Reviews from previous guests
“We would highly recommend this luxury safari experience. We spent two nights at this wonderful lodge where the friendly staff go out of their way to make this a stay to remember. With its spectacular views there are not many destinations where you can have a game viewing experience while languishing in the bath. The food was plentiful and delicious. Our game ranger Alistair and tracker Sibu were really knowledgeable, professional and friendly. We hope to visit again soon,” wrote Sarah and Mark their TripAdvisor page.
