The facilities are good

We spent 3 nights in Motswiri lodge. The staff is very friendly and always smiling. Everything is done to make your stay confortable and unforgettable. Special thank to Elliot, our ranger. he is very kind, professional, available and he really listens to the guests’ expectations. He really goes the extra miles to make the game drives an unforgettable experience. We spotted the leopard for our first time, thanks to his perseverance and tenacity to try to find it. All the family enjoyed it. The food is also very good thanks to a very good chef. We will definitely be back for another stay. Thank you Motswiri team.

Everything was absolutely first class. The accommodation was stunning, staff so attentive and helpful and the food delicious. The ranger and tracker were incredibly knowledgeable and keen to share their experiences. The attention to detail when laying dining tables was spot on and the care taken didn’t go unnoticed. Varying the location every evening was a nice touch and demonstrated the thought that went into meeting all our needs. Thanks to the chefs who were extremely talented. The afternoon snacks and the breakfasts were varied and extremely tasty. I would like to mention everyone by name by way of thanks but special mention to Dezchelle, Linri, Marie, Sam and Lots for their kindness. I should just mention the abundance of wildlife too. The leopard spot was a highlight for us. Thank you Impodimo, you are fabulous!

I would like to thank the entire Last Word team for the unforgettable stay we had there. Everything was beyond excellent. I wouldn’t be able to make the word limit here if I wanted to list what we liked about our stay. Gold standard of hospitality - I’ll tell you that. For those who are interested mostly in the game drives - I can assure you Damien is the best in this business, simply unbelievable skill and knowledge of the subject - you are guaranteed to learn something new about the wildlife. Thank you a thousand times Team!!!!

This is to express our utmost satisfaction and appreciation for the wonderful stay we had at Rhulani. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm and friendly smiles from the staff, setting the tone for an unforgettable experience. The staff's welcome was truly exceptional. Their genuine hospitality and attentiveness made us feel like valued guests throughout our stay. Their knowledge and passion for the lodge and its surroundings were evident, and they went above and beyond to ensure that we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The facility itself was nothing short of remarkable. Every aspect of the lodge was meticulously designed and maintained, creating a luxurious and tranquil atmosphere. The room we stayed in was simply stunning. The spaciousness, elegant furnishings, and attention to detail made it a cozy and inviting sanctuary. The private pool added a touch of exclusivity and allowed us to relax and unwind in privacy, surrounded by the beauty of the natural surroundings. The game drives were an absolute highlight of our stay. The knowledgeable and passionate game ranger (Willem) provided a wealth of information about the wildlife and their habitats, making each drive an educational and thrilling experience. The encounters with the magnificent animals in their natural habitat were truly awe-inspiring and left us with memories that will last a lifetime. The Boma evening was a truly memorable experience. The traditional setting, the crackling fire, and the delicious food made for an authentic and enjoyable evening. It offered a unique opportunity to connect with other guests and share stories while immersing ourselves in the rich African culture. The food and beverage offerings at Rhulani were exceptional. We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the entire team at Rhulani for their dedication to providing an exceptional guest experience.

Well run, friendly property owned by local community. Staff were wonderful, catering to every comfort and need. Guides, especially Ronnie were extremely knowledgeable regarding the wildlife, insects and plants.
