"Good value."

Breakfast was good, as was the coffee. Reasonably priced lodge amongst a sea of ridiculously exorbitantly priced game lodges.

Very slow toaster line. Was there a fried egg option?

Over het geheel leuke accommodatie. Wat er wel zou moeten zijn is een airco op de kamer . Voor de prijs en de hitte in de zomer . De fan kan alleen maar gardven heel hard wat erg hard waait als je ligt te slapen . We vonden t zwembad in verhouding met de aantal huisje best klein . En deze kan wat love and care gebruiken .

"Positively added to our memories of our African trip! Thank you ☺️"

10.0

Staff made us feel welcome from arrival to us leaving. The pool and bar area was very comfortable and fitting for the African experience! The meals were delicious and plentiful! The mosquito nets over the beds were very welcomed! Having the wild life on the door step was lovely to see. Assistance from Jondre and his team to get our car out of the mud after the welcomed rains was greatly appreciated! I Would definitely recommend a stay at Timbavati!

We couldn’t really fault the property!

"Timbavati safari lodge stay"

5.0

I liked the animals roaming around in the evening and the proximity to the kruger gate.

I would have liked butter instead of margarine. Please use normal coffee cups instead of plastic cups with meals. Please improve the quality of your coffee. Hair dryers and fridges in the rooms Please

Good breakfast in the dining area. Packs for road trip were fine.

One bar staff member was not too friendly. Cleaning in the room wasn't 100%
