I spent a weekend exploring the 3 Best Resorts in Nyanga: Worth it?

I spent the weekend in the stunning landscapes of Nyanga (Eastern Highlands, Zimbabwe) exploring the top 3 resorts that promise dramatically different experiences and I couldn’t believe what I found! From old-school mountain country charm to cutting-edge luxury villas, each resort surprised me in its own way.

Troutbeck Resort: Nestled high up in the mountains (about 2,200 m) overlooking a trout-filled lake and a nine-hole golf course, this resort blends country-club comfort, log fires, hiking, fishing and traditional charm.

Rupurara Valley Lodge: A freshly-refurbished luxury lodge in the Rupurara Valley, reopened in 2024 under the management of Cresta Hotels, offering high-end suites set in lush bush, excellent views, serenity and premium service.

Mountain Lakes Resort & Spa: A next-generation resort of luxury villas with private plunge pools, lake and forest views, built with wellness, nature and community in mind — a strong contender for Zimbabwe’s most modern high-end escape.
