Absolutely stunning hotel. The game drives with guide Rifos and tracker Patrick were brilliant, they are incredibly skilled and showed us all the wildlife around. The food was delicious, the beds made up perfect daily. Can’t say anything negative about this place, it’s more than 5 stars.

    The lodge, the staff and game drive. The location and the game drive are intime, with few people, so staff are always helpful and nice to you. Then the nature around is incredible
