Mivumo
River Lodge stands high on the banks of the
slow, brown Rufiji River, with glorious views down to
the plunging torrents of Stiegler's Gorge and offers
just twelve luxurious rooms, each of which is housed
in a timbered chalet with private viewing deck and plunge
pool.
Traditionally
thatched, with high vaulted ceilings and picture windows,
each room features an engaging mix of classic safari
antiques and ultra-modern leather and rattan styled
furniture. Softly lit and breeze-cooled, the lodge offers
the ultimate escape to one of the world's last undiscovered
wilderness frontiers.
Mivumo
River Lodge overlooks the Rufiji River, the spacious
central dining room, lounge, library and bar each have
their own spacious timber and thatched chalets, which
are interconnected by broad wooden walkways offering
excellent views of the hippos and elephants of the riverbank.
High
on the river bank is a spectacular ‘infinity'
pool and sundeck; also an exclusive aromatherapy spa,
where a wide range of entirely natural massages, scrubs
and body wraps are offered. Vast, pristine and largely
undiscovered, the spectacular Selous Game Reserve is
a World Heritage Site and the largest expanse of game
reserve in Africa.
Covering
55,000 square kilometers of rolling savannah, lakes,
rivers and deltas, it is four times the size of the
Serengeti and larger than the entire nation of Switzerland.
Home to the largest concentrations of elephants in the
world, this unique wildlife arena also boasts some of
the most exclusive and pioneering boating safaris that
Africa has to offer.
