The lodge is connected by wooden walkways to the village, which is home to over 50 Zulu residents and forms part of a ‘living museum’. Dumazulu Village is the largest Zulu Village of its kind in the southern hemisphere and is the only tourist village to be opened by King Goodwill Zwelithini. The village features a main dining area, bar, curio shop and swimming pool, lapa and individuals are able to watch and learn about a variety of Zulu traditions including basket weaving and spear and shield making. 

In addition, the property features approximately 20 ha of land available for development, providing investors with the opportunity to develop a variety of structures including backpacker’s accommodation, campsites or exclusive tent accommodation.
