Chaminuka Lodge
40 mins north of Lusaka
Chaminuka Lodge comprises 30
luxury suites and also houses their huge
private collection of African contemporary
paintings and sculpture as well as
traditional artifacts some one thousand
pieces acquired from all over Africa over
a period of 50 years. The collection spreads
throughout the main house, the guest suites
and the gardens and highlights the African
culture and way of life over the centuries.
But
above all Chaminuka is a microcosm of
todays Zambia, a mixture from all the
tribes with many kids of all ages, and
churches and schools and its own soccer team
that competes with those of the farms in the
area. Its people breathe life into Chaminuka
and make it a successful all-Zambian self
sustaining enterprise that is the livelihood
of the 130 families who live on the estate
and the financial focus of the many villages
that surround it,
Today this luxurious intimate Lodge welcomes
discerning travelers from around the world,
who seek excellence and style and an
extraordinary chance to commune with the
Real Africa: the Old Africa in all its
magnificence and the New Africa,
self-confident, self-reliant and taking
charge of its own destiny.
Thirty separate suites, each with en-suite
bathrooms and air conditioning elegantly
decorated in a fusion of contemporary and
traditional African themes.
Several
'Insakas' village style lounge areas
where guests can relax in private,
enjoying the glorious panoramic views
across Chaminuka's African Eden which
melts into the wilderness beyond. (Your
sundowners will taste best at the Lupili
Insaka and Deck, overlooking Lake Chitoka,
from where you can watch some of
the most glorious sunsets of Africa.)
