Hawane Resort in Swaziland This is where we stayed in Swaziland. It is only 5Km across the South African border All bookings made were made by African DX Safari's, as well as the use of Antennae and Equipment. thanks Daniel (ZS6JR) The accommodation is ethic, and the food is fantastic. The people are just so friendly and really made our stay a memorable occasion I'll be going again, it was just great, and thanks to African DX Safari's for taking me there |
