very good stay - most staff friendly and courteous, especially the restaurant and bar personnel. Room was clean and comfortable and looked out onto the water hole - saw a lot of game - which was a great bonus. Nice bath tub. Restaurant food selection and preparation was of a good standard. I liked the museum and the spa treatment we had was excellent. Will most likely be back

One word “Amazing “ We will be back to this resort that pampered us all week, from the tours to the dining all top notch. The rangers that work with the animals and guides for the hikes are in love with their job and it shows. Can’t say enough about this place

Our stay at this lodge is always amazing. The stuff is extremely friendly and professional. The actual grounds are super pretty. It's a calming environment. Our baby also loved it. Thank you to the restaurant staff always go the extra mile to make our baby happy. Only issue is the wifi, but it wasn't the end of the world. We actually appreciate the downtime.

Property is exquisite. I just had a problem with pests on my roof. Room 34a has rats which kept scratching the ceiling in the early hours which woke me and my husband up.
