“Amazing game drive with Jaym”

We did a sundowner game drive with Jaym and it was amazing. Jaym was super knowledgeable and friendly and managed to spot some really hidden sightings. We are so grateful. It is a really beautiful setting too. We loved it. Would highly recommend

A wonderful place with beautiful grounds. The safari was an unforgettable experience, and our ranger, Neil, shared fascinating stories about the animals and nature. We didn’t miss a single drive. The relaxation area is very well organized with views of the watering hole, adding to the ambiance. The rooms are magnificent, with lovely bathrooms and terraces offering stunning views. It’s the kind of place you want to return to again and again. We visited last year for my husband’s birthday and stayed for three days. Our package included safaris and a massage, but we didn’t have time for the massage. On the morning of our departure, we went to the reception to schedule it, as it was already paid for. A woman named Lehana (not sure if I’m spelling it correctly) told us everything was likely fully booked. We asked her to check the schedule, but she said the system wasn’t working. When we requested she call the spa, she simply replied, “no.” We then asked to switch to a ranger walk instead, and again received the same answer—“no.” It wasn’t an apology or explanation, just a blunt “no.” Finally, we went to the spa ourselves, where a very friendly woman was able to schedule us in. The massage was excellent, and the spa area itself was lovely with many places to relax. I hope the hotel takes feedback into account, as such a wonderful place deserves more welcoming staff. We plan to visit again early next year and look forward to returning.

Due to all the nice reviews and the lovely marketing videos and pictures from the lodge itself, we were so much looking forward to our stay. However, our experience was a real disappointment. The game drives were the only and absolute highlight due to our guide Gerard who made the drives super interesting and enjoyable. He made such an effort to show us all the animals and had many interesting stories to tell. All the rest was unfortunately very commercialized. The park is rather small with only a small number of animals. The food was just disgusting. The cupboards in our family suite had a weird smell so that we rather left our clothes in our suitcases. The family suite itself was very dark and lacked any character. Overall, we would not recommend this lodge.
