The Deck, which overlooks the swimming pool with serene river views beyond, is an idyllic spot for al fresco dining.

KIDS DINING ROOM

The Kids Dining Room is situated adjacent to the main dining room. This bright and airy facility is equipped with high chairs, a communal dining table, separate fridge and a microwave – all of which creates a cozy and inter-active environment in which kids can enjoy a meal under your supervision.

Basil’s (named after Umngazi’s original owner) overlooks the riverfront and is a central buzz point for the hotel.

Quench your thirst with a signature cocktail or ice-cold beer on the deck, and you’ll fully appreciate the allure of this sociable and idyllic location.
