Fantastisch

10.0

Geweldige lodge! Schoon, prachtige locatie, heerlijk eten en vriendelijk personeel. Game drives met Ben waren top. Elke avond legde Jackson een warme kruik in bed. Echt fantastisch verblijf!

Perfect experience

10.0

Everything was just perfect! The food was cooked by five different chefs and each dish was amazing. The lodge has a great location, so the game drives were super enjoyable. The staff were all so lovely, warm and helpful — we felt really well taken care of. The rooms were spotless and had everything we could possibly need. We had such a wonderful time here — thank you for making it so special!

The only thing I can say is that we visited in July, and the evenings were actually really cold. It would be nice to have an electric heater or something similar in the room at night.
