Kosi Bay Lodge

Kosi Bay Lodge is situated near Lake Nhlange, the largest of the lakes in the area, catering to guests seeking an immersive experience in the pristine natural environment. The lodge features Nhlange Pub with scenic views for enjoying sundowners, along with the cozy Umdoni Restaurant and Bar overlooking the pool and sun deck, offering cuisine with local flavors.

Accommodation options include two, four, and six-bedded rustic lodges, constructed with thatched roofs, treated poles, wooden floors on stilts, and reed walls in a traditional Tonga and Zulu style. The lodgings are comfortably appointed, though rustic rather than luxurious, with the setting and range of activities making a stay worthwhile. Both full board and self-catering options are available, and all chalets have fully equipped kitchens with private barbecues and access to boma areas.

The lodge emphasizes comfort, informal service, and attentive staff who encourage guests to explore the unique environment and assist with information and arranging outings. A variety of activities and excursions are offered, allowing visitors to take full advantage of the available resources. Fishing is a popular pursuit, with various species such as kingfish, queenfish, stumpnose, shad, grunter, mullet, and garrick found in the region's waters.

Nearby attractions include the Ndumo Game Reserve, home to rhinos, giraffes, warthogs, zebras, kudus, nyalas, impalas, and over 400 bird species. Day tours to Black Rock, Lala Neck, and Bhanga Nek, where Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife operates a 30-year-old turtle research facility, are also available within easy reach. The use of 4x4 vehicles is recommended for exploring the area.
