Description
Bumi Hills Overview
Bumi Hill lies high above the shore of Lake Kariba, the world’s largest manmade lake turned natural paradise. The eternal waters, palms trees and beaches might lead you to think that you on a remote Indian Ocean Island, but the incredible game viewing will soon remind you that you are in one of Africa’s safari hot spots; landlocked Zimbabwe. Expect to be blown away by the knowledge of the local guides when you venture out on game drives in the nearby Matusadona National Park, go on walks along the shores of the lake or boat safaris. Don’t miss out on the sunset cruises to get up close to hippos and elephants, while you’re enjoying some of the most beautiful sunsets in Africa.
Stylishly decorated with a lot of natural materials like wood, concrete and steel, complemented with modern design pieces and earthy colours, the rooms offer stunning views over the lake and the soft hills in the distance.

Cultural Excursions
The Bumi Hills Wildlife Area is bordered in the north west by the Chalala and Mola communities, which are home to the Tonga, a delightful and very spiritual people who have resided in this area and along the length of the Zambezi river for centuries. They have preserved ancient traditions and still live a largely subsistence lifestyle that is reliant on fishing, livestock and small scale farming. In the village of Chalala these customs have melted together with the inevitable infiltration of modern ways of life. However the luxuries of a permanent electricity and water supply to homes are still absent, leaving the communities still largely reliant on the surrounding environment for their livelihood.
