    Location was sublime with views over the Jozini Dam and bushveld. The game drive was a highlight with our knowledgeable guide and we took some amazing photographs and enjoyed some complimentary snacks down at the water’s edge. Nothing was too much trouble, the staff were amazing and the food and the presentation was amongst the best I have ever had. With a comfortable bed, a good night sleep, amazing location, fantastic staff and of course the game drive to round it all off. Quality! A 5 star experience!

    Nothing, everying was perfect

    Nothing but beautiful, staff and the place was beyond our expectations. It's was breath taking, wonderful and beautiful. From the security guard at the Gate to the Staff at the lodge we're very friendly and welcoming. The rooms and the lodge it's self we beyond beautiful 😍 🤩. I would highly recommend the place and I'm definitely interested in coming back. It's a beautiful hidden gems with Animal roaming freely around the Reserve and everything is beautiful.

    Very friendly staff that goes an extra mile. We were late for dinner and they arranged for it to be left in our room and also ran a candlelit bubble bath for us. This was a very needed and appreciated surprise. Thank you.

    Being made to sign an indemnity form the minute we arrived was not the most welcoming. Not sure what legal standing these have but this was the first place we visited where it seemed a big deal. Also off putting to see a list of charges in capital letters, in the room welcome pack, should you have been unlucky enough to break a glass, or the tv remote control, or another 10 or so items.

    Included a game drive of about 2 hours. While not the range of animals of the larger parks, there was plenty of interest. Staff very attentive at meal times.

    The cover port for the cars needs better cover.

    The location of the lodge is the best seller. The views of the Lebombo mountain range and the Pongola river from the rooms and the restaurant deck are majestic. We had a picnic on a hill with even better views. The staff and the service you receive makes your stay most memorable. The people are warm and welcoming and they always anticipate your every need before you even say. Lungile really made our stay special!!! The game drive is great and Emmanuel is the best guide for a Safari outing. Pity we didn't get to see all the animals we wished but the experience was worth every penny.

    There’s nothing I didn’t like but I would just suggest that they keep a load shedding schedule in the rooms so that guests can prepare ahead of time especially on check out days. We could not iron our clothes as there was load shedding during the checking out time.

    The property is clean , well kept and really beautiful.

    There was no road sign from the N2 to indicate where to turn off for the lodge, nor from the R69 to turn left onto the D road - the first sign for the lodge was at the entrance gate.

    Very nice breakfast, fresh fruit and cooked food and good coffee
