Flitterwochen geeingent
Wir haben hier, wie viele Paare :-), unsere Flitterwochen verbracht und die Game Drives waren wirklich unvergesslich - eine Einmalige Erfahrung und ja - wir haben die Big 5 nach drei drives zusammengehabt! Lucky, unser Ranger, hat wirklich mit viel Ehrgeiz und Wissen durch die Safaris geführt!!! Wir haben drei Nächte hier verbracht und das haben wir auch als ausreichend empfunden. Unsere Villa war gut ausgestattet, aber teils war das Mobiliar etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Die „Zelte“ wiederum waren moderner. Also Tipp: Bucht ein Zelt ⛺️ Das Essen war abwechslungsreich, dennoch müssen wir zugeben, dass wir in Südafrika 🇿🇦 teils besser gegessen haben. Drinks waren größtenteils alle inkludiert und das den ganzen Tag. Im Hinblick auf das Gesamtpaket also 8/10; aber die Safaris waren definitiv eine 12/10.
Manchmal könnten gerade die Toiletten etwas sauberer sein bzw. Mehrfach am Tag gereinigt werden. Aber weil wir uns eben auch “im Busch” befinden, werden für die Reinigung eben auch keine Chemikalien verwendet - dafür muss man eben auch ein wenig Verständnis haben.

Lovely experience of safari, great food throughout and staff so friendly and helpful
Location is 7.5km off main road, up a very bumpy uneven track but once at main reception, our car was parked nearby as we were shown to our personal lodge. Excellent accommodation, lots of room and complimentary drinks throughout as was all food which was of highest quality. Staff very helpful and on our final night, we were treated to our evening meal in the outdoor facility which was a lovely surprise. Special mention to VG which could easily stand for Very Good, as he was helping us throughout our stay!

this is a lovely little lodge but needs staff training and some TLC
great location and nicely designed and laid out. Safari guide “Ruaan” was excellent
food was poor with repetitive choices and the overall maintenance needs work.

Exceptional
I only stayed for a night but was an incredible experience and the ranger (Dario) went above and beyond to find what I wanted to see, cannot thank him enough for the game drives! The staff were all very welcoming and helpful. Food was delicious. Views from the lodge itself are just incredible and the room was insane. I highly recommend this lodge to anyone visiting the area.

Average.
The game ranger. The animal sightings.
No attention to detail. Poor communication on arrival. Access is not suitable for normal/low cars. Long delay on washing service. No pre-checkin communication. No interest in personal guest details. Glassware and decor is subject standard for 5 star. Lack of organisation amongst staff due to no visible leadership.
