Spanning four hectares, Gohori Resort boasts 15 spacious family rooms equipped with high-tech amenities, free Wi-Fi, DStv, and secure parking. Expansion plans are underway to add 35 more rooms and a 300-seat conference facility. The resort also features an 80-seat conference room, lush gardens, and scenic walking paths.
Guests can explore nearby historical and cultural sites, including:
- Mutoko Monuments – A glimpse into Zimbabwe’s rich history.

Wildlife encounters are part of the experience, with monkeys frolicking around the resort. The natural setting, complemented by indigenous flora, offers a serene retreat.
Over 80% of the resort’s employees hail from the local community, benefiting from employment opportunities and educational support. Farmers also gain a stable market for their produce.
Founder Bernard Kasekete envisions Mutoko as a major tourism and economic hub, inspired by President Mnangagwa’s Nyika inovakwa nevene vayo mantra. Gohori Resort represents the beginning of this transformation, offering guests an unforgettable stay while uplifting the local community.
Gohori Resort isn’t just a getaway—it’s a beacon of hope, growth, and opportunity in rural Zimbabwe.
