Guest Reviews

• CRISTIANE (10/5): - Uma experiência incrível, atendimento impecável.
• wagner cesar (8/5): Otimo - O hotel é otimo. Porem, no local onde ele fica tem inúmeras outras opcoes que tambem sao otimas por um preco menor. Mas o local é otimo, com 2 safaris por dia e tudo incluso em termos de alimentacao.
• Camila (10/5): Unforgettable Experience - Everything at Nyati Safari Lodge was absolutely wonderful. The rooms were spotless and incredibly comfortable – ours was located right in front of the river, and on the very first day we had elephants, crocodiles, and other wildlife right in front of us. It was like living in a nature documentary! The meals and drinks were delicious! The entire staff was incredibly attentive, making us feel welcome and taken care of every step of the way. The highlight of our stay was definitely the game drives. Kenneth, Peter, Pride, and Freja went above and beyond, always asking which animals we wanted to see and doing everything they could to make it happen. Each game drive ended with either a morning coffee or a sunset drink, always paired with a breathtaking view of the reserve. I truly can’t wait to go back!
• Tahereh (10/5): - We had a great experience at Nyati Safari Lodge, from check-in to check-out. We stayed for six days and had a wonderful time. All the staff were friendly and polite, and the game drives were both knowledgeable and enjoyable. We did four game drives with Peter, which were exciting adventures as we searched for animals. Also, Lux and Henry were great and knowledgeable. The food was delicious, and everything was well-organized. There are a few areas that could use some attention and improvement: -The outdoor restaurant was difficult to enjoy during our stay because of windy and cool weather. It would be helpful if they provided heaters for such conditions. -During the buffet, I noticed some guests refilling their plates without using new ones, which could pose a hygiene risk, especially since many guests were coughing and sneezing. -It would be great if they offered hot drinks like cappuccinos or lattes. When I asked if I could buy one, I was told they didn’t have any, though a coffee machine could easily provide this option. Overall, I highly recommend Nyati Safari Lodge to anyone seeking adventure along with a luxury stay.
• Gabriel (10/5): 10 out 10 - Awesome place, food and experience. Would certainly go back.
• subha (10/5): - Great place super friendly staff and fantastic chef!
• Abigail (10/5): Loved the Nyati Safari Lodge!!!! - My 30 year old daughter and I had an amazing three days at the Nyati Lodge, went on 6 game drives, saw all kinds of animals and were able to take the time to observe them in their natural habitat. The guides were extremely knowledgeable about the area, the animals and the flora and lodge is beautiful, well-equipped and very well organized. The staff were also extremely friendly and helpful and the food was excellent. We flew into Hoedspruit and the lodge arranged transport to and from the airport. We would unequivocally recommend Nyati as a place for a true African safari experience.
• Deivid (10/5): - Lugar incrível, equipe preparada e atenciosa. A comida é magnífica, cada ingrediente do chef Simon é pensado para que o prato seja impecável. Quarto muito confortável, Safari ótimo, os Ranger fazem de tudo para ver todos animais.
• Svend-Aage (10/5): Meget for pengene - Et dejligt lodge med fuldpension med mad af god kvalitet som serveres ved bordet. Fine omgivelser. Mange safaritur og andre gode gratis aktiviteter som brunch i bushen, aftensmad i bushen med mad fra bål af god kvalitet og efterfølgende natsafari med guidet stjerne observation m.m. Højt service niveau og dygtige guider.
• Tomas (10/5): Outstanding place. Quality out of heaven - Nyati Safari Lodge is great place to stay. We have been welcomed with a drink upon our arrival. Than Nicole introduce us a our driver for the Game drives in the mornings and afternoons Gunter. All the employees are trying to make your stay memorable as much as possible. all the meals were great, nice touch with a dinners outside by fireplace, than in the restaurant in fancy style or the dinner on the top of the Hill or or coktail stop in the reservation to overlook a sunset... Every single day there was some nice suprise from the Lodge. They made our 6 day stay outsanding. We have been treated like King and Queen. Animals in the mornings and afternoons were everywhere. In one day we have been able to see the whole big five. Than by buschwalk, Duncan explain us a lot of new things about animals. Rangers at the Nyati very knowledgeable and always their try their best to seek in reservation animals and explain all the questiion that came up to our minds. If I could give this accomodation and people who runs this place 6 stars out of five I would definitely do that. They were way way ahead of our expectacions in every meanings possible. Nyati Lodge will stay foe ever in our hearts thanks to everyone working in this beautiful place.
• Mnr (10/5): Honeymoon stay with Nyati - Amazing they treated us like royals!
• Carlos (6/5): standard - Hotel pode ser no maximo um 3 estrelas. Região complicada para quem quer ver o big 5! Tem que buscar muito os animais e alguns rangers parecem desconhecer. Comida somente na hora que o hotel oferece e bem padrão. Além disso, devido à presença grande de um grupo de Dinamarqueses (e dono do hotel ser um) muitas explicações eram dadas no idioma deles (somente) e com bandeiras do país. Um pouco desreispeitoso com um numero grande de Brasileiros presentes.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Could be a few more animals in the reserve, but the Nyati Lodge earns their stars in taking care of their customers. Very attentive staff with quite some good singers and dancers amongst them. Very spacious rooms and great beds. And if you’ve never vacationed with the danish, swedes or norwegians.... they’re really nice and talented people.
• Nicolaas (6/5): African Safari - Expected much more for the price paid. Food average. Only saw two of big five over three day period. Some game rangers very inexperienced.
• Daniella (6/5): Não vale o que cobra - O hotel não vale o que cobra. É um lugar lindo, as instalações são boas, o quarto tem bom tamanho, mas por causa das atividades dos safaris não dá pra aproveitar muito as instalações. É all inclusive, mas vc é restrito a comer o que eles oferecem e na hora que oferecem. Se o almoço é salada, por exemplo, não existe uma segunda opção. Além disso, o hotel fica numa reserva privada dentro do Kruger Park, e apesar deles terem os big 5 é muito difícil de ver todos. Isso foi até afirmado por um dos guias do hotel. Não voltaria.
• Tatiane (8/5): Bom custo benefício, mas poucos animais - O hotel é grande, com muitos quartos e uma área comum boa. Num geral o quarto era confortável e limpo, simples, mas aconchegante. No nosso caso em específico ficamos um pouco incomodados porque bem ao lado estavam fazendo uma obra, o barulho atrapalhou e foi bem inconveniente. Pela época que fomos, final de junho, não vimos praticamente nenhum elefante na beira do rio. A comida é sensacional, com pratos elaborados e bem preparados. Em relação aos safáris, ficamos um pouco decepcionados, ao nosso ver a reserva parece não ter tantos animais, em 2 dias (4 safáris) foi um pouco custoso achar mesmo os animais mais "comuns" da região. Nesse quesito certamente há outras opções melhores. O staff é muito prestativo e nos recebeu super bem.
• Mauro (10/5): Grande experiência, recomendo! - Passei três noites no lodge com minha esposa, comemorando 1 ano de casados e fomos MUITO bem atendidos por todos. Tudo muito organizado, limpo e colaboradores atenciosos para te ajudar sempre. Uma grande experiência, super recomendo! Os safáris foram incríveis, mesmo não tendo visto o Búfalo e Leopardo, de resto, vimos de tudo. Recomendo!
• Gisela (8/5): - Tolles Chalet, Game drives super, kleine Mängel im Service
• Juan pablo (10/5): Excelente lodge y safari! - Excelente estancia, tanto el lodge como el staff son geniales. Pasamos unos hermosos dias disfrutando de la naturaleza, los animales y la buena atencion y comida. Nos alojamos en la olifants vila, con hermosa vista al lago por donde pasaban todo tipo de animales. No olvidaremos jamas esa mañana que nos despertaron los monos y luego pasaron por delante de nuestra vila una manada de elefantes, muy bueno!. La comida es excelente y la atención de todo el staff tambien. Los safaris tanto el de mañana como el de tarde son muy buenos, pudimos ver a los big 5! definitivamente recomiendo este lugar! muchas gracias por todo.
• Huchard (6/5): Prison dorée pour riches personnes - Confort et site remarquables mais aucune liberté dans les activités. Inadapté pour les esprits indépendants.
• Jay (10/5): - Impeccable service- safaris and meals included and excellent. The villa was huge with our own pool and fire pit. You can see all sorts of wild life from your back deck including elephants and buffalo
• jamie/manu (10/5): Idyllic place, wonderful experience - Nyatti went above and beyond all around for us. We were on our honeymoon and were treated to an amazing welcome in the form of gifts and decorative roses. The staff were incredible, especially the guides - Azequiel was our regular game driver and was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and able to seek out the animals at will. We saw two lions up close on our first trip - amazing!! The food was also incredible as was our lodgings. Thank you Nyatti!! Hope to be back soon.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Horrible stay! I'd never go back there and would recommend anyone with ANY special requirements to not go there either. Despite of several emails with the staff before arrival telling them of my dietary requirements, I was brought out all meals with either Pork (which I don't eat as my religious belief) or onions (which I am severely allergic to). It wasn't once, it was every single meal for the night I stayed there. To add to that, after a long day at the game drive, when I got to my room, the shower in the room did not have any hot water. My husband and I spent almost an hour and a half waiting for someone to come fix it and when we finally got tired of waiting (at 10pm), we asked them to just come in the morning when we were on our early morning 5am game drive. Being the inconsiderate staff and management they are, someone knocked at our door at 11:35 pm to come in and fix it. We had made sure to call them and tell them that we're sleeping so make sure nobody comes, they didn't care. The guys kept knocking until we woke up and opened the door. They came in and out several times until they finally fixed it at 1am. We finally slept at 1:30am and woke up at 4:30 am for the game drive. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!!
