    A bit of a glitch where we were allocated a garden view room when I booked a lakeview but was rectified.

    The breakfast was good but the lunch can be improved on. Enjoyed the dinner which was included in the price and reminded me of home! The lodge is very close to the KNP gates and has enough space to take morning/evening walks.

    The amount of stairs I had to hike to get to my room? Treacherous. Shower water was always warm, never truly hot.

    Very serene. Staff was very helpful and kind.

    Breakfast options are so limited and restricted on what is available. For the price I could have had a better breakfast elsewhere. For example, they didn’t offer sweet stuff like muffins or savoury treats. Only breads was provided. The rooms are clean but could do with air fresheners especially for thatched rooms overlooking the river.

    The hotel is very clean and not very busy. Has good facilities and located near shopping centres/ malls. View from our room was amazing.

    Overall the lodge itself combined with its staff, par excellence, they exceeded my expectations.

    I didnt like that my room has small ants passing through under my room door, and in the bathroom there was also a cockroach, but the bathroom was clean spotless though. So if they can make sure that outside the rooms by the door area, insecticide is sprayed often to kill the ants and any creepy crawlies like cockroaches that seep through below the door. Thats the only thing I didnt like.

    Breakfast was great, there a choice of different kinds of breakfast meals. Location was perfect as its central to many amenities and nearby attractions like Elephant whispers, Skyway Trails to name a few, and a gateway to Kruger National Parks Phabeni which is also a 15min drive, and an hour and a half to Three Rondavels and anything in between the travel time becomes shorter. I will be returning back to Umbhabha Eco Lodge with a partner this time around. I will even stay longer.

    1st night ala carte menu for dinner we ordered fish, the fish was dry and full of bones 🥹 And also not everything needs to be garnished with “paprika “ on the rim of the plate.

    The hospitality and friendly staff✌🏿 The ambience Perfect location Buffet breakfast & Dinner were top tier 😁 compliments to the kitchen staff. Was happy to see my ex colleague Hildah 😅
