Resort Signage
New signage has been installed throughout the Resort, featuring vibrant colours designed to catch guests' attention. With updated details and increased size for better visibility, the signs help create a smoother, more engaging experience for visitors by improving navigation and key information clarity.

Welcome Wall
The Welcome Wall received a fresh transformation, addressing longstanding damp issues and adding a vibrant new colour scheme. Polished brass lettering now adds an elegant touch, making this landmark a welcoming and aesthetically pleasing focal point for visitors.

Road Markings
Resort road markings were stripped and repainted to prevent surface cracking and deterioration. The newly painted road and parking bay markings ensure better visibility and a more efficient parking system for guests.

Commercial Building
Improvements were made to the restaurant, including damp repairs, handrails, and balustrading installation following safety inspections. Additionally, Mbali Spa received a new coat of paint, while cracked basins and faulty mixers were replaced, revitalising the spa for guests.

Garden Pots
The decorative garden pots have been restored and refinished, enhancing the overall ambiance and aesthetic appeal of the Resort’s gardens. This rejuvenation brings a fresh, welcoming atmosphere for guests to enjoy.

Parking Bays
The Resort has started repainting parking bays after noticing fading paint. Hippo Bend and units 308–317 have already been completed, with the rest of the Resort to follow soon.

Gardens
The Resort’s gardens have been replanted and thinned out to promote better growth and improve their design. Essential repairs were made, including ranch fencing and dam maintenance to remove overgrown aquatic weeds, restoring the dam’s natural flow and improving the landscape.

Doors & Frames
Damaged door frames, caused by termites or rot, are being inspected and replaced as necessary. This ongoing project ensures structural integrity and safety for all Resort units.

Fridges
All fridges across the Resort have been successfully replaced, with 58 new units installed, enhancing both functionality and guest satisfaction.

Dishwashers
The Resort has installed 90 Bosch dishwashers as part of the refurbishment project, which is now at 56.6% completion. This upgrade has resulted in a notable decrease in related complaints, further improving guest experiences.

Chimney Maintenance
Chimneys across the Resort have been inspected and cleaned, with cowls greased and spark arrestors checked. These essential maintenance tasks ensure optimal airflow and safety.

Staff Training
Weekly housekeeping training sessions continue, reinforcing best practices and ensuring staff remain updated on current procedures. This ongoing education ensures the maintenance of high standards and operational efficiency.

Reservoir Service & Repairs
Following reservoir servicing, selected vessels were replaced, and a new distribution manifold was installed to resolve water pressure issues, resulting in a more reliable water system throughout the Resort.

Bat Proofing
A bat-proofing project is underway, with chicken mesh being installed beneath the roof overhangs and patios of affected chalets. Though progress has been slower due to guest occupancy, the project will continue to ensure all units are bat-free.

General Maintenance & Repairs
Broken pipes were repaired or replaced to restore water flow. Standard green garden lights were upgraded to RGB spotlights, enhancing visual appeal and functionality.

Father's Day 2024
Father’s Day this year was a tribute to honouring fathers and father figures, crafted with thoughtful details that celebrated strength and warmth. The reception area featured a masculine, stylish theme that combined rustic charm with a modern touch, creating a setting of both elegance and cosiness. Guests received hand-crafted soaps as a token of gratitude, adding a heartfelt touch to a memorable celebration for all the fathers in attendance.

Guests were welcomed with scented candles, a thoughtful gift that added to the warm, inviting atmosphere. The glowing responses from attendees were a testament to the success of the day.

Spring Day
We welcomed the arrival of Spring with a burst of vibrant colour, despite the chilly weather. The reception area transformed into a spring-inspired oasis, decorated with bright flowers and colourful umbrellas hanging from above. Guests were treated to doughnuts and ice cream, a delightful touch that brought warmth and cheer to the day, setting the perfect tone for the new season.

Heritage Day
Heritage Day was celebrated with spirited South African pride, as the reception area came alive with colours of the national flag and vibrant African-inspired decorations. The space was filled with balloons and traditional attire, creating a warm, festive atmosphere.

A safari adventure is one of the most thrilling and memorable experiences you can have, especially in a place as rich in wildlife as the Kruger National Park, conveniently located adjacent to Ngwenya Lodge. The park offers visitors a front-row seat to some of Africa’s most iconic animals in their natural habitat. However, to ensure that your wildlife encounter is respectful and safe for both you and the animals, it’s essential to follow proper safari etiquette. Here are some key do’s and don’ts to keep in mind during your visit

Ngwenya Lodge is known for its spectacular wildlife experiences, and one of the highlights of any stay is the chance to visit the Resort’s well-placed game-viewing hides. These hides provide guests with an intimate, uninterrupted view of the wildlife along the Crocodile River, which borders the iconic Kruger National Park. Each hide offers a unique vantage point, making it easy to spot some of South Africa’s most beloved animals in their natural habitat. Let’s take a closer look at the different hides available at Ngwenya Lodge and what you can expect from each one.
