Our stay absolutely blew us away. The tent was stunning with a private pool and fire pit. To top it off it was the clearest night sky filled with more stars than I’ve ever seen and breakfast delivered to the tent in the morning was a lovely touch. The staff were fantastic and truly went above and beyond to make the experience special. We loved the entire stay and honestly didn’t want to leave⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We were the first ‘official’ guests at the Yamu Lifestyle Resort on 25 November. The complex is completely new. The management at Yamu warned us in advance that not all the work had been completed yet. And that's how it was... The reception and main restaurant weren't quite finished and ready for business yet. But we could live with that, and we were looked after extremely well throughout our stay. Even the owner's family looked after us every day and made sure we were happy. The location is impressive and the luxury tents are of very good quality and beautifully and stylishly furnished. They blend in wonderfully with the landscape. It will probably take a few more days until everything is finished and set up... Nevertheless, we really enjoyed our stay and if our travels take us back to this area, we will definitely stay at the Yamu Lifestyle Resort again.
