Ulundi

With eMakhosini Ophathe Heritage Park reachable in 49 km, Zulu Rock Lodge - Babanango Game Reserve features accommodation, a restaurant, an outdoor swimming pool, a shared lounge and a terrace. Both WiFi and private parking are accessible at the lodge free of charge. Exceptionally high quality and comfortable rooms and common areas. The restaurant/kitchen staff and management were welcoming and made us feel incredibly relaxed. So much so I was close to tears sitting by the fire at night drinking the tastey red wine on offer. Our game driver Sibu was a legend! Knowledgeable and friendly and truly cares about the reserve and all the amazing wildlife. The feeling I had inside whilst at Zulu Rock Lodge is indescribable and the best experience of my life by far.
