Shiluvari Lakeside Lodge
Overview & Capacity
Shiluvari is the outlier of this list — a tranquil lakeside lodge on the Albasini Dam near Elim, well away from the Tzaneen cluster and closer to Louis Trichardt. On paper it's a tidy small-conference option: one meeting room to 100 cinema or banquet, real AV, on-site catering and a mix of rooms, a suite and chalets, ranked #1 of 2 in Louis Trichardt on TripAdvisor. The honest caveat is a real one: the official domain shiluvari.com now redirects to an unrelated dental website and the newest TripAdvisor review is from late 2024, so before B&W puts it in front of a client, phone +27 15 556 3406 and confirm it's still trading and who's answering. If it checks out, it's a peaceful, characterful regional base — just do the call first.
B&W Production Notes
- Yes for up to ~100 pax — modest but properly equipped with AV and beds; regional, remote location
Lovely lakeside conference option on paper — but the website is dead, so call to confirm it's still open before you quote it.
