About this place
Jozini Tiger Lodge & Spa stands on a hilltop above Lake Jozini, in the far north of KwaZulu-Natal on the Elephant Coast, with the Lebombo Mountains across the water. The building takes its form from a traditional Zulu stronghold, and every one of its 70 rooms faces the lake from a private balcony.
Rooms range from Classic and Deluxe rooms to family Loft Rooms with a sleeping loft and Executive Suites with a lounge and kitchen, all with natural wood furnishings and floor-to-ceiling sliding doors onto the view. A separate two-bedroom villa with a loft has its own pool and braai area, and a shuttle runs to the main lodge.
Days are shaped by the lake: tiger fishing with a guide or straight off the jetty, sundowner and wildlife cruises, kayaks and pedal boats, and walking and birding trails from the lodge. Children have the 227 m Hillside Super Slide, a splash zone and the supervised Dream Xplorers programme; adults have the rim-flow pool, a gym and steam room, and the Mangwanani Dream Spa, whose therapists were trained from the Lake Jozini community.
Breakfast is included, and the restaurant, wrapped in a viewing deck, serves buffet and a la carte meals through the day, with boma dinners for groups.
