. Where else can you sit in the lobby and watch a small herd of elephants parade on the tile floors, marching past you to reach the Wild Mango tree inside the lodge grounds? Your friends at home won’t believe how close you came to these magnificent creatures on their way to a snack of fallen fruit.

Enjoy freshly-made breakfasts, buffet lunches and gourmet dinners under African skies in the reed-enclosed boma which includes a bar and lounge for your comfort. A full English breakfast is prepared on a wood and charcoal grill in a nearby shady grove once a week.

The enchanting thatch-and-timber Mfuwe Lodge offers a cool, airy and comfortable stay on the banks of a lagoon that teems with wildlife. The central open-plan lodge provides plenty of comfortable spaces in which to relax, lounge, dine or enjoy a refreshing drink at the bar. The generous wooden deck and swimming pool overlook the lagoon and you will have the unforgettable experience of watching hippos while you take a cooling dip in the swimming pool or enjoy a sundowner drink. The nature conservation library has its own deck shaded by giant ebony trees while the private Bush Spa offers contemporary treatments and massages for your body and beautiful views of the river for your soul.
