From the second you arrive to the time you leave here, the time spent will be amazing and memorable. The staff are all so friendly and efficient. The setting is absolutely spectacular with the Pilanesberg visible from every angle. The food is outstanding and being able to select from the three course menu for lunch and dinner was beyond a delightful treat. With every meal being separately prepared, it is a gastronomic journey of delight. The game drives were excellent and on our last morning, we saw lions! What a great way to round off an amazing few days. The room was great and the outdoor shower sublime while the bed was like a little piece of sleep heaven. Highly recommend staying here!

Wow, I've been trying to write this review for a few days now because I can't fully express just how extraordinary Lush Private Lodges is and how much we enjoyed our stay.
Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the friendly team and shown to the most stunning room ever. The bed is so spacious you'll definitely lose each other in the night!
The room was immaculately clean, and every time we stepped out, the housekeepers were there tidying up. They even left us charming little notes and cups of tea each night.
The food was fantastic; we thoroughly enjoyed both breakfasts and lunches. One evening, we celebrated my partner’s birthday with a private dinner on our balcony, complete with a birthday cake as requested prior to arrival. Compliments to the chef and thanks to everyone who made the evening unforgettable.
A huge thank you to Avi, our incredible guide. Avi was exceptionally knowledgeable about both wildlife and plants. We were fortunate enough to see the Big 5 and so many other animals. Avi even had us spitting impala poo, making toothbrushes from plants, and chewing on numbing leaves. The hot water bottles and ponchos were lifesavers on those chilly mornings. The snacks and gins were beautifully presented, and we felt truly special throughout the trip.
We can't wait to return to Lush; we've already booked to stay again for 2025!

Tambuti is the best accommodation experience I think I've ever had. Better than any 4* or 5* hotel that I've stayed at, so truly exceptional. The warmth of the welcome, the attention to detail, the thoughtfulness and care - all were just wonderful. Plus we had tremendous food and drink, a beautiful building and location, and a marvellous guided safari experience. Very intimate (just 5 suites) and outstanding in every respect.

The location was excellent. The lodge was amazing with every facility imaginable, especially the game drives that were included. Owen our personal guide was extremely knowledgeable about all the plants and animals which made it exciting and very interesting.

We cannot recommend Kgorogoro lodge enough - beautiful location, large rooms, even larger living area, the BEST staff and ranger. We travelled as a group of 7 adults and 5 kids (8months - 4.5 years) and it was perfect! The photo's on the advert do not do the accommodation justice at all.
For the active travellers, a chalet is a great mix of the outdoors and the snug inside. Usually fully furnished and self-catered, chalets are typically wooden and in the Alpine region of Europe, but can also be found elsewhere in the world. Characterised by their sloped roofs, chalets can be single units or separate apartments, and are ideal for skiing holidays.

Well maintained lodge. Quality of meals. Helpful staff. Rangers tried their best to enable a good viewing experience for the guests. The entire team is well organised and co-ordinated.
It’s a lodge with cabins spread out over a large area - hence it could take up to 5 minutes walk to get to your cabin … guests should not expect hotel like facilities.
An overall great experience with extremely friendly staff. Nice food mostly served at the table which added to the exclusive experience of the place. Really well equipped cabins with outdoor showers. My son very impressed with the wifi even if our cabin was located quite far away from the main building. Last but not least mostly great safari drives. We managed to get on five fine drives in total during our stay. Didn't get to see all of the big five though. But still an amazing experience for us being first time on a safari lodge.
Open shower was soooo enjoyable ✨
Amazing confortable room/hut in nature 🌳🛖
Friendly staff 🥰
Great drives with knowledgeable ranger, Thanks Rassi for helping us spot so many animals 🛻📷🥰🐘🦏🐃🦓🦁🦒🇿🇦
This is a really large property for an all inclusive safari experience, but the staff still manage to deliver great service that is remarkably personal. Very comfortable rooms. Air conditioning makes all the difference in the current heat wave. Proper sized bathrooms with doors and an outdoor shower. Good quality toiletries. Beautifully cleaned rooms with barely any bugs, which is a wonder for chalets located in the bush.
