Inspired by its breathtaking natural surroundings, Bumi Hills blends contemporary elegance with authentic Tongan heritage. Warm, wooden accents and earthy textures create a harmonious atmosphere throughout the lodge, where nature and design coexist effortlessly. At its heart lies a graceful viewing desk overlooking Lake Kariba's wildlife-rich shores, alongside a canvas-draped bar and open-air dining area where every meal comes with a view.
