グワンゴ ヘリテージ リゾート(Gwango Heritage Resort)

What a wonderful place to stay. The staff were super friendly and service excellence was shown at all times. Only remark I want to leave is that a kettle in the lodge would be nice.

This is a gem of a safari lodge. The rooms are beautiful, and so are the facilities. The only thing they have left to update is the dining room and it was 90% ready. The location is perfect right outside Hwange. We actually enjoyed their private concession more and they offer a night drive there as well. The only bad thing was the quality of their safari trucks. Our truck broke down in Hwange once but we were shifted to another lodges truck. It didn’t affect our drive since we were at a viewing platform when it happened. Could have been much worse with no cell service in the park. However, other guest mentioned it broke down three times!

We had such a fabulous time at Gwango! Their staff are top notch and dedicated! We had several game drives with Fortune who kept us entertained all day. He was so committed to showing us the most and we were not disappointed! He knew of many small tracks that led us to obscure pastures full of animals. The cottages are spectacular and spaces all about are beautifully designed and decorated. The price point makes it available for all and we met some very nice people.

The resort is an amazing place. The staff were more than helpful and very friendly. I will be back again. The experience of sitting in the pool whilst an elephant drinks from it is something i wont forget.

Had the most fantastic 3 days at Gwango in January. We were blown away by the subtle beauty of the lodge, attentive and friendly staff and the great value for money- every aspect of our stay was fantastic. We arrived late by public transport, but Thulani was patiently waiting and transferred us to the lodge. Ashley at the front desk was warm, welcoming and ever so helpful. Our guide Fortune gave us excellent game drives and a really interesting cultural tour. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. I would highly recommend Gwango to anyone looking for an authentic and reasonably priced safari experience.

My friend and I recently stayed for a few days in Gwango Resort , We were instantly impressed with the beautiful and immaculate buildings . Fantastic attentive and friendly staff .Great food and beautiful stylish sleeping accommodation. We were particularly impressed by Fourtune our safari guide.He was very knowledgeable , polite and eager to make our trips as enjoyable and informative as possible.With his guidance we managed to encounter most of the wildlife in the park . Also his passion shone through with his knowledge of the history and culture of Zimbabwe.He made it a trip to remember . Thank you so much from Justin Preece and Adrian Gunner .

I visited Gwango with my family, which is located just 800 meters from the Hwange National Park and we had a great time. The staff was very accommodating and pleasant. I liked the natural and chic decor throughout the lodge, which gave off pleasant African vibes. However, the rooms are a bit of a walk from the rest of the facilities, which may be inconvenient when you’re tired. The restaurant’s menu was a bit limited and could be improved. This place has limited connectivity and is perfect for those who want to disconnect from the connected life for a few days. We spent most of our time at the pool above the bar, cooling off from the heat in Hwange. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to witness the elephants drinking from the pool, but I would definitely visit Gwango again.

Absolutely fantastic destination! The staff is amazing, eleven out of ten stars! The food was outstanding, loved the layout of the grounds, and the rooms were quite spacious. The “icing on our cake” was the elephants visiting us while we were in the pool!!!! The park is close so the safaris are easy. I can’t wait to go back!!!

Where do I start?! We stayed for 4 nights and it was just amazing. Every single person was so lovely and kind. Seeing elephants drink from the pool is something I'll remember for the rest of my life. Mahko took us on 3 game drives and his knowledge of the park and the animals is on another level, he's an asset to the lodge. The only negative I have is that we couldn't stay longer than 4 nights. I honestly considered feeding my passport to the elephants so I could stay. The lodges were spacious and lovely, beds so comfy. House keeping come in daily with fresh towels and to make the bed. The managers of the resort were also lovely people, so friendly and welcoming. I fell in love with hwange and without a doubt we will be back. If I could give it 10 stars I would.. I'd live there if I could! I thoroughly enjoyed being stuck at the bar because elephants were blocking the way to our room! Also, chef and the food are top notch too. I honestly can't speak highly enough of the place.
