The place is serene and quiet, and you only hear birds singing, and warthog visited us on our breakfast time. The crockery and cutlery were very good and clean. We enjoyed our stay there.
The bed on the main bedroom was so plush and very comfortable.
Very spacious and great attention to details on bedding and bathrooms. Very comfortable. The soaps and lotions were amazing. The pool over looking the reserve was great. We were able to spot lots of wildlife and even saw lions and Elephant while we were there. Would have loved to stay for longer. Very peaceful also.
Regarding the accommodation, the luxury, well equipped kitchen, open living areas for comfort and the breathtaking views over the Kruger Park. Friendly and helpful staff who make you feel at home. Game drive was a true African experience.
It is absolutely magical to stay at Sweni lodge in the beautiful African bush.
It is peaceful and quiet.
We also enjoyed fabulous game drives with LeoVantage Safari's and the most knowledgeable guide, Dave. Amazing to experience the splendor of Africa, only a few hours' drive from Johannesburg.
Our host, Glen, is friendly, helpful and proactive. We were always informed and felt very welcome.
A stay we can recommend any day.
Stunning view of the Crocodile River, peaceful & quiet area. We loved the openness of kitchen//lounge area and the spacious, all ensuite rooms. Perfect holiday home.
Stylish understated luxury beautifully incorporating art, wood and plants. Fabulous accommodation, seating and dining areas all with brilliant views. Superb blend of style and luxurious outdoor living connected to the bushveld.
