Turaco chalet is lovely, comfortable, well equipped and clean. The wood-fired hot-tub worked like a dream, so well that it got rather warm. However, it was still warm enough to have a lovely early morning dip the next day.

Water supply to our unit was interrupted, but the staff went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible.

Calm, peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Accommodation was very comfortable.

we came across spiders in our chalet and when we checked under the beds it was full of dust and you could tell they had not been swept for months. maybe cleaning properly and checking under the beds for insects should be done before guests check in.

I liked that the chalets were isolated you couldn’t hear anything from other chalets, the place is so tranquil and we had anything that we needed for a self catering chalet, the staff was super friendly and were a phone call away.

The place was well kept and very nice views of the bush from the Charlet. We quite enjoyed the hiking trail which was a good distance to walk.

The cottage smelled a little like gass.

The area is beautiful and relaxing. The cottage was comfortable and had everything you would need.

Hidden gem with friendly staff and luxurious accommodation

The biggest disappointment was that even though the name says hot tubs not all accommodation has hot tubs. Ours didn’t. The online booking can be amended to make that clearer. We were very disappointed about that. A small issue that can easily be fixed was that on arrival the intercom at the gate did not seem to be working even though there was no load shedding, we had to phone to be let in

Great birding, beautiful grounds, chalets are well appointed and the staff were very helpful and efficient. In spite of being disappointed by the lack of a hot tub we enjoyed our stay overall.

The braai spot at our chalet (Heron) was at the bottom between some bushes. It is cute, but we didn’t end up using it because it was a bit claustrophobic. It just didn’t feel as secluded and didn’t have the view the chalet had. But it is still cute. On the booking it would be nice if it said which chalet you are staying in and if it has a hot tub. I took the cheapest option (so I wasn’t expecting a hot tub), but I think that should be more clear when you book.

Beautiful views. Access to a pool, a short hiking trail, a dam that you can swim in (you can also request ores to row around a bit, and fishing gear, all free). There is a nice viewing deck (ask how to get to it at reception). Our chalet was stunning and private. Hearing the birds every morning is awesome. There is also a really nice tub. The kitchen has a nice oven/microwave and a two plate stove. It has everything one might need (even a bread tin and cupcake pans if you feel like baking). It has a real forest cabin feel to it overall and we had a great time.

It was not comfortable to use the hottin due to the intense chlorine smell.

The location and the views.

Everything of this place was magical! A dream vacation especially romantically but also amazing for the kids to just run free and have fun! Just so tranquil. Our minds were blown as we could’nt stop staring at the beauty of this location🥹 Thunzi bush lodge you will see us again in January 2024 this time with the kids. Oh and so many of my friends have enquired that will probably visit you soon too!

Perfect escape from the busy city, breathtaking views. Amazing staff, the property was clean

Stayed in November 2023

We didn’t understand how to use the hot tub and the instructions weren’t clear. The wood was wet so we were never able to get the hot tub fire going which was disappointing. Staff wasn’t very helpful.

The cabin, the amenities and location

Stayed in October 2023

A few kitchen things like a dish rack would have been helpful, but by no means a big issue.

The location is beautiful, with fantastic facilities. Very easy to reach, and staff were willing to accommodation our (many) requests. The wood fire hot tub is also great. Also extremely clean - considering it was directly in the middle of nature I was surprised to see no bugs at all.
