Relax and unwind in your oak panelled cabin with the stars reflecting on the water and the moonlight shining through your window.... what a perfect way to end your evening!
All the cabins are en-suite with shower, basin and toilet and all have mosquito netting, plug points and fans. The water system is top class resulting in a hot pressurized shower and there are plug points in the rooms - so ladies you have the luxury of blow-drying your hair!

For bigger groups, sleeper couches on the top deck are used to accommodate an extra 4 people who then share an ablution facility. For larger groups, by hiring both the boats, you are able to accommodate a maximum of 36 passengers.

The Activities:

Tiger Fishing - Lake Jozini is the only water in South Africa where you find the ferocious fighting Tiger Fish, an African game fish, which sends you thrills as it jumps out the water, throwing his head from side to side trying to get off your line. Tackle and rods are available for hire.


Game Viewing - The Lake is surrounded by the Pongola Game Reserve and Phongolo Nature Reserve, which provide spectacular game viewing from the water`s edge. The Reserves are teaming with a large variety of wildlife which can be viewed from the Shayamanzi decks or the tender boats.


Birding - The area is a birder`s paradise hosting over 350 species of bush birds, raptors and water birds. Set against the Lebombo Mountains, the Lake becomes a breeding zone for cormorants, herons, ducks, storks and many more. Between May and November there is a fantastic hive of activity not to be missed.
