Amazing hotel and Safari

It's difficult to describe how wonderful everything was on this trip. The hotel is beautiful, the staff is really wonderful (hats off especially to Angie and to our guide Doctor). On out three day stay we were able to see and photograph the "big 5" and lucky enough to see the "big 7" (a cheetah and wild dogs) and after the safari we would eat wonderful meals and enjoy the hotel accommodations. They are right in front of a water hole, so you may be eating lunch and suddenly see Zebras coming in to drink water. Amazing!

A truly Amazing Holiday

This is truly an amazing place to stay in all respects. The people at the lodge are really lovely and friendly,helpful and efficient,the 2 safaris each day are perfect opportunities to see the animals close up with a friendly informative ranger who ensures you make the most of each trip and everything here is done to a very high standard throughout. We took there car from the airport for the 4 hour journey with a nice friendly driver and on arrival at lodge we were greeted by the lovely Angela who made us so welcome and couldn't do enough to make sure our stay was the best possible.The room was super,very comfortable and finished to a very high standard with great views.The food was amazing at every meal,perfect service plenty of choice and drinks available all day and on the safaris,more than you will ever need.We saw all the animals you could dream of several times on our 4 day stay which was about right. Thank you all for a wonderful stay-one of the best holidays we have ever had

Great lodge and location is perfect

Amazing place to stay, only issue I would say was the outdoor plunge pool doesn't have a cover so lots of bugs and debris. Had to scoop it out myself but wasn't perfect. Also on checkout day the fridge is locked in the morning, so couldn't get a bottle of water unless I went to main lodge

Big Five und mehr....

Luxus Lodge mit allem drum und dran. Von der Ankunft bis zur Abreise nahezu perfekt. Top Service, hohe Essensqualität, top Ranger, tolle Game Drives, Wasserloch vor der Lodge; grosser Tierauswahl mit allem, was man gerne sehen möchte; freundliche Besitzer; nette Gäste, hervorragende Live Musik zu Neujahr. Einziger Abstrich, Sonderbehandlung einer Familie bei der Essenszubereitung war nervig; und zum Schluss wären entstaubte Scheiben beim Auto ein Tüpfelchen auf dem i.
