Description

Sodwana Bay Lodge and Hotel Resort is placed in the heart of Maputaland on the western shore of Lake Shazibe, bordered by the world’s highest naturally vegetated dunes which shelter the golden beaches of the lush interior. The area is surrounded by fertile swamps and sand forests with rare and protected animal and plant species, as well as wide lakes and extensive river estuaries which are full of life. The careful design of the lodge has been done in order to match the rustic, Eco-orientated nature of the Kwa Zulu Natal region. There is a full range of dive courses offered and is run by the fully-equipped PADI 5 star IDC scuba centre. There are over 1200 different tropical marine fish to be seen in the many coral reefs at the mecca, Sodwana Bay Lodge. Magnum Fishing Charters are also on site for that deep sea fishing experience.

Nice place
annegret meyer, Andorra
15 January 2012
We loved our lodge and prolonged the stay to 14 days! The staff were very nice, helpful and friendly. The only mistake was that we book with meals! The food in the restaurant is just horrible. We tried three different meals and unfortunately no improvement. So we had to switch over to a restaurant in the neighborhood and lost the money for that. Over all, we will definitely come back, but only rent a self-catering!

We loved the wooden chalet and the outlay of the room. It was awesome having our own balcony which overlooked the garden. We could hear the ocean clearly and loved the sounds of wildlife. The restaurant was large and rustic with friendly service. The food was fantastic with melt-in-your-mouth calamari.
Very relaxing

My wife and I are inland scuba divers (dams and old flooded mines) so to travel the long distance to get to the sea must have accommodation which was well worth the trip. Sodwana Bay Lodge welcomed us and looked after us for the whole long weekend. We can't wait to come back again and again.
Lovely family getaway

It was a very lovely experience. A little issue with my booking but the staff at the lodge were so accommodating. The chalet as well as the hotel room was neat and very comfortable. The kids had a ball during their stay. The restaurant was exceptional, the food good,staff very pleasant. The restaurant manager was helpful and pleasant. It was a lovely family weekend. Will definitely return.
