    Breakfast was great but mostly the owners and manager are just super nice and friendly.

    Very good rooms, just 15 minutes inland after the Namaacha border. Hosts are very friendly and helpful. Livivane sits next to a health clinic. Part of the revenue of the guest house goes to the clinic. It is spacious and luxurious. And the beds...

Company information

Kudvumisa Foundation is an NGO which has provided access to affordable health care in the Lubombo region of Eswatini (Swaziland) since 2008. Serving a marginalized, isolated and impoverished population, the Foundation has brought compassionate and quality health care to the most under served communities. The health outreach began as a community based service which continues to this day in addition to the Kudvumisa Clinic which now serves as the primary health care center for our communities. We continue to search for sustainability as Kudvumisa Foundation is not supported by local government.

Property information

Livivane Guest House is a part of Kudvumisa Foundation's sustainability plan for the nearby community health clinic and mobile health outreach. Convenient between South Africa and Mozambique this is a perfect place to overnight while traveling or simply relaxing for a few days while visiting the local game parks and reserves. Quiet with no distractions.
