nice nature getaway near Lusaka, good food and friendly staff
we had a very noisy big group of people next to us for dinner, unfortunately the staff didn't manage to keep them quiet

The surrounding so special. Feels like a hidden gem in Lusaka
I think I should have ordered a packed breakfast as I left before it was all set up in the hotel area

A lovely location with comfortable rooms, pretty garden, walking trails to explore and swimming pool to relax beside.

It's hard to know where to start... the incredible animals roaming freely around the chalets; the stunning chalets themselves equipped with the most aromatic natural, homemade products (from bug repellent to bathroom spray!), enormous beds and a huge private decking area to sit and watch the animals; a picture-postcard swimming pool, idyllic grounds with wildlife from giraffes to gazelles; a scenic indoor and outdoor dining area straight out of a film set and; wonderful, friendly staff! My friend and I loved every minute here and if I hadn't been on a budget or a tight schedule, I would've stayed forever! So beautiful - felt like i was in a dream!
That we only had one night! Would've been good to get some advice upon check-in on how to behave around the animals - had a few hairy moments with a wart hog and some zebras! Also prepare yourself for a few long bumpy roads to reach the lodge - but it's totally worth it!

The breakfast was on point and catered for ages.
The shower in the family room had low pressure or some of the jets appeared blocked.

7.0
Nice location, View, food was great, staffs were nice, bed was comfy. Free complimentary laundry was a bonus.
The food service (especially breakfast) was too slow, sometimes we need to remind or call again. Whenever we ordered chips for room service it's always soggy. They need to fix the main bedroom door at FR1 Chalet. It's more convenient if you rent own car as it's too far away from the city and road wasn't great.

The food was amazing. The staff was very friendly.
We hoped to see more animals on the walking trails

A beautiful peaceful oasis and a relaxing end to our holiday. Loved watching the wildlife strolling past our room in the early morning. The food was delicious and the staff very helpful and welcoming.
The only drawback is the wifi on the property which in some rooms was non existant. For visitors from outside Zambia, this is an important facility.

Welcoming staff, calm quiet and relaxed, yet sophisticated atmosphere. We were lucky to see some animals (antilopes, monkeys, birds, zebra and giraffes) on our walks around the routes the lodge provides. The place is decorated with taste, even the music suited the place and atmosphere perfectly!

Fantastic place to stay in a Lusaka.

The location - being able to see animals every morning while drinking my morning coffee on the porch was a dream! Highly recommend the wine tasting & sunset game drive

Amazing from start to finish, everything gets 10/10 from me
9.0
Food was exceptional, staff fantastic.
Should provide slippers in the room, given the cold stone floor! Would like items on the breakfast buffet to be labelled as I couldn't always tell what was sweet/savoury/vegetarian/etc.
9.0
Staff was super friendly; excellent service; pretty setting; food was excellent; lovely outdoor seatings areas. A great stay.
we though that it was closer to the airport than it was so our stay was too brief - best if you have 2 nights and so much better than staying in Lusaka city
