    Book a room on lower level hah, the baboon's might run across the roof which was noisy but adventurous.

    The location is absurd. This could not be topped. Wild elephants at the pool, very very nice breakfast and diverse dinner. Despite the size of the resort it felt very personal. The prive Safari was amazing. Price quality wise unmatched. Never mind, book this.

    An experience of a lifetime, from the food, to the staff, to the room and the facilities. We enjoyed every moment of our stay from the moment we were welcomed to the moment we left. All I can say is if you get an opportunity to stay here, you should. It is a really great place to unwind and relax as a couple.

    For the value I expected the rooms more cosy. Maybe the decoration was a bit old school. And the rooms are too close to each others you could listen the noises from the other rooms.

    Incredible Place!! The dinner and breakfast was amazing. All the common spaces were very well thought. The pool was a dream, you could see the animals wile swimming.

    That when the room was cleaned all bedding and towels were removed and then they moved to the next room, to only come back later. So if you wanted to shower etc because you were not out for the day, you had to request or wait until thye came back to finish your room

    Breakfast and location were excellent

    This is a very minor thing, but the dinner is a buffet. It just doesn’t fit the look and feel of the hotel. A la carte would’ve fitted way better, but hey.. that’s just my opinion ;)

    No doubt, everything was awesome, well organized and perfectly arranged. From breakfast to dinner, safari or just relaxing at the pool, everything is possible. The staff is incredibly friendly, and is very co-operative. In my honest opinion it’s worth a visit!

    Room is beautiful, but lacks a few basic comforts: No bedside carpet/mat cold tiles shock when you wake up. No comfy chair with ottoman for TV. No desk chair for working. Proper living room carpet will be nice - there's just a small piece of plastic matting. Light's can't dim, full bright or nothing.

    Breakfast and Dinner are both included and are very good and beautiful venues and excellent service. Airport transfers are comfortable with game viewing along the way if you're lucky. Hotel Safaris are well organised, guides are well trained and knowledgable. Good pools and pool side service.

    Still water could have been provided in the room for all the days off or stay. It was only provided on the 1st day.

    It was the perfect location to the Kruger. We saw 4 of the big five and we were only there for 1 day.

    mass tourism, too big, too standard, better suited to group tourists than individual travellers and not the money worth

    The dinner and breakfast are open buffet. The location is great, very close to the gate.
