"Very Good"

7.0

The game drive, although we didn’t see a lot of animals. Themba was the best guide and knowledgeable. The views from our tent, very tranquil environment.

The outside bathtub was not clean but they quickly attended to it when we raised it. Also the the alcohol included in the package, There’s no variety, only beers and gin. It would’ve been better if there were some ciders, I had to pay for my own cos I don’t drink beer

"Amazing resort with great staff"

10.0

Amazing resort, easily a 10/10. The tents are beautiful, with private plunge pools and outdoor showers that make the stay feel extra special. The staff is super friendly and always happy to help. We had fantastic safaris with our guide Jonathan, who was very knowledgeable and even got us amazingly close to cheetahs. Sunrise coffees and sunset drinks on safari were such a great touch. We also loved our treatments with Presh - she did a great job. The food, service, and overall vibe of the resort were just amazing.

"My experience as a returning guest"

8.0

The facility and privacy of the tents, met my expectations as a returning guest. The staff was friendly and accommodating of special requirements. Chef Xoli and Nonhlanhla ensured that the food was good quality and tasty 😋. Special high five to Promise who served us daily with a smile and laughter, she is a good representative of the facility and what it stands for, customer facing comes natural to her😊. They put a lot of effort into making Christmas special for the guests.

The road from the main gate to the reserve, was terrible especially during wet conditions. It was slippery and muddy with ditches that seemed to have been left unattended for some time. Nothing has changed since the last feedback with regards to the car ports and their condition since my visit last year😕, they still look terrible and small, making it a challenge to park a big car.
