- "Everything - from the moment you arrive you are taken care of to an exceptional standard. During my stay Sam was the manager on duty and he was brilliant. In addition to the unique location, the service is what really sets this place apart. The staff were all local which I really appreciated - always ready to help with a smile. The whole setting is just incredible - you won’t regret staying here!" - "What an unforgettable experience! The rooms have been turned into such comfortable spaces, with incredible views on the area. There is simply no way not to catch some live action. I'd forgotten that the rooms had bath tubs so that was an additional treat; I took a couple of baths, and watched life unfold for nearly an hour. The rest of the facilities were top notch: from the restaurant to the cars that took us one on morning and afternoon drives. The meals were delicious and we got to try a variety of meats that we'd never tried before (Kudu, Warthog, etc). What really made this stay extraordinary is the attention to each guest's comfort. We were assigned a couple of people that assisted us with our meals each and everyday (Sma, Polite), as well as a dedicated driver (Lisa) who really made our stay as comfortable as possible. Not to mention so many other people that really went above and beyond. We would love to, and hope that we will be able to come back again."
