Kamunjila Lodge

Kamunjila Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"We had the pleasure of staying at Kamunjila lodge for two separate nights during our time in Zambia and we absolutely loved our time here. The lodge felt like a home away from home and the friendly staff (Stanley and Conti in particular) really went out of their way to welcome us and make us feel comfortable. The rooms are spotless and the lodge’s common space is a quiet oasis. Thank you for hosting us and we would love to return if we ever visit Zambia again!:)"
