We had an amazing stay at Luxury Tented Village @ Urban Glamping in St Lucia. The tent was beautiful, spacious and truly luxurious – such a unique experience! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. It’s a great place for both young and old, very relaxed and comfortable. Breakfast was a real highlight: excellent quality with healthy options, which we really appreciated. So nice to start the day like that! The location is perfect, with plenty of restaurants within walking distance. We also booked several activities through the accommodation, which was very convenient and well organized. Overall, I would highly recommend staying here to anyone visiting St Lucia. We would definitely come back!

Location was sublime with views over the Jozini Dam and bushveld. The game drive was a highlight with our knowledgeable guide and we took some amazing photographs and enjoyed some complimentary snacks down at the water’s edge. Nothing was too much trouble, the staff were amazing and the food and the presentation was amongst the best I have ever had. With a comfortable bed, a good night sleep, amazing location, fantastic staff and of course the game drive to round it all off. Quality! A 5 star experience!

We did not eat there we booked at the self-catering chalets. We would have loved to have breakfast but find R185 pp is a bit expensive. We did have a drink at the bar witch we loved as the bar lady was on the ball and so help full and friendly and to top it off, she brought us a bowl of popcorn, what a nice gesture. The property is like a little place in heaven rest for the soul. Will definitely be back, and the birding is fantastic.

I don’t usually post reviews, but Kosi Bay Lodge absolutely deserves 5 stars! The place is clean, well-maintained, and the food is not only reasonably priced but also deliciously prepared. The owners are incredibly hands-on, warm, and accommodating. Their genuine care and value for their guests truly set them apart—something I’ve found lacking in many other places I’ve visited. Oh, and the R&R slushes? A must-try!

it was great to see all the animals, but the pricing of things simple things, did not suit the local SA pockets, but accommodated more so for foreigners, which is understandable as there were plenty of foreigners, which was nice to meet. For SA, cater for yourself, to make the holiday more enjoyable. Foreigners it is a wonderful place to experience variety of SA foods, that suit your pocket

My stay was just right for my budget and family. We enjoyed a self-catering unit which was well equipped. The timing was good as the other holiday makers had not yet arrived making our stay feel exclusive and private.

Sodwana Bay is a beautiful beach with amazing wildlife.

Sodwana Bay is a beautiful beach with amazing wildlife. I am very disappointed that Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife and iSimangaliso Wetland Park are abusing nature for financial gain. It is a case of taking lots of money at the entrance gates and not putting it back into the maintenance and upgrading of facilities. Entrance fees, vehicle fees, conservation fees, overnight fees to Ezemvelo and iSimangaliso, and this excludes your actual accommodation costs to the place where you stay. Shocking! What is also happening with the conservation of such a precious place? Humans cannot just keep taking, without putting back. It is the rape of nature!

Mkuze is the best place to stay if you want to visit the Mkuze Game Reserve. We saw plenty at the two hides - herds of wildebeest, impala and nyala and plenty of birds. It's about 60 km to the Memorial Gate entrance to the Imfolozi-Hluhluwe Game Reserve - we got up early and got there as the gates opened to spend the day in the reserve. It's also worth driving up Jozini and taking a boat out on the dam. The hotel has a great offering of tours with their own guides.

We booked for 6 nights but left after the first night. I cannot recommend this place to anyone. The owners is misrepresenting the property. There was no ice machine. Aircon was not working. Shower is not draining the water away. Pool and entertainment area needs TLC. The unit was cockroach invested.

Very awesome little town that gives you Caribbean vibes. Just be mindful they search for alcohol when you enter the park or when you go to the beach. Cape Vidal was a good drive out and Ingwe beach is great for morning outings.
