A traditional Zulu \\Umuzi\\" or homestead, divided into the home of the Zulu's and hotel rooms. A unique resort built on the set of the movies, Shaka Zulu and John Ross. Feel the pulsating rhythm of mysterious and magical Africa as you re-live the excitement and romance of the days of Shaka, King of the Zulus, in this authentic re-creation of the Great Kraal overlooking the Phobane Lake. Experience the sight of assegaai-wielding warriors, share the fascinating secrets of the Sangomas and witness traditional customs such as tribal dancing, spear making and the beer-drinking ceremonies. Stay in first-class accommodation in traditional beehive huts, with all mod-cons such as en-suite bathrooms. Protea Hotel Shakaland is more than just a tourist attraction - it is an enriching experience affording a better understanding of the Zulu nation, its people and their intriguing customs. The Kwabonamanzi restaurant and U Kamba Bar offers tasty meals and spectacular views of the surrounding hills. An audio-visual room is available in the evenings should guests wish to watch television instead of the Zulu cultural experience or tribal dancing. A swimming pool is situated next to the restaurant, ideal for cooling off on those balmy tropical days.
