Description

The untamed, the elegant, the land, the luxury:
Mvuradona is a "Dream come true in Africa"
a typical African colonial lifestyle surrounded by wildlife, daily animal encounters around the lodge, complimentary game strolls along the river, fine dining and all the comforts you want on vacation.
The Lodge:
The architecture depicts an authentic african thatch lodge with beautifully appointed Suites in white linens and teak furniture.
Accommodation options include Luxury/Honeymooners Suites, DBL & Twin Suites, Family Suites and Stand Alone Lodge Units for large families.
The lodge pool deck spills out over the African bush where guests can relax and enjoy in promtude visits from our resident zebra, giraffe, warthog, impala and other little creatures like mongoose and the Franklin.
Dining is always a gastronomic affair at Mvuradona and we take great pride in scrumptious buffet breakfasts on our outdoor deck to the sounds of the magnificent morning bird sounds. Evenings are spent enjoying romantic 3 course "bush lattern" dinners under the starry skies in typical African safari style.
After dinner sink into a chair around our boma fire and relax to the sounds of the wild.
