lodge, meaning hippo in Zulu, was inspired by the famous "Huberta the Hippo"
who undertook the historic journey from Zululand to East London. 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.

Currently
under development is the "bird and small animal sanctuary", in conjunction
with the local bird and wildlife associations, as well as experts in nature
conservation.
The
entire estate will be fenced off - game reserve style - enabling us to
re-introduce small animals and re-habilitate the forest to its previous
pristine state. By doing so, we hope to attract even more birds to compliment
the already abundant bird life and may even be able to find a mate for
our lonesome goliath heron.
The
sanctuary will encompass 18 hectares with designated eco-trails, footpaths,
hides and viewpoints.
