The head chef is brilliant and talented. His food was the highlight of our stay. Personnel were really very professional. The guide impressed us with his knowledge. My whole family is knowledgeable on the local fauna and flora and he we tested his knowledge. On some subjects we learnt from him.

Beautiful lodge with choice of different rooms on a small private game reserve. We opted for a luxury safari tent with private plunge pool. It was amazing! Beautifully furnished with private bathroom, comfortable king sized bed, well stocked mini bar and complimentary tea, coffee and water. The room rate included breakfast and dinner which were also amazing. Great choice of food that was delicious and well presented. An evening game drive and morning bush walk were also included and these were expertly led by knowledgeable guides. We saw so much wildlife with the highlight being a leopard cooling off next to a small pond. Staff were all so friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend this lodge and hope we will return again soon!

Absolutely in love with Phelwana! Definitely recommend and I hope to come back soon. The quality of the meals and rooms, the beauty of the animals walking around freely and the unbelievable attention to details of the staff made our first safari in family the most perfect experience. I thank each one of the staff members for making this holiday a dream for us.

Chose this place for the seclusion it offers. The tent was basically on the lake and far (but a walkable distance) from reception. So we were in our own little world but could opt for human interaction if we wanted to. Tent was clean, had an aircon, an outdoor shower, a little splash pool, an amazing view and we had visitors from all sorts of animals. It was just so delightful.

Exceptionally stunning place. The views are fantastic with nature's elegance on full view. The tents are beautiful with the luxury of a private pool. The game drives are a fun way to unwind and experience other levels of nature.
