Ngoye Lodge

I am not a bird watcher, but I have never in my life appreciated birds as much as with my visit to Ngoye Lodge. We stayed in the main house with a lovely garden, large lounge and dining room, as well as two stylishly decorated rooms both with on-suite bathrooms. The Ngoye team provided us with breakfast next to the pool and was very helpful with all that we needed. They are also currently betting Fair Trade Tourism certified and I can highly recommend a stay at Ngoye Lodge.

Spacious 4 bed accommodation with private garden. Perfect for our family group. Very good value for money and helpful staff.

absolutely loved my stay at Ngoye Lodge. I stayed in the Lion Room, which featured a luxurious en-suite bathroom, a small kitchen, and a cozy study that allowed me to catch up on some much-needed work. The views from my desk were spectacular, surrounded by indigenous trees, with a host of chattering birds and monkeys providing constant amusement. The lodge is very quiet and comfortable, truly feeling like a home away from home. I parked my bike outside, ready to explore the many beautiful forested coastal walking and hiking trails. The refreshing pool in the courtyard is perfect for cooling off during the hot summers. The staff are incredibly accommodating, with Karin, the Manager, being a passionate custodian of the village. She is involved in every board and volunteer group and is a wealth of information about this fascinating little town. Karin even joined me in scouting routes and introduced me to local villagers. As a staunch environmentalist, it is important for me to stay in a place that upholds my environmental values. Ngoye Lodge ticks all the boxes in terms of sustainable practices. They encourage composting, indigenous gardening, and recycling while providing employment opportunities and skill development for the local community. The lodge is in the process of obtaining Fair Trade certification, which they undoubtedly deserve. The breakfasts, served in the charming garden, are to die for, with delicious and freshly cooked meals prepared by the chef. Ngoye Lodge offers an ideal location, great value for money, and a commitment to environmental friendliness. It is charming, beautiful, and clean. This is the best accommodation I have experienced in Mtunzini.
