The Details

This region of the park boasts frequent sightings of giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes, and crocodiles. In November, the resident elephants often meander through the lodgeโ€™s lobby, drawn by the allure of nearby wild mango trees. Whether staying overnight or stopping by for lunch en route to a bush camp, Mfuwe Lodge's inviting ambiance and breathtaking surroundings make it the perfect retreat.

Lounge on the open deck, take a refreshing dip in the pool, or indulge in a pampering session at the Bush Spa.

Accommodation

With 18 air-conditioned guest chalets and a spacious 2-bedroom Directorโ€™s House, Mfuwe Lodge provides a haven of comfort and luxury. The airy interiors seamlessly blend with the surrounding wilderness, creating an atmosphere of serenity and relaxation.

Each chalet offers a secluded covered veranda with views of wallowing hippos and other wildlife. The chalets are equipped with large, comfortable beds, mosquito nets, air conditioning, a relaxed sitting area, and en-suite bathrooms, featuring panoramic walk-in showers. These tranquil retreats provide the perfect sanctuary to unwind and soak in the African wilderness.

Activities

At Mfuwe Lodge, the game-viewing opportunities are unparalleled. Led by seasoned guides, game drives are conducted at dawn and late afternoonโ€”when wildlife is most active. Following sundowners in the bush, spotlights illuminate the night, revealing the nocturnal creatures that thrive under the cover of darkness. This unique experience allows guests to observe a diverse array of wildlife, making the area around Mfuwe Lodge a premier safari destination.

Wellness

The Bush Spa offers a contemporary range of eastern and western treatments, each adapted to suit the surroundings and leave you feeling revitalized. The spa provides a unique blend of relaxation and wildlife observation from its private deck overlooking a vibrant lagoon. Immerse yourself in a herbal Jacuzzi or unwind with a Zambian reflexology foot massage while watching animals by the water. With its classic design and panoramic views, the spa engages all your senses and offers a tranquil retreat.
