Heart Of Dulini

A welcoming ambience of laid back luxury creates a place of conversation and laughter, while the extensive library of books accommodates those more inclined to quieter contemplation.
Intimate Private Suites
Six exquisite thatched suites grace the banks of the riverbed. The spacious accommodation with private plunge pools and interiors that epitomise romance, with canopies of mosquito nets and beautiful bathrooms. Each suite offers a, private view of the riverbed, seamlessly integrating the grandeur of nature and elegance of décor.
Viewing Deck
The traffic of game frequenting the trails through and beyond the camp and riverbed may be enjoyed from the cantilevered deck tented by a leafy Jackalberry. It is not uncommon to secretly witness the passage of an elusive leopard from this vantage point. The deck also offers an alternative venue for enjoying the rich fare at meal times.
Dining Sala
Traditionally known as “the boma”, this truly African dining venue boasts a ceiling of stars and a roaring fire. It is around the Boma fire that friendships are sealed and all African bush yarns are spun – grandiose tales of fearsome beasts and great escapes are always more memorable when shared around the camp fire.

Dulini Lodge Reviews
“We left Dulini feeling a sense of belonging and yearning to return. The experience is an indulgence of all your senses. We had a 5 star experience, from the gourmet food, luxurious rooms, idealistic location and outstanding caring and professional staff. The game viewing was spectacular. On all our game drives we experienced close encounters with a variety of game, including fascinating birdlife and insect species. Our ranger, Fred, was the most delightful, entertaining and incredibly knowledgeable and insightful guy.” -839nicola
“There are no words to express the unforgettable experience, a place where the heart meets the mind as one realizes what life is about. We can not express our gratitude to Dulini, where every staff member behaves like the owner, taking a personal interest in your well being and relaxation.” -DRUMMOND201507
“Our stay at this amazing lodge cannot be described in words, you have to experience this to understand. From the second you step onto the grounds you are made to feel as though you are the only people that exist despite there being other guests present. The owners / hosts are wonderful people whose passion for what they provide is shown in every aspect of the lodge.” -Dodna57
