Tucked away in the lush greenbelt zone of Richards Bay, we are adjacent to the scenic Lake Menywa and the unspoilt beaches of the Indian Ocean. The lodge is conveniently located on a 20 hectare property with a wildlife sanctuary surrounding it, and is within close proximity to the Tuzi Gazi Waterfront, the International heritage site of Lake St Lucia and two world-class game reserves boasting the Big 5. Imvubu Lodge is also close to the CBD as well as the Richards Bay airport. We have a 3 star grading from the Tourism Grading counsel of South Africa and offer the following services.
