SELF-CATERING ZAMBEZI RIVER STAYS

Here, in our little piece of paradise, we invite our guests to slow down with us, settle in and experience a different side to Namibia’s beauty - one shaped by fresh, flowing waters, open skies, abundance in fauna and flora and our warm hospitality.

Situated just 30km outside the capital of the Zambezi Region, Katima Mulilo, our lodge offers serene accommodation for travellers who want more than a simple overnight stop. Whether you are visiting us for a peaceful getaway, a fishing adventure, or as part of a longer journey through the region, we want your stay to feel easy, memorable and connected to the beauty which this region has to offer.

Our cosy, open-plan self-catering chalets have been designed to allow our guests to feel one within the natural beauty of our bushveld surroundings. Each chalet is approximately 36sqm in size and offers a restful, practical space where you can unwind after a day’s adventures or a long trip.

Each chalet includes two single beds, with the option to add an additional single bed if needed. For your convenience, the chalets also include:

  • Air conditioning
  • Non-smoking
  • River view
  • Shower only
  • Towels
  • Coffee / tea facilities
  • Kitchen supplies
  • Kitchenette
  • Refrigerator
  • Stove
  • Braai / Barbeque facilities
  • Outdoor furniture
  • Patio

The deck is one of our favourite features. It gives you a private place to sit back, enjoy the view and take in the atmosphere of the Zambezi.

The cabins are serviced daily, so you can focus on relaxing, fishing, exploring and enjoying your time with us.

A stay at Muchenje River Lodge is about more than where you sleep … it’s about the experience.

Guests can enjoy our lodge facilities, including our restaurant, bar, riverfront lounge and dining area, shaded outdoor seating, free Wi-Fi connectivity in the main area, and the swimming pool overlooking the river. 

Muchenje River Lodge is located in an area which is well situated as a convenient base for exploring the wider Zambezi Region.

You can spend your days fishing on the Zambezi River, enjoying a sunset boat cruise, bird watching, relaxing by the pool or simply taking in the river views. For guests wanting to explore further, day trip options include Victoria Falls (216km), Chobe National Park (128km), Ngonya Falls (162km) and local cultural village experiences. Be sure to have your passports available!

This is what makes the region so special. You can fill your days with adventure, or you can slow everything down and let the river set the pace.

At Muchenje River Lodge, our chalets offer comfort, simplicity and a true sense of place. They are designed for couples, families, friends, anglers and travellers who want to experience the Zambezi Region of Namibia in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

Come for the adventure. Stay for relaxation. Leave with memories that will last a life-time.
