Pongola Hotel & Travel Guide\n

Pongola has no Travelocity hotels itself. However, we offer 2 places to rest that are an easy drive away.

The nearest Travelocity-listed hotel is the Amakhosi Safari Lodge, South Africa, which is located 15 miles (25 kilometers) from the middle of Pongola. That said, have a look at the White Elephant Safari Lodge, located in South Africa, which is 11 miles (18 kilometers) from the heart of the city.

11 miles (18 kilometers) from the town center of Pongola, you will come across the Pakamisa Private Game Reserve. Alternatively, the Shayamoya is approximately 9 miles (15 kilometers) away. Two other alternatives worth looking into include the Kastelein Guesthouse and the Mkuze Falls Game Lodge.

Positioned 55 miles (91 kilometers) to the east of Pongola is Sodwana Bay, which is where visitors can find various Travelocity-listed hotels and apartments. Travelocity-registered hotels here are the Jesserpoint No 7 and Coral Divers.

For those who choose to fly, Matsapha International Airport is a logical gateway for Pongola. Just a cab ride away is Madala Lodge.
