Situated between the Kruger National Park and the Zululand Coast - the same Africa, a different world!

For those seeking a little adventure, there is the magnificent Maputaland coast to explore and fishing is available on Pongolapoort Dam. The Zululand Battlefields are in close proximity and there are many sites of historical importance to visit. The Reserve is located on land that once formed part of the 'Boer Republic', created when the pioneer leader, Piet Retief, bought the land from Dingaan, half- brother of the great Zulu King, Shaka.

It is a place of pure tastes and simple delights, celebrating the thrill of nature.

This is the place with the sound and beauty of water falling...

This seeps into your soul...

The Lodge

Accommodation at Mkuze Falls Game Lodge consists of eight thatched chalets, a safari suite and a central complex, which are built on raised wooden platforms and have spacious verandas. These private balconies provide stunning views of the Falls or the perennial Mkuze River to the hills beyond.

The centrally located facilities include a pleasant dining area, a comfortable lounge, an indoor pub, a shady terrace and a  swimming pool. 

There is also a fully equipped, air conditioned conference room catering for 18 participants.

The large lounge leads onto a spacious viewing deck which is built over the sloping riverbank. This verandah provides panoramic views of the winding Mkuze River and the wild, untamed landscape beyond. In the heat of the day, you can relax under the shady palm trees and take a refreshing swim in the sparkling pool. In the evenings, enjoy some lively entertainment provided by the energetic, traditional Zulu dancers.

Highly experienced kitchen and waiting staff have been trained to indulge and delight the most discerning guests. The menu varies daily and features a host of South African dishes including local venison specialities during the hunting season. Vegetarian meals are prepared on request. In fine weather, dinner or a South African 'braai' (barbecue) is served in the Boma.

Tented Lodge

Mkuze Falls Game Reserve now offers a new and adventurous experience at their Tented Lodge.

Five 'Hemingway'-style East African safari tents are uniquely situated on the Mkuze River,  where a wide variety of animals come to drink.

The tents are built on wooden decks raised on stilts with beautiful views of the lush countryside.

The facilities include a lounge, bar, boma and swimming pool.

The luxurious and beautifully decorated East African safari tents enhance your bush experience in comfort and style. Each tent has double / twin beds, a mini bar, airconditioning and overhead fan, mosquito nets and en-suite facilities including a Victorian-style, free-standing bath and an inside / outside shower.

The tents are built on wooden decks raised on stilts, linked together by timbered walk-ways. They are positioned to ensure complete privacy and panoramic views of the surrounding hills and the Mkuze River below.

Starlit evenings are enjoyed in the boma and the sounds of the Zulu drumbeat beckon the pure spirit of Africa. The evening air is broken by the call of the Night Jar, the sounds of Zebra in the distance, the unexpected roar of the Lion and the trumpet of the Elephant. The pure sounds of Africa!
