Ezulwini Valley Accommodation

Ezulwini Valley in Swaziland is the hub of Swazi crafts and culture. Rich in heritage, and ruled by King Mswati III who is a great source of Swaziland national pride. Swaziland boasts one of the few remaining monarchies in Africa. King Mswati III rules the Swazi kingdom with the Queen Mother or Ndlovukazi, and lives in a grand residence in the Ezulwini Valley of Swaziland - which in Zulu means "heavenly".

Lying between Mbabane and Manzini, Ezulwini Valley is surrounded on all four sides by magnificent mountains, making this north-western corner of Swaziland truly a little piece of Heaven. Ezulwini Valley is where Swaziland tourism began, and offers a wealth of attractions and Swazi accommodation, which includes Swaziland Self Catering accommodation, Swaziland Bed & Breakfast accommodation and Swaziland Tented accommodation - and because Swaziland's Ezulwini Valley is an absolute must for every visitor to Swaziland, it's no wonder that Ezulwini Valley has been chosen by many major Swaziland Hotels as the place to build hotels, casinos and restaurants.

For fine dining, make sure you try the elegant, sophisticated ambience of the Lihawu Restaurant at the Swaziland Royal Villas. Not just renowned for outstanding food, the Lihawu Restaurant keeps the best wine cellar in the country. Ezulwini Valley also boasts hot springs, craft markets, art galleries, riding stables, a Swaziland nature reserve and cultural village, while golfers can enjoy the 18-hole Royal Swaziland Championship Golf Course.

Although there's a wide variety of Swaziland accommodation on offer in Ezulwini Valley - Game Lodges, Swaziland Guest House accommodation, Back-Packers and Hotels, if you're looking for Swaziland Self Catering accommodation, you'll find Buhleni Farm Chalets tucked away on a bushveld fruit farm just 5 minutes from the center of Ezulwini Valley.
