It is built around a semi-evergreen wild mango tree and thatched in the traditional style offering panoramic views over the park and river. There are easy access points into the Park and the lodge is only a 45 minute drive from Mfuwe airport.
The Lodge offers 8 spacious chalets, with private bathrooms and stunning views from each verandah, and 2 luxury chalets with additional up-stairs viewing deck. In the centre of the Lodge is a spacious bar and dining area with a large deck. Adjacent to the bar is a small pool and the only natural hot spring tub in the Luangwa valley. The unique hot spring tub owes its existence to the fact that Kafunta River Lodge was built on top of a natural hot spring offering a constant temperature of 38 degrees.
