RECEPTION HALL

Lalapanzi Palm Island has seating under the open African sky at the waters’ edge. Accessed via a picturesque wooden bridge, the island has a west-facing thatched gazebo and a grove of Acacia trees with rustic wooden benches where you can exchange your vows.

Our romantic Viewing Deck is ideal for intimate receptions of up to 40 guests. Perched on stilts above the lily-filled Lalapanzi Dam, it features wooden floors and wrap-around views to make a breath-taking setting.

The elegant Lalapanzi Restaurant has an outdoor bar next to a fire pit, as well as the option of extending tables into the gardens under a massive spreading tree.

Glass doors along the sides of the majestic Ndlovu Hall open out to the unique sand forest surrounds. The vaulted thatched roof and hanging lantern chandeliers create an airy space where up to 350 guests can dine and dance.
