Memorable stay. We sat at the deck having a drink in the evening and again for breakfast watching the rhinos and other wildlife at the watering hole. Fabulous and memorable. Great food. Great accomodation. Friendly staff and Owner. Highly recommended. One of those places I don't want too many people to discover!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Although it was not up to standard it was certainly not filthy. There were dirty tiles in the bathroom and dust on the window sills. The fridge was frozen up to the extend that I could not fit an ice brick in the freezer compartment. A larger and cleaner fridge was delivered after our complaint though.

The tv stopped working in the executive rooom after 3 hours being there. My wife had serious burns from the shower .. one minute its cold next its warm and the next moment scolding hot water. Had to request a refund as i felt that the room was not as advertised. Will not recommend the place. Was suppose to be n adventure which turned into a nightmare. Definitely not worth 4 stars

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Lovely stay but there was confusion about my booking they wanted to put me in a room with two single beds despite me paying for a double room with King-size bed. They sorted it out eventually but it made the interaction with the staff awkward as they were insisting we'll have to move rooms, eventually we did not have to. But otherwise a beautiful game lodge with friendly staff, great food and stunning scenery. The predator experience was wonderful and I highly recommend it to anyone
