The stay at this lodge was simply amazing! Our river suite was beautifully rustic yet chic, with all the amenities we needed. The African-style decoration throughout the common areas added to the authentic experience. The food was fantastic and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The game drives were unforgettable, offering a unique and close encounter with the animals. Highly recommended for a mind-blowing stay!

As trekkers and a group of friends, we loved the beautifully located lodge on the river, with a lake nearby to watch hippos. the game drives with our knowledgeable guides were incredible, and we saw elephants, lions, giraffe, zebra. the staff, including our guide and tracker, Evans and Lugwig, made us feel comfortable and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. the rooms were stunning and had everything we needed.
Felt totally relaxed, no complaints at all.

We had an incredible stay at this lodge. the Luxury Suite was spotless, with a spacious bathroom and a comfortable bed. the staff couldn't have been friendlier, and the guides were knowledgeable and made sure we saw all the animals we wanted to. the highlight was the morning and evening game drives, where we were lucky enough to spot the BIG 5 and more. the food, especially the breakfast, was delicious and had a wide variety of options.
The presence of monkeys around the lodge made sitting out on the balcony a bit uncomfortable.

The view of elephants and grazing antelope from the spacious deck? Absolutely breathtaking! The enchanting view over the river? A natural treasure! And free WiFi? Finally, I can post pictures of me with the wild animals and make all my friends jealous!
Oh, what a shame, there was absolutely nothing that I didn't like about my stay. It was just perfect.

Wow, what an incredible experience! The guides at this place are top-notch, super knowledgeable and friendly. The hotel is in the perfect location, right in the middle of a nature reserve, so you really feel like you're close to nature. And let me tell you, the rooms are absolutely beautiful, and the food is delicious. The hotel even has two pools for you to relax and cool off in.
Honestly, I struggled to find anything negative about this place. The only thing I can think of is that the food might be a bit too fancy for kids.
