Gwango Heritage Resort

We were very disappointed when we arrived at temperature of almost 38deg C in the evening to the lodge that they had no fan in any room. Though other hotels we stayed during our Zimbabwe trip had AC particularly to sleep after hot day excursions. How can you list a hotel who do not even provide a fan, not even a pedestal fan for the night. The 2 rooms we booked for the family were a nightmare experience for all of us as none of us could sleep. We had a rat in one the rooms which made my daughters scare the whole night. There was no provision of water in the room, and had to be bought from the bar which closed at 9 pm. I will not recommend anyone to go near this lodge and recommend TRIP.com and other booking sites to delete this from their website

What a wonderful place to stay. The staff were super friendly and service excellence was shown at all times. Only remark I want to leave is that a kettle in the lodge would be nice.

I had the most amazing time at Gwango Heritage Resort! I stayed for a nights, and it was difficult to leave. The food was excellent (I am a vegetarian), I was treated like family, had great safaris; led by Fortune and Carlos. The reception staff could not have been better, and the manager made my stay exceptional. Thank you all so much! I cannot wait to come back!

Lovely hotel. We stayed in a family chalet: warm, quirky and with a balcony from which we could watch elephant and monkeys using the small watering hole. The main body of the hotel is nice and as advertised, with the roof top pool being visited by elephants whilst our children were in the pool - a unique experience (trunks dipping in from down below to sip the tasty water). The food was only average though - but that's not why you come...

We had a wonderful time at this resort. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. The accommodation was rustic and very clean.

Gwango Heritage Resort is located near the main gate of Hwange National Park and offers campsites as well as 30 cabins. You find a lobby, restaurant & bar (all three outside, and chilly in winter), and at the first floor a pool overlooking the elephant waterhole. There are family cabins with two double beds, and bush cabins with two single beds. The resort is accessible by road, however for the park you need a 4x4. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The latter is surprisingly tasty. Service is friendly. We had a modest, isolated bush cabin with 2 single-beds plus mosquito nets, desk & chair, and standing fan. Window can open and they have mosquito screens. No airco or heating, no tea facility. The in-room bathroom had washbasin, shower & toilet and provides little privacy. All was clean. Gwango Heritage Resort is a well-maintained safari lodge & camping, and we had an enjoyable stay. Recommended.
