Hospitable, clean, neat, all necessities, definitely recommended. My 2 sons and I stayed in tents while they were competing in a deep sea fishing competition. The unit is very neat and clean and is serviced every day. It has everything you need, just pack clothes and swimming towels. It is safe and there are people on the premises who drop in every day to make sure we have everything we need. It is a few km drive from the beach, but close to the main road and a normal vehicle can easily drive to the lodge. We didn't need an alarm clock, thanks to a couple of Sodwana roosters crowing early and making sure we were on the beach before sunrise, in time for a day of fishing. It might have disturbed the neighbours after a late night around the boma fire. We were treated to traditional Zulu dancing around the boma one evening. We are very happy with the stay and can definitely recommend it. We are already planning for next time. Nwabu goes out of their way to make sure it is a holiday to remember.

Gasvry, skoon, netjies, alle benodighede, beslis aanbeveel. Ek en my 2 seuns het in tente gewoon terwyl hulle aan 'n diepsee hengelkompetisie deelgeneem het. Die eenheid is baie netjies en skoon en word ook elke dag gediens. Dit bevat alles wat jy nodig het, hoef net klere en swemhandoeke te pak. Dis veilig en daar is mense op die perseel wat elke dag inloer om seker te maak ons het als wat nodig is. Dis 'n paar km se ry van die strand af, maar naby aan die groot pad en 'n gewone voertuig kan met gemak ry tot by die lodge. Ons het geen wekker nodig gehad nie, danksy 'n paar Sodwana hane wat vroeg kraai en seker maak ons is voor sonop op die strand, betyds vir 'n hengeldag. Dit kon dalk die bure steur na 'n laataand om die boma-vuur. Ons was een aand bederf met die tradisionele Zoeloe dans om die boma. Ons is baie tevrede met die verblyf en kan beslis aanbeveel. Ons beplan reeds vir die volgende keer. Nwabu doen moeite om seker te maak dis 'n vakansie om te onthou.

Welcoming, friendly, lovely, clean, neat, beautiful, just lovely. Incredible place with lovely people. Would recommend Nwubu to anyone looking for a peaceful holiday.

Verwelkomend, vriendelik, dierbaar, skoon, netjies, pragtig net heerlik. Ongelooflike plek met dierbare mense. Sal Nwubu aanbeveel vir enige persone wat 'n rustige vakansie wil geniet.

Amazing experience, clean and well kept with friendly staff. Location is perfect. We absolutely loved our time at Nwabu Lodge. The camp is spotless and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The pool area is great, as well as the dining area. We had fun playing pool and darts. The location is perfect as well. Nicely placed between the beach and the town. The entertainment that was organised was also great, even though we couldn't attend all of it. We have some suggestions for improving the glamping part of the camp (where we stayed). These are not complaints, only suggestions: The shower: To prevent unnecessary maintenance to the bathroom, extend the shower floor from wall to wall to prevent splashing onto the wooden floor and tile the rest of the wall around the shower. This will prevent possible mould or rot from occurring and also prevent the floor from being slippery. Power: Install a multi-plug in the kitchenette where the fridge is plugged in and have cabling running from that power supply to the tent so that the guest has a power point to charge devices inside the tent instead of risking leaving them in the kitchen to charge. It can run around the back and through the same door that the fan's cable comes through. You can also have the cable be directly connected to the conduit. Remotes for lights: We found that only two of the remotes worked for the lights, and that the bathroom and sink light were on the same remote. Maybe label the remotes so that all know which remote controls which light. Even just a colour code would work. Chest of drawers: We suggest putting silica gel sachets or some other dehydrating solution inside the chest of drawers, as we noticed some damp forming inside them due to the humidity. This will prevent any mould from happening and causing possible illness to sensitive guests. The cleaning staff should also make sure the insides of the drawers are wiped down as well. Look into WiFi repeaters to boost the signal to the back of the camp as well, if possible. Highly recommend this lodge for some quiet time away from the busy city life.

Stayed for a week to swim and scuba dive with 4 teenagers. The lodge was great. Nice location and plenty of space for our family. The staff and manager were very helpful and made our stay very enjoyable. We will be back!

Friendly and get exactly what was advertised. The venue was great. However, the neighbours were very noisy. Nickus on site looked after us very well!
