Ezulwini River Lodge

Description

Ezulwini Game Lodges are situated in
the centre of the Greater Kruger National Park, Balule Nature Reserve
section, which is approximately 17 kilometres from Hoedspruit making it
easily accessible from both Hoedspruit and Phalaborwa. It is approximately 5
hours drive from Johannesburg. We are situated in a very low
risk malaria area and have never had a case of malaria at our
lodges.
 
Ezulwini, the Zulu word for 'Place
of Paradise', where Africa remains unspoiled.
The emphasis at our Lodges is on friendliness and informality. Our staff are
well trained and professional to ensure your stay is even more memorable.
Ezulwini prides itself on being able to offer an exceptional African setting,
indigenous fauna and flora as well as unique character and charm, to provide you
with an authentic, African experience. 
All lodge rooms have new silent climate control air conditioning and
heating facilities, mini bars and elegant mosquito nets. Please note that
check-in time is 14:00 and check-out time is 11:00. Please make prior
arrangements should you require alternate times.


The magnificent Olifants River,
largest of all of the lowveld rivers flows through the northern area of
Ezulwini, and it is here in the riverine forest, where this luxury lodge is located.  Two of the largest trees in South
Africa, a sycamore fig (Ficus Sycamorus) with a diameter in excess of five
metres and a leadwood tree (Combretum Imberbe) in excess of two metre diameter,
grow in our riverine forest. This region is home to Hippos, Crocodiles,
Elephants and massive Riverine Trees and is an excellent
venue for the avid bird watcher.  
River Lodge has an exquisite entertainment area comprising a lounge,
bar and swimming pool, all under a large thatched roof.  Relax here in welcoming
deep sofas and marvel at magnificent leadwood sculptures.  The enormous wooden
dining deck set in the riverine vegetation, which looks out over the Olifants
River and an elevated thatched viewing deck overlooking the bush, add to the
special ambiance of this lodge.  Superb cuisine and skilled rangers will enhance
your safari and leave you with an experience of Africa which you will remember
forever. Luxury, thatched, twin bed chalets, with en-suite bathrooms,
accommodating a maximum of 14 guests gives a charm that only a small camp can possess.


The rooms which
were built in the 1940's have been beautifully restored and furnished with
antiques from that period and have 220V, 50Hz electrical supply, potable drinking
water, Insect-proof window screens,
elegant mosquito nets,
