"Amazing getaway lodge for couples and families "

"We had a very large canvas tent with multiple rooms and a thatched roof. The bed was very comfortable and netted to keep out flying critters.The front balcony overlooked a savanna type landscape where animal viewing is certainly possible, though we only saw them on our game drive. Very tasty buffet options were provided at dinner and breakfast. There are two game drives per day, with the morning drive shortly after sunrise.The game drive was surprisingly eventful as we saw 6 young lions behaving...

"Annoying part, arrived there late and I was told need a code to enter. Had to call reservations asking for code. Arrived and then was told to still pay, but everything was paid in full. For a property with such high standard, they can spend some money on proper pillows and bedding. Shower heads and shower needs proper cleaning. Sad to see so much littering by the people, and no one picks it up. Overall, property was really nice, peaceful. Game drive was boring. Spa was amazing. "

"Lovely smaller hotel away from the hustle and bustle of the Zebula lodge but right inside the reserve with great rooms and dining."

"Really a lovely reserve, would definitely recommend. Good food too. "

"It was very good staff was friendly and the place is very clean "
