Guest Reviews
- Van Wyk (10/5): -
- Emily (10/5): Staff are extremely hands-on. Very beautiful interior decor recently updated by new owners. - Staff are extremely hands-on. Very beautiful interior decor recently updated by new owners.

- Kalven (10/5): -
- loganathan (1/5): - Nothing Rooms look terrible. I wont recommend anyone to stay at this lodge
- Heinz (5/5): One should give what was offered and have a manager in place who cares about guests . - The location is great. At the end of McKenzie Street in a dead end. No drive through traffic. Free toiletries were promised but there was only a soap. The breakfast was poor. Only cooked with a little bit of shreadded cheese and jam. No cold meat or cheese even most guests are from oversea. I ran . Only toast bread. It takes very little to bake a home made bread. The aircon unit of the managers room were along our room. Even though the temperatures were with 24C and 17 C monderate she was the only one who used the aircon (she does not need to pay the bill) and she put it on a certain temp, which resulted that the aircon went on and off every 15 minutes which woke us up each time. She did not care and told us she likes it this way. She put herself first and not the guest who paid. She has an attitude
- Hendrik (7/5): - The host and staff are very friendly and helpful and breakfast was very nice. The grounds are very well kept and neat and there is ample shade for your car. Our room was very cramped. The air-conditioning was very noisy.
- Norman (6/5): Very pleasant stay, unfortunately the room was not ready at agreed time of arrival. - Very comfortable No soap in the shower
- Julia (7/5): Schöne Unterkunft, die ihre besten Jahre gesehen hat - Die Unterkunft hat einen wunderschönen Garten und Gemeinschafts Bereich. Das Frühstück war auch gut und das Zimmer ist an sich schön Mit dem Standard des Bates waren wir überhaupt nicht zufrieden. Es gehört von Grund auf saniert, aber zum Beispiel ein Loch in der Tür kann man auch mal kurzfristig spachteln und lackieren. Ich finde, hier besteht Handlungsbedarf.
- Mikhaeel (10/5): -
- Jayraj (10/5): Fantastic getaway - Location was perfect and nestled in beautiful trees. Rooms were clean and the much needed air conditioning worked perfectly. Scenic location for beautiful photos. Breakfast was well catered. Staff are friendly and helpful. Nothing
- Sicelo (9/5): - The warm welcome from the owner, Tracy who'd always gone extra mile to ensure that our stay was as comfortable as it was❤️👌🏽, and the entire staff always treating us with love, kindness and smiles was out of this world and recommendable💝🙌🏽🙏🏼 The entire stay was awesome👌🏽👏🏼 Continue with the great work team.
- Johann (10/5): Perfect location on edge of lake with great facilities. TOP Customer service! Thanks @kingfisher - Excellent communication and assistance with activities around St Lucia. Made prompt bookings which made the stay memorable. Wish I could have stayed longer
- Charlotte (9/5): will definitely come again - We have been there the second time now. The booking was a bit complicated, as the payment goes through a second website, but once that was sorted it was all pretty perfect. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, the breakfast is delicious and there was even a surprise visit by two hippos in the garden! The rooms are well maintained, comfortable and superclean.
- Alexandra (8/5): Very good -
- Engelbrecht (10/5): Tranquil beautiful awesome confortable stunning! - Absolutely amazing! Delicious breakfast, friendly staff and very comfortable stay. Home away from home. Can highly recommend staying at Kingfisher!
- Tebogo (6/5): Pleasant -
- Gugulethu (8/5): Very good -
- Thembakazi (9/5): Relaxed and chilled - The tall trees , the rooms The entrance would look better with some clean up as it is right at the end
- Fiona (10/5): Very cosy and friendly Lodge - Nellie was a great host, super helpful and friendly - just like all the rest of the staff. The rooms were very comfy and had everything you need. The breakfast was delicious. The lodge is slightly further away from the main road in St. Lucia but that was perfect as we had peace and quiet and a beautiful garden with a view. Nothing
- Thakasani (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anna (8/5): Very good -
- Nini (8/5): Very lovely stay, staff is very friendly - I loved the breakfast The room, its a bit outdated
- Khothatso (8/5): Very good -
- Bonga (9/5): Superb -
- Sandra (7/5): The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The GM, Nelly was particularly attentive. We truly enjoyed our stay and would - I chose this lodge because of the stunning location, the sunsets here are truly amazing. Nestled on the edge of the estuary, with a true feeling of home.
- Gugulethu (6/5): Pleasant -
- Ernst (10/5): A place to chill and enjoy tranquillity of nature. - Breakfast and friendly staff. Very nice room set up and attention to detail. Tranquillity and nice pool. There should be more plugs and adapters in the rooml. (for phones, chargers, etc)
- Dieter (9/5): Superb -
- Mbali (9/5): Superb - The place is beautiful, quite relaxing and very serene Nothing
- Sonja (7/5): Good - Liked the pool area and garden. Liked having a view and close to forest trail. Breakfast area dated and tired. Breakfast limited. Would have been nice to have a platter of the fresh fruit that is sold just down the road at the market. Small bowl of chopped fruit was the only fruit there was. Some muffins and cheese etc would have been nice. No common lounge area inside to sit in the evening and too many mosquitoes to sit outside.
- Dumisani (10/5): Relaxing and invigorating indeed. - The place is relaxing. You are surrounded by nature itself. The green trees that surround you gives you clean oxygen all the time. There is no smoking or booze allowed which adds to the tranquility of the place. So far so good taking inconsideration of the general environment. They are doing their best with the tools they have at the moment.
- Motala (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect, our host was excellent
- Pieter (10/5): Exceptional -

- Freda (10/5): So, so happy! - A cool, calming and relaxed return from the beach each day, with a great breakfast to start each day! Nellie and her staff is great! The wonderfull patio, just wanted to stay and listen to all the birds, like in another world!l!
- Ellen (9/5): Superb - Excellent staff, super nice and very clean room with comfy bed, lodge is at the end of the main street so it is quiet from traffic and noise. Spotted some very cute bush babies in trees by the pool in the evening. This is not a complaint in any way(as you can see how I rated the place), but is helpful information if you don’t have your own vehicle. Without a car you will be «stuck» at the premisses after dark cause of your own safety due to wildlife. No Ubers or taxis is found in town.
- Peter (10/5): An oasis of love and peace at the edge of St Lucia and close to the forest! - We arrived very early, way before check-in time to ask if we could put some stuff in the fridge. But the host readily let us check in directly. The lodge is very well located and sharply priced. The adjacent trail is strongly recommended for any bird lover!!
- Dee (3/5): Poor - Staff n breakfast settings The absence of TV and not paved yard
- Richard (10/5): Exceptional - Everything, it's a lovely place to stay
- Sarah (7/5): Peaceful & friendly - Lovely garden, really good breakfast and very friendly, nice staff. We would have liked access to the lounge area after 5.30pm, be better if there was a night manager enabling that to happen. Not having anyone around made us feel a bit less comfortable.
- Anne-claire (9/5): Great place to stay in St Lucia - We loved that place. Really nice and quiet. Everything was perfect. We highly recommend this place
- Tietze (10/5): Tropical retreat close to restaurants but still within nature itself - Nice lodge at the end of the street. Tropical garden with lots of birds, the occasional duiker and frogs. Alternative power supply via solar. Very friendly hosts
- Marc (9/5): Very clean and friendly but price for product high - Clean and friendly Price to overall offer too high
- Anonymous (10/5): Homely, friendly, clean and peaceful - So very peaceful and a stunning setting. Friendly and helpful staff. A home away from home for us. There was nothing. It was just right for our needs.
- Trinity (9/5): Superb - Beautiful service from the staff, we loved the breakfast. Beautiful garden and it was very home-y.
- Ernst (8/5): Very good -
- Grace (9/5): Superb - It's a very quiet and serene area with beautiful gardens. Its close to the town centre. The establishment is abit old albeit well kept. An upgrade of the bathroom and linen would take it to the next level.
- Adam (9/5): Superb - amazing views of the lake, quiet location, central and close to main street better coffee :)
- Ernst (10/5): Exceptional -
- Erich (7/5): Good - The location, silence and beautiful suroundings. Water that dries up when it is loadshedding.
- Sarah (10/5): Exceptional - We absolutely loved our stay at Kingfisher Lodge. Especially the garden is so beautiful and calming with a wonderful view. We also had warthogs and monkeys visiting. Breakfast is nice and everybody was absolutely friendly and welcoming. would definitely return.
- Louise (8/5): Very good -
- Zonke (8/5): Great - Great breakfast Well, no TV just so we can listen to some soft music

- Ntwenhle (8/5): Very good - The breakfast was very delicious, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The place was very quiet and beautiful. The pool area was perfectly located.

- Nduduzo (9/5): Our stay was really great, we enjoyed and wished we booked for the whole weekend. - The view from the breakfast area was really nice, the staff (Zanele and chef ) was kind and provided a great service. The room was very small.
- Emmanuel (7/5): Good -
- Belinda (10/5): Fantastic! - Beautiful setting, great location, breakfast fantastic, swimming pool divine. The whole experience was great. Vodacom cell reception is bad, and if there’s load shedding and no Wi-Fi, there’s no connection.

- Astrid (8/5): book it if you like a nice and calm place - Nice and calm place. don’t book budget room (mattress to hard) take a no budget room and you’re more comfy :) staff was friendly and breakfast also really good. at first when we arrived, we booked the budget room, but for that price (90 euro) I wasn’t happy first, happily they had another room that was way more worth the price. at the end we had a pleasant stay, but for that price we should have got that room first. if I compare to all of my other stays.
