    This place is a dream. We booked the deluxe tented suite and it did not disappoint. The outdoor shower, balcony, fireplace, bed, layout, everything was perfect. The game drives were amazing and we saw 4 out of the big 5 in 2 days!!! The massages were absolutely incredible. Thanks to Collen for looking after us and Mandela for the informative and entertaining game drives. Angelique and Maria at the Spa were amazing. The staff are amazing and make your stay very comfortable.

    Being a bit elderly, some steps to get into the game drive vehicles would have been helpful. We were fortunate tgat we were at the tpp of the hill butbour friends accomodation no,11 was at the bottom. Some warning of the steepness on the website might be appreciated.

    Everything was great our guide Mandela was very knowledgable and took us to amazing places to see the animals

    My room was far, and when i call to ask for a golf car the answer was its not for guests just for the luggage, the person answerd me was rude, The water pressure in the bathroom was a little bit low Next time I will book a trip without an accommodation.

    The Safari trip was nice , not that much animals to see, if you book a trip make sure to your guide is Simba 🫶🫶 Also i would like to thanks for the free room upgrade ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I was a bit pricy considering everything need to bay for but was a good experience.

    I had one night in the suite for our honey moon which was cool. I had a safari trip in the afternoon and saw 3 out of the big 5 animals. The next day I went on the horse ride safari both were extra charge which I enjoyed alot. The foods were good ,and staff were helpful.

    It was raining before going to the game drive and we couldn’t see more animals and the hotel shouldn’t have us to go on drive while they know that animals normally hide because of rain

    The tent was just in front of the forest where you can see Impalas and elephants and there is outdoor shower

    Nothing at all.

    The room was amazing and the views were spectacular. We went for the game drive and was able to spot 4 of the big five. The staff were all so warm, friendly and welcoming, which probably indicates how valued they feel as employees of the reserve. Highly recommend this!

    This was our first stay on a game reserve and the 'tent' we stayed in was vast, luxurious and opulent. From the wood burner to the rain showers and stone basins, the large windows overlooking the reserve it was perfect. We went on two game drives, hosted by Kai who is a font of knowledge. We saw a range of wildlife, elephants, rhinos, lions, cheetahs, impalas, hippos to name but a few. Not only did Kai educate us with facts and figures about the animals on the reserve, he also served a great G&T sun downer and unforgettable hot chocolate and Amarillo combo on the early morning drive.

    The spa seemed badly run. The pool felt oily and there was a film on the pool edges.when we asked if we could use the showers and sauna we were told that the shower facilities were only for guests who had treatments and we needed to go into the adjacent gym building for a shower. The saunas were turned off and apparently needed to be booked. The staff were ready clearing up at 4.30 preparing to close at 5 pm. Most people who want to use the spa would like to do so after a game drive when arriving back at the lodge at 6pm.

    The location was perfect in near driving distance to George airport and several golf course. This is Important for people who are staying longer and don’t just want to go on game drives. Beautiful setting overlooking the stunning landscape. Food was very good and reasonably.Staff was very friendly
