The size of the lodge is bigger than expected, so peaceful, spacious and well laid out. Brilliant location, close enough to all activities, but secluded enough to just relax and enjoy every moment. The lodges on the property are so spaced out, you barely see another person. Perfect place to just relax and enjoy down time in the bush. Nadia is an exceptional host, warm, friendly and willing to accommodate your needs.
Nothing.

A beautifully furnished lodge with everything you need, including an air fryer, which is always a bonus when travelling with a baby. It felt like having our own special retreat in the forest.
Our host, Nadia, was incredibly responsive and welcoming. She greeted us with drinks on arrival and was there to see us off when we left.
The location is excellent, with lovely walks around the estate and easy access to Hluhluwe for early-morning game drives. A wonderful and relaxing stay.

The host was very welcoming, warm and friendly. She basically gave us the run of the place. There was a maid service everyday. The quality of the furnishing was beyond expectation. Some of the extra specials was: on arrival: cold face cloths and welcome drinks , the host waiting for us way beyond the 2:30 check-in. The body lotion, bath salts and wash ( not in little hotel bottles) 500ml bottles. Wifi and Netflix provided. The out door shower was an amazing and unique touch for us. unfortunately we had a short stay and we're away for the full days on game drives, so we could not take advantage of the exceptional quality of accommodation and location. Overall a great experience worth revisiting
There is very few offerings in respect of entertainment outside of the farm l. Restaurants were limited to say the least

Comfy beds
Reserve staff especially helpful when car stuck in the mud.
Some issues with the toilet plumbing and electricity in the outside bedroom, mosquito nets didn’t go round the beds when made into doubles and no net provided for the cot.
