The lodge has an A1 position in terms of being in the reserve and close to Jesser Bay for day trips of paradise snorkelling and surfing etc. The hotel lodge chalets are beautifully positioned in the natural forest and they themselves are so clean and well set up. The aircon and fans make the stay so comfortable during the heat. We loved going up to the restaurant. Great food and drinks and service. All in all we had such a happy time and can’t fault it at all.

Sehr schöne Unterkunft, super Frühstück, ruhiges Umfeld. Aber sehr schade, dass es im Chalet kein WIFI gibt und keine Schirme/Liegemöglichkeiten am Strand sind.

We only visited the restaurant and as in the past it was great experience. The kids loved the mocktails and it is child friendly enough that they could pay the restaurant a visit without us being worried about their safety. We had pizza, chicken, burgers, nachos, fish and other dishes. Their chicken livers are fantastic!!! Keep it up and we will keep on going back. Update January 2023. Had the chicken livers last night. Oh boy, best livers I had in a very, very, very long time. Even better than the previous time. Cocktails were great. Another update, December 2023. Chicken livers still the best, but.... Why is the service levels going down the tube? Our waitress had a very bad attitude because she got some of the order wrong. Not our fault but her own and left a bad taste. Service was slow and the beer can be a lot colder. Some of the dishes are not living up to expectations anymore, oily, bland, unappetising comes to mind. We wanted to have chicken livers one last time but they were "out of stock". Then we get a call to say, all is good, come and have those livers, just to arrive and the livers were still not available. Everytime we visit the once great level of service has been dropping. We probably had our last vacation in Sodwana for the foreseable future and we will probably not recommend visitors to go and expect much at Mseni restaurant anymore.

Being unable to make a reservation, the maitredee went out of her way to help us. (Blond young lady) kept us up to date with the table we were seated at. Wonderfull experience. Milkshake and food to die for. Absolute beautiful view.

A great place to stay with direct access to the beach and a restaurant with sea view. Clean cottages blended into the indigenous coastal forest. Communication between booking. com and the lodge did not happen. Upon arrival, the lodge informed us that they have not received our payment from booking. com. We had booked a few weeks ahead. Also the rooms we booked were not available and we had to move after one night.

Wonderful experience Perfect Location, our cabin was perfect & modern nestled in the forest with all necessary requirements. Short walking distance from car park to cabin but nothing to sweat about. Staff are ever willing to assist. The restaurant boasts wonderful views of the ocean and the food was exceptional, well done to the restaurant chefs! All staff were kind and courteous as well.

Mseni Lodge Mseni beach lodge is perfectly situated. Live in the luch bush, but walking distance from the beach. The diving is always amazing at Sodwana, and being in hte reserve means not too busy. The lodge itself is beautifully clean every day and the restaurant food yummy.

Alles super und gerne wieder. Wir waren mit der Unterkunft sehr zufrieden. Sie liegt in einem Nationalpark und es ist entsprechend ruhig und nicht touristisch. Das zugehörige Restaurant war sehr gut und wir haben jeden Abend dort gegessen. Der eigene Strandzugang führt zu einem der schönsten Strände, die wir bisher gesehen haben. Komplett einsam und kaum frequentiert. Die Bungalows liegen mitten im Wald, sind sehr groß und man bekommt ab und an Besuch von den Affen.

A Mseni holiday delight We are repeat visitors to Mseni Lodge and yet again, the experience we had will ensure we return next year. The chalets are very comfortable and kept beautifully clean. The convenience of the restaurant with its stunning view over the forest to the sea is another attraction. All the staff are friendly and welcoming. In my experience, it offers the best lodge-style accommodation in Sodwana Bay.

A pleasant stay We enjoyed a short stay in one of the comfortable and well maintained lodges nestled in the sand and trees behind the main beach. Lovely location, though there are plenty of steps down to the beach so may not suit everyone. Restaurant has views over the ocean.

Mseni Beach is a hidden gem inside Sodwana national park! We had such a wonderful time at Mseni Beach. The chalets were clean and well appointed with lots of space The Resturant was exceptional. Breakfast orders were remembered on the daily and our evening meals were delicious. The walk to the beach was tranquil going through a forest and then down to the dunes and flat beach with the softest sand. Walking back is slightly more demanding as it is straight up the dunes and then to stairs going up. You have to be a little fit to get up them. Overall our stay was wonderful and relaxing with plenty do around the area.

An incredible place to stay in Sodwana Bay Mseni Beach Lodge was a wonderful place to escape for a couple of days with my fiance. The staff was friendly and super accomodating when we arrived late. They were kind enough to walk dinner all the way down to our room! The views (and private beach) are delightful, the restaurant food was very good at great value. My fiance and I look forward to coming back.

Prachtige plek, dichtbij het strand, fijne huisjes en geweldig eten! Prachtig strand waar je heerlijk en rustig kunt wandelen. Huisjes zijn heel schoon, mooi ingericht, en wij hadden een veranda en bbq. We sliepen met 5 personen en kregen daarom een extra matras, zodat we de slaapbank niet hoefden te gebruiken. Elke dag wordt er schoongemaakt, er is een zwembad en een heerlijk restaurant. En een waanzinnige sterrenhemel. We hebben in het restaurant uitstekend gegeten, super goede en vriendelijke bediening.

A taste of paradise... A fantastic setting with wonderful views and a fantastic restaurant in the middle of a wildlife park. How could things be any better. Walk the beaches and enjoy the stunning setting.... We stayed in the Beach view house and really enjoyed the view and set up. Four nice bedrooms. Two nice doubles with private baths for the adults and then two bedroom more suitable for the younger folks. Huge deck on the second floor with living pace, views and the full kitchen. A great place to visit with lots of nearby activities. Right on the beach so just find the convenient entrance to the stairs and down to the beach and stunning views.
