Ideal for nature lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and have kitchen facilities. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than vacation homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
The lodge offers a gorgeous view of the river mouth and the painted rondavels are very pretty.
The lodge is entirely managed by the community and offers plenty of activities also benefitting the community.
The staff is very welcoming and the traditional dinner was delicious.
The road to get there can be tough and so you need a good car!
We went to Bulungula for the second time and we were surprised to see how things have improved. Our Rondavel was very cozy and we felt very welcome at the lodge. The Tours offered by local peole are amazing and our guides were incredibly friendly and answered all our questions.
Another big plus was the food; from breakfast to dinner we always ate wonderful local food!
Also the road to Bulungula seems to have been improved from last time. Still a bit challenging at some places but absolutely doable, even for small cars.
This community owned eco lodge is worth every bit of the effort to get there! Warm, friendly staff, spectacular location (beyond words), and delicious well priced meals. We woke up every morning to the most beautiful sunrises and watched dolphins riding the waves as the sun set. Fantastic family holiday. We have visited before and will most definitely visit again!
