To enjoy the Zulu experience, one must spend at least a fortnight in Zululand. The sheer wealth of natural beauty – the lush green forests, rolling hills, lagoons, mangroves and the Drakensberg Mountains shimmering at a distance - gives Zululand its unmatched beauty and serenity. The historical quarters reeking of Anglo-Zulu war memories, and the tribal African villages, also add to the charm of Zululand.

A range of comfortable accommodations can be found in Zululand’s major towns, the provincial game reserves and along the coastline. Game lodges are wonderful, especially if you like living near a lot of green and up for jungle sounds at night. The setting is beautiful and exciting, and lovely if you are visiting with friends. Game lodges are also fantastic for honeymoons.

Seashore cottages are perfect if you like the beach close by and have tanning and water sports on your mind. Wonderful seafood restaurants populate the beach areas, including bars and cafes. When you are not swimming, snorkeling or enjoying scuba diving, eateries are the next best thing to spend time with your family or make new friends.

Zulu homes, styled like beehive huts reminiscent of those found in the tribal villages only more sprawling and fitted with amenities for the international traveler, are great to spend your Zulu holidays in. You will also come across floating lake chalets. The experience of spending your holidays in them is both unique and memorable.

For a little variety, there is a range of stylish accommodations to choose from Durban city. Luxury resorts, private villas and cottages, including several budget lodgings, B&B inns, etc, can be found in Durban.
