    Thanks to all involved at Mohlabetsi for an unforgettable stay!

    Property was very clean, well provisioned and furnished with luxury finishes and comfortable bedrooms. Although self-catering, the on-site staff were friendly and very efficient - went out of their way to ensure we had a comfortable stay. Game drives were well orchestrated with knowledgeable guide - Weather was extremely wet, so some areas were closed to drives, but still enjoyed each excursion.

    LE RANGER MR JANKOU ETAIT PLUS BEAU QUE MOI .... 😂

    Lodge magnifique avec vue sur le bush.La réserve est grande avec de nombreux point d'eau et beaucoup de zones ouvertes qui permettent de mieux voir les nombreux animaux. Le personnel de maison est trés discret cela permet de se sentir vraiment chez soi.Le Ranger qui nous accompagner etait super Genial et très professionnelle.Pour resumer vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés.

    Luxury and convenience in the bush

    This self-catering lodge is a real gem. Very well appointed and equipped with everything we needed. Game drives were excellent. The main building is spacious and airy. It includes an open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining area with a viewing deck overlooking the stream and a waterhole. Swimming pool and BBQ off to one side. The are three bedrooms in one block and two standalone bedrooms all with en suite bathrooms. Definitely the best self-catering lodge I have stayed at in this area.

    One of the bedrooms is a loft room with a downstairs bathroom. Not a problem - but may not be ideal for older folks like us. Did not detract at all from our visit.

    We stayed at 8 different locations on our holiday and many of the guests rated Mohlabetsi their favourite!

    The communal areas were exceptional! Loved the indoor/outdoor bar and the game-viewing vehicle was very comfy. Lucky, Raymond and Mavis were amazing 😌

    Some guests found the outdoor showering a tad chilly but I thought they were cool.

    Tolles Erlebnis, gerne wieder

    Diese Lodge kann man wirklich uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Man ist ganz alleine in einem kleinen Camp mitten im Nationalpark an einem Wasserloch. Pro Tag gibt es 2 private Safaris, was alleine schon mehr wert ist als der Übernachtungspreis. On top gibt es 2 Angestellte die einem jeden Wunsch von den Augen ablesen. Wir würden jederzeit wieder buchen.

    Wir haben den Wäscheservice genutzt. Dieser war immens teuer und steht in keinem Verhältnis zur Leistung. Davon würde ich also abraten. Leider gab es im Vorfeld keine Information über den Preis, trotz mehrmaliger Nachfrage.
