Miombo Mountain Lodge is a brand new luxury lodge located only a half hours drive from Harare in Christon Bank, on the Mazowe Road. The lodge has been cleverly built in amongst the natural Miombo Woodlands, providing a nice, cool and relaxing environment in which to unwind and refresh. The bird life is fantastic, and there is also unique flora and fauna around the lodge’s grounds and surrounding area.
The lodge’s central entertainment area is situated facing the Mazowe Valley, offering the most magnificent views across the valley. There are a variety of spaces where you can relax and enjoy the view, from the bar or dining area, to the comfortable seating area adjacent to this. The bar offers cold refreshments, as well as tea and coffee, throughout the day. But the most popular location at the lodge is a hard one to choose, either the gorgeous outside pool or the private spa, which offers not only manicures, pedicures, facials, and massages, but also has a custom built couple’s massage room too!
There are 3 different types of rooms on offer as listed below:
7 x Luxury Cabins
