Company information

I manage Ammazulu first hand. Communicating with my guests is very important. As I grew up in the area and I love our local surroundings and I am able to give my guest suggestions on what to do in the area. I have been in the industry for 26 years and I take pride in every that I do. My mission in life is to make people feel comfortable around me and this way my guests feel welcome and keep returning.

Property information

Ammazulu is the final piece of Peter Amm's childhood dream. He once dreamt of a special place where he could showcase his most priced collection and now Ammazulu can boast with all his glory. The building and its interior is one of a kind and is a destination on its own.
