What a place! Something you see very rarely! Xavier is one of the best guest person I ever met, he has done everything we wished for. Location, Animals, his dogs, everything was een experience never to forget

We had a wonderfull stay. We did get a upgrade in room and may sleep in the Presidential Suite. Xavier welcomed us in a wonderful and friendly way, he waited by his gate. Please make sure you rent a SUV, you won't regret it. After a tour through the Lodge, Xavier made us a very delicious and tastefull diner. He is a real good chef. We had this diner in his garden close to all the animals! Just lovely! Also the breakfast in the morning was great, with homemade bread. We enjoyed our stay! The Lodge has all needed facilities you need. When you are near Hoedspruit this is the Lodge to be!

Breakfast was great at Hippomoon. We couldn’t have asked for more attentive service from Xavier. We stayed in the main house (not the lodges) which was huge with fantastic decor. The terrace, pool & fire pit with outlook onto feeding station for the wild animals eg Zebra & antelopes was spectacular. We opted for the additional charge to have dinner on the terrace at night. The food was excellent. Xavier is the most attentive host we have ever stayed with going way beyond what you would normally expect. He took the time to show us around his estate and share his animals with us. Memorable encounter with his giraffe. Expert at helping plan activities to do during our stay.

Xavier was the most impressive host imaginable. It was an unforgettable stay, thanks to his hospitality and culinary skills. We had the fortune of seeing two baby giraffes on his reserve and Xavier took us around in the morning on a safari. The rooms are an eclectic mix of art and beautifully interior design and the views in the morning out to the mountains are spectacular. Thank you for our stay it will forever be in our memories.

We enjoyed an outstanding experience at the lodge. The premium accommodation and surrounding wildlife were impressive, but what really stood out was the exceptional hospitality of the host, who cooked delicious dinners, showed us around his land and animals (we could touch a giraffe!!) and provided valuable advice for our trip! Thx Xavier!

The host was very friendly, from the get go he was very welcoming.The facilities are well decorated and very comfortable. He went the extra mile to make us feel like we were at home. Breakfast and dinner was exceptional and the fact that there were animals made it extra special.

Very original place with a good vibe! Xavier (the owner) will make your stay special. You won’t be bored with him as he has plenty to offer and will perfectly organise your stay in the area. He has a lot of animals in the surroundings. Definitely place for dog lovers (he has plenty of them). Moreover, he cooks delicious meals himself! Worth to mention that we’ve got upgraded :)

Xavier is a great host of his more then beautiful Lodge and land. We got an upgrade to the most nicest lodge with own swimming pool and bubble bath. Then he showed us giraffe, zebra and more other animals. In the evening we’ve got a really cosy and nice diner at the host his place where we felt more then welcome. Not to forget in the morning the nicest breakfast we’ve had in South Africa. We are more then greatful for this wonderful experience, thank you Xavier!
