Pizza night was loads of fun yesterday 🌞
Our renovations are almost complete
& the “sun is shining, weather is sweet!”

Our pizzas are something special!

Molweni All 🪄 we are sooo close to finishing this leg of renovations.
Soon, we will have a new kitchen, upgraded indoor & outdoor chill area AND a few more exciting additions.

We are especially grateful to the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC), whose support has made these renovations possible and has been a true lifeline for the Lodge during an incredibly difficult period for tourism.
Their support helps ensure that Bulungula Lodge can remain 100% community-owned and run, with all profits continuing to be reinvested back into our community.

We are so grateful to our guests & all who make up the Bulungula Family 🌞🌊

At Bulungula eco-lodge we boast some beautiful, simple accommodations for all.
We love our traditional rondavels but these cabins are tucked between ancient milkwoods, the mighty ocean & held together with the Bulungula feeling we all love.

If you enjoy feeling like you’re living in a tree house, Cabin 4 is for you! Sleeps 2 -

& you can opt to climb the tree to & from your front door as a guest recently shared.

Being a guest at Bulungula lodge means you get to immerse yourself in Xhosa culture. We encourage you to learn the basics of the isiXhosa language, make notes & take initiative to chat to the managers & crew onsite. You’ll be surprised at how trying can bring laughter, joy & expand our knowledge of the land because language holds so many codes of wisdom!
Before words we communicate with our bodies, smiles & eyes, come engage with authenticity at Bulungula lodge!
