Very good scuba diving experience, all staff from divemasters to skippers and support-staff were extremely proactive, professional and friendly. We were impressed with this! Lodges were alright for the price, missed internet-access a bit though. Restaurant very good with a varied menu.

My husband (scuba diver) and myself (non-diver) stayed at Sodwana Bay Lodge when we visited KwaZuluNatal in October 2012 and my husband wanted to scuba there. The Lodge is on the coast of South Africa just south of Mozambique. We bought a very affordable 5-day package that included lodging, food, and diving for my husband. Our private chalet was rustic...

Stayed 3 nights. The room (a one roomed cabin) I stayed in was well appointed and comfortable, with a TV, but the walls are (I guess traditional) stick construction and give no sound proofing whatsoever, so you could easily hear what was going on with the neighbours. Dining room had limited menu but what they had was very good (... More

Excellent location, great scenery.the dive club was excellent, great staff, friendly and very helpful....we enjoyed 6 dives each my wife and I, and will definitively do that again;) Restaurant has a limited menu, especially on the seafood side..

Stayed for two nights and would like to have stayed a while longer. Accomodation was good and the food in the resaurant was good quality and varied. Staff at reception were very helpfull and efficient. My youngest son arranged scuba diving through the on-site diving centre and all trips were on time and well organised. Some lovely walks within the... More

The rooms are only average. When there is wind outside, there is also wind inside the rooms. When we arrived, there was no electricity and while... More

I really enjoyed my time at Sodwana Bay. The huts are basic but good, the bed are comfy and everthing is very clean. Each hut has it's own veranda so nice to sit outside and listen to the birds. Diving was great too! Bradley was a great dive instructor and after 5 dives I succeeded for my PADI Advanced. Nice!... More

We booked Sodwana Bay lodge for the 'Shootout special' which was good value for money. My only gripe is that the dates for the shootout were 3-6 Oct and the special was for 4-7, so we only got two dives in before the photos had to be submitted for the competition and we missed the whole registraton/orientation evening. The bathroom... More

Between Ben all the other people at SBL, this was one of our best dive trips. Perfect conditions & excellent sightings underwater thanks to eagle-eyed DM Isaac. The service was always friendly and effecient. As a group of regular divers, the 5 of us had a superb time. The accommodation in the family unit overlooking the dam felt like 5*.... More
