EDEN LODGE VUMBA BAGS TOP SERVICE AWARD

Eden Lodge Vumba, a tranquil retreat amidst the breathtaking Vumba Mountains, has garnered national recognition, clinching the prestigious gold award in the Outstanding Service Excellence Category at the recent Zimbabwe CEO’s Network Awards. This esteemed accolade not only celebrates Eden Lodge’s commitment to exceptional hospitality but also serves as a vote of confidence in the tourism potential of the Eastern Highlands region.

Eden Lodge Vumba has long been a sanctuary for those seeking respite from urban life. With its 16 en-suite rooms, each featuring a cozy Jetmaster fireplace and DStv, the lodge offers comfort and warmth in every season. Guests can choose from a range of accommodations, including standard double rooms, twin rooms, spacious two-bedroom family lodges, and luxurious honeymoon suites, with bunk beds available for children on request.

The lodge’s à la carte restaurant tantalizes palates with delicious local and continental dishes, while the charming “Fog and Crog” lounge bar, complete with its own inviting fireplace, provides the perfect spot to unwind, especially on chilly Vumba evenings. Families are well catered for with a children’s jungle gym and secure parking.

The recent award underscores Eden Lodge’s dedication to providing a world-class guest experience. Visitors consistently praise the lodge for its peaceful atmosphere, the professionalism and friendliness of its staff, and the inviting ambiance of its public areas. This commitment to service excellence is proving to be a game-changer for the Eastern Highlands, a region famed for its misty forests, majestic mountains, and natural beauty.

Eden Lodge’s achievement is particularly timely as Manicaland province prepares to host a global audience for the Sanganai/Hlanganani/Kumbanayi Tourism and Travel Expo, scheduled for September 10-12, 2025, in Mutare. This premier event, Zimbabwe’s largest travel showcase, aims to attract international buyers, investors, and media to experience the country’s diverse tourism offerings firsthand.

The spotlight will be firmly on Manicaland’s capacity to deliver world-class service, and Eden Lodge’s award-winning status provides a compelling narrative that the province is indeed ready.
