    The staff at the lodge was absolutely wonderful – friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. The food was incredibly delicious, some of the best we’ve had, making each meal memorable. Our rooms were comfortable; although there was no air...

    We stayed in a "standard twin room" and it was quite lovely. Meals were delicious. Staff were relaxed-professional.

    Location was good. So much so that we did not feel the need to go on a game drive. Staff were friendly and efficient, especially Alpa. She deserves a medal. Nothing was too much trouble and nice to chat with.
