Hlosi Game Lodge - Amakhala Game Reserve

Unpretentious, private, a real pleasure to be there. The staff were helpful, professional and friendly, our Ranger Ryan was excellent and we saw an unexpectedly large amount of game.

The ambiance, the friendly, attentive and helpful staff and the setting. The games drives were fantastic.

I thought the food was adequate, but very ordinary. Breakfast was good,, but lunch was the low point and dinner was boring. I also think for a lodge of Hlosi's rating and standing, that a decent coffee machine is in order!

A superb safari game lodge in the Eastern Cape South Africa. Excellent in every way with very knowledgeable rangers who offer 2 x 3 hour game drives per day. Wonderful variety of animals to see :- lions, cheetah, elephant, giraffe white rhino, hippos, eland, kudu, vervet monkeys, black wildebeest, ostrich and warthogs. Utterly fabulous and our 4th visit

We stayed here as part of our honeymoon in SA. We received a very warm welcome including a welcome drink and some lunch. Check-in was super easy, and we were given a tour of the premises. Our room was beautiful, with a lovely view over the game reserve, where we were able to spot warthogs, antelope and the baby hippo which lives in the waterhole. The service was fantastic, and nothing was a bother, they kindly decorated our room after one of our game drives with a selection of cheese and crackers and a bottle of wine, which went down very nicely! The game drives, however, were the highlight. We did 6 in total, each very different but all very special. our driver, Evence, was incredibly knowledgeable and was able to spot the animals from miles away! We managed to see rhinos, elephants, lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras and antelope all up close. Our stops for morning coffee and sundowners were always in beautiful locations and we had an array of choices of drinks. We would definitely recommend staying here

The food at the lodge was tasty and filling however could be improved.

Sehr nettes und freundliches Personal. Großes Gebiet für Safari, leider haben wir nicht viele Tiere gesehen.

Both very good

The Hlosi game lodge and the reserve were one of our highlights of our SA trips. We had a lovely very spacious house and deck with 2 bathrooms with in- and outside showers. Restaurant and deck with view to the waterhole with 2 hippos was amazing. All game drives were breathtaking and “successful”. We saw all big five (replacing the leopard by cheetahs) plus giraffes, zebras, kudus, etc. very close. It was our best location to spot many animals.

The pool couldn’t be used

Everything!! The game reserve drives were unbelievable - our driver Evance was so knowledgable. Each drive was so different but so enjoyable and truly a once in a lifetime experience. The staff in the lodge were so attentive and helpful. We had such a brilliant stay and would highly recommend to everyone!

Nothing!

We had an amazing experience at this game lodge and it was one of the highlights on our trip. The staff were so friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The food was excellent and had great options to choose from. Our game drives were superb and we saw so many animals. The game driver was knowledgeable and went out of his way to ensure that we had a great experience. The room itself was fabulous and the view from your balcony was great - we could even see quite a few animals from it too. Highly recommend!
