"Heaven"

10.0

Kosi Forest Lodge is a magical and beautiful place to stay. The lodge is beautiful and the activities offered are amazing. The staff are all incredible and there wasn’t anything they didn’t do for us. Blessing and Thulani are amazing hosts. The food was outstanding. We were very well looked after. sundowners with Lindalani was a highlight. The hidden gem is Jerome, who took us canoeing, he is a wealth of information and it was simply the best morning we have had! We look forward to returning!

Lovely location the tented accommodation was comfortable and exceeded expectations. The food was excellent.pool area lovely and we saw an amazing sunset

The weather was unfortunately against us on the first day so not able to participate in activities with no guarantee that we would be able to do anything the following day.we were able to go on the boat trip but safety did not seem to be a priority no life jackets provided and the outboard motor did not sound very healthy

The staff were incredibly warm and accommodating. We were made to feel at ease immediately upon our arrival. Our guides were extremely capable and happily shared their knowledge of the local culture and flora and fauna. And the food was incredible! We'd love to return someday soon!
