Maguga Dam Lodge

Top choice in eSwatini (Swaziland)


Scenically positioned on the southern shore of Maguga Dam, this laid-back venture is blessed with commanding views of the dam and surrounding hills. It comprises two well-equipped camping grounds, a clutch of spacious and light-filled rondavels and an excellent restaurant (mains E65 to E85) with a deck overlooking the dam.

There is rock art near the hotel, though the art is faint in comparison to the nearby Nsangwini Rock Art. Various activities are on offer, including fishing (E120 with own fishing equipment), cultural tours (E120 per person), hiking (from E120 per person) and boat cruises (adult/child per hour E170/80). If the activities all seem a bit daunting, pay a visit to the on-site spa offering a variety of massages (E170 to E400).
