Home
Aquanzi lodge and Dive Centre is a 4 star establishment which offers luxury, self catering
accommodation to visitors in Johannesburg, Gauteng. Our unique location near bustling cosmopolitan
hubs such as Bryanston, Midrand, Rivonia, Northgate, Sandton, and Sunninghill as well as our close
proximity to Lanseria Airport, make our star rated establishment extremely convenient if you’re looking
for accommodation near the city of Johannesburg.
Aquanzi Lodge and Dive Centre’s 14 free stranding, thatched chalets and two (2) non-thatched, Executive
Suites are elegantly decorated with an African flair. The surrounding aloes, acacia trees, abundant bird
life and free roaming guinea fowl, further contribute to the restful atmosphere at Aquanzi.
A 16 x 9 m heated, salt water pool at 4 m deep, attracts divers in training from surrounding areas and
has become a favourite location amongst diving schools. If you’re not into diving though, 2 sparkling salt
water swimming pools invite you to a relaxing swim whilst the beach sand coaxes one into lazing under
the African sun for hours.
After a relaxing day, enjoy an African sunset with a sundowner in hand, on our breakfast room’s spacious
patio – drinking in the peace and tranquility at Aquanzi Lodge and Dive Centre.
We pride ourselves on providing meticulous personalized service and invite you to come and enjoy a
truly satisfying, 4 star stay!
