The tents were in good condition the beds were super comfy and it was suitable for our stay.. a small fridge in the room would be good and a tea and coffee station would also be appreciated. In one of the tents the duvet had been burnt which made the sleep a little uncomfortable but on a whole we were super happy.. the staff were all super friendly and helpful.

Einfache, empfehlenswerte Lodge

Wenn man von der Zufahrt absieht, waren wir überrascht über die gesamte Anlage. Sie ist aufgelockert und kein Nachbar stört. Die Chalets sind sehr geräumig und mit einer großen Terrasse. Das einzige Manko ist das Licht im Zimmer, etwas dunkel. Das Restaurant hat eine sehr gute Qualität und das Personal ist sehr, sehr hilfsbereit. Wir würden dort jederzeit wieder unser Quartier aufschlagen. Es ist keine 5-Sterne Lodge, keine Übertreibung in der Ausstattung und Service, aber ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

A Wonderful Wilderness Find!

We didn't know anything about this place, but would go back in a heartbeat. We stayed in one of the tents, but don't let the word "tent" fool you. Yes it does have canvas walls, but you are on a wood foundation, complete with shower and toilet facilities. They also provide chalets if the "tent" thing is to adventurous for you. The grounds are beautiful and landscaped very well, and the staff is very attentive. Oh, and the food is very good as well. We recommend the Porterhouse Steak for 2. Great find, give it a shot!

Amadwala MY 5 Star Lodge

My partner and I booked a one night stay at Amadwala for my bday weekend. And OH MY!!! wha an amazing experience it was. From the moment we drove in we were just impressed. As we walked in through the reception we were welcomed by the lovely George and the manager Hank.. These two gentlemen made our stay worth while, to a point that we went to fetch our son and we stayed for another night.. The breakfast was out of this world...I just wish I stayed the whole week a Amadwala.

Under right circumstances could be a nice stay

In summer I can imagine it's nice to stay in one of the tent rooms, but it's quite cold in the winter. The dam was also empty, would have made for a nice atmosphere if the dam was full and one had a bit of a view at least. Breakfast was good, and the Manager, Lucky, was very helpful and friendly.
