Hawane Resort

eSwatini (Swaziland)


Framed by the Malolotja peaks, these quirky chalets are a blend of traditional Swazi materials (wattle and grass) and glass, with ethnic African interiors. Backpackers are stabled in a converted barn. The resort restaurant serves African cuisine (dinner buffet E190). It’s a convenient base for visiting Malolotja Nature Reserve, though some visitors say it's overpriced and service is lackadaisical.

Horse riding is available on the premises (E150 per hour), as are spa treatments (E220 to E320). Use of the wi-fi costs E20 per stay. It’s about 5km up the Piggs Peak road from the junction of the MR1 and MR3, and 1.5km off the main road.
