Nyaru Game Lodge

Well for starters, there was a girafe present for the tour of the lodge! Honestly this lodge was the highlight of our two week trip. The safari was great the room was big and clean (every thing look new).We had a giraffe sleep next to our room (how amazing I that). There was a Meercat who greeted us at our doorstep! It felt like the lion king movie haha! Oh yeah they have two bush pigs hanging around that are also very nice! I highly RECOMMEND this place, the staff was great and the food (we had supper and breakfast) was great. Our dinner was taken right next to a pond where the animals come and drink. By far the best supper (scenery & food) of my vacation!

Fantastic place for a family with kids, a 'safari lite' if you like. They have a tame giraffe, a hilarious pair of warthogs, enough wildlife for a good quad bike safari and an early morning nature walk, both of which we did. They have small swimming pools, good food and the staff are all very friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful couple of days at Nyaru, and also went into Mossel Bay a couple of times to eat which was excellent too. This is NOT a Big Five Safari, but once you have the right expectations, you will love this quirky but professionally run, family Safari Lodge.

From the moment you enter the reserve you will be surprised by "Ayanda" the tame 2yr old giraffe who is always roaming around the accommodation and definately not camera shy. "Rafiki" the cute meerkat was also always close by with the two warthogs not too far behind. The rooms are pleasant and the staff was very friendly and engaging. Would definitely recommend this lodge for a one or two night stay and although they do not have the big five, having such a close encounter with a giraffe is a memorable experience.

Very good location, comfortable room, good facilities but food cab improve.

Thank you for making our South Africa visit that much more special! We arrived and were not only greeted by friendly staff but wild (friendly) animals too! It was fantastic - my New Zealand partner was wowed! The room was clean, fresh and just what we expected from a game lodge plus more! Quite frankly, we were surprised this hidden gem was only rated a 3 star. We normally only stay in five star accomodation and we were impressed by the lodge - we'd rate it a four! We have no complaints what so ever! The staff were accomodating when we turned up with an additional guest. The food was authentic but still enjoyable for foreigners (I'm South African but my partner is from New Zealand). The resident meerkat was more than friendly and such a great little addition to our stay! The quad bike safari was amazing! We were able to get close but safely up to the wild life - our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. And the quad bikes were a lot of fun too! We couldn't recommend this lodge more!! Exceptional! Thank you!

Aufenthalt war sehr angenehm mit 'Hausgiraffe' Das Personal könnte etwas freundlicher sein. Die Betten in den Chalets könnten breiter sein , für 2 Erwachsene sehr schmal.

Great place, very welcoming, went on a quad bike safari with Malcom... Great, well worth a visit.

Heerlijk genoten van de leuke cottages op het park. De tamme giraffe en everzwijnen maken het meteen gezellig. We zijn in de ochtend met de quad op "safari" geweest. Het park is niet zo groot dus in 2 uur heb je ook alles gezien, mooie is dat je heel dichtbij komt en schitterende foto's kan maken van de natuur en de dieren. Eten was goed. Toch zou ik hier niet meerdere dagen willen zitten, daarvoor is het park te klein en te weinig in de omgeving te doen.

Vom ersten bis zum letzten Moment hatten wir Tiere um uns herum. Perfektionisten werden sich in dem Hotel nicht wohl fühlen, aber die familiäre Atmosphäre und die Erfahrung Tiere hautnah zu erleben war einzigartig.

Sans aucun doute le coup de cœur du voyage...Un peu perdu dans les collines au dessus de Mossel Bay au bout d'une route en terre.. Comité d’accueil "Un girafon"a l'entrée et Pumba & Timon qui vivent dans le Lodge sur un canapé réservé !!!! Des petits chalets 4 personnes très cosy et une salle de restaurant magique ouverte sur la savane. Excellent repas du soir. Et puis la randonnée en Quad dans la petite réserve avec notre guide très sympa Seul regret la piscine pas utilisable car très sale dommage....
