Een super plek met vriendelijke ontvangst, lekker eten en gezellige huisjes. Alles is aanwezig voor een top ervaring. Ook de ligging op 20 min van het Krugerpark is ideaal.

Helemaal niets

Don’t even know where to start. If I could, I’d give it 100. Seriously. Such a cute and well kept place, meals were great, everyone working there was just amazing. One of the best places I stayed in South Africa.

Ontzettend leuke plek met heel enthousiast personeel. Daardoor is het niet erg dat het allemaal iets eenvoudiger is.
