We cannot recommend enough!
We loved everything about this place and wish we could have stayed longer. We felt very privileged to be one of the very few guests and the team went above and beyond to exceed our expectations. A special mention to our guide Lucas, without whom this experience wouldn’t have been the same. His passion for the wildlife was remarkable and really transpired. Jeffrey, our tracker, completed perfectly the game drive pair. We hope to see them again in the future and highly recommend to book games with those guys.

An unforgettable safari experience with exceptional guides, world-class service, and stunning lodge design — pure perfec
An absolutely stunning lodge — beautifully designed with elegant suites and tasteful African-inspired art throughout. Our game drives with Julian were the highlight: he was incredibly enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and full of fascinating stories about wildlife and South Africa itself. Food and service were truly world-class, with a great selection of wines to choose from.
The fitness and spa area is quite small and could benefit from some renovation and more up-to-date equipment.

An absolute gem hidden in the South African Bush
Everything was amazing. The staff, the food, the rooms, the views, and the guides/trackers were outstanding and exceeded all our expectations. The fact that there are only 8 cottages means that you as well get to know all your fellow travelers.

Everyone was so welcoming and attentive. The rooms are unique, functional, and beautiful. The food was wonderful. The safari drives were informative and fun. Julian was our driver and Hervert was our scout. They were both awesome. Richmond was an awesome butler and he took care of our Every need. Molly, Pfume, Pretty, Chef, Kevin, Mary, everyone including Colin, the manager made sure we were comfortable, safe, and taken care of. This was a wonderful experience. We saw the big 5 in 2 days and when we say we saw them we were within feet of them. Amazing. This trip will be etched in our memories forever.
