Pragtige lodge, rustig, skoon en baie netjies.

Vreeslik mooi lodge. Vriendelike staff - altyd gereed om te help as jy iets kort. Eenhede is skoon en netjies, alles wat jy benodig is daar en nog meer. Dit is baie stil en rustig.

Ons is regtig bly om te hoor dat jy ’n lekker, rustige naweek gehad het en dat jy die lodge skoon en goed ingerig gevind het. Omdat ons so diep in die bosveld is, is dit normaal om insekte soos muggies te kry. Ons probeer altyd om dit so min as moontlik te hou, maar die bos is mos vol wild en natuur, insluitend insekte. Ons waardeer jou terugvoer en sal kyk hoe ons dinge nog beter kan maak vir ons gaste.

Tranquil and clean.

It’s such a lovely location and makes you feel like you are far from the city. The rooms are so clean and ready for you. The gentleman who helped change our gas and start the fire was absolutely amazing! He was friendly and made us feel comfortable. Whoever runs the WhatsApp line needs to work on their customer service; that was the unpleasant part of my stay and the lack of clarity on breakage refund. That, however, did not hinder the experience of the entire place!

IKhaya LamaDube Game Lodge 's response

Dear Mr Mabulana,

Thank you for taking the time to share your valuable feedback with us. We're truly glad to hear you found serenity and comfort at iKhaya LamaDube, and that our staff, particularly their warmth and helpfulness, contributed to making your stay memorable.

Regarding the WhatsApp communication, we strive to ensure all our guests are well-informed and feel supported during their stay. The information provided via WhatsApp is standardised and detailed to complement the in-person briefing received at check-in. This approach ensures all guests have access to essential information, including details about the breakage deposit and other aspects intended to enhance your experience with us. We understand that preferences for communication methods vary, and while the detailed WhatsApp messages aim to be thorough for convenience, we recognise it might not align with everyone's preference. For future stays, please feel welcome to indicate your preferred method of receiving information, and our team will gladly tailor the communication to suit your comfort.

We are committed to continuous improvement and genuinely appreciate your feedback, which guides our efforts to provide an even better experience for all our guests.

We look forward to welcoming you back to iKhaya.

Dit het ongelukkig nie ons verwagtinge ontmoet nie.

Ons het die plekkie baie klein gevind. Die gronde van die lodge was nie netjies genoeg dat mens wou rondstap nie - op die foto's wys dit na groen kort gras. En die uitkyk uit ons eenheid het op die hek uitgekyk asook groot ESKOM drade, wat ook met opset uit die foto's gelos is. Die eenheid was wel baie skoon en mooi binne en die ontvangs was baie professioneel.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Unfortunately, it did not meet our expectations.

We found the place very small. The grounds of the lodge were not tidy enough for one to want to walk around - in the photos it shows green short grass. And the view from our unit looked out on the gate as well as large ESKOM wires, which were also intentionally left out of the photos. The unit was very clean and nice inside and the reception was very professional.

The whole experience was magical and worth it. Really enjoyed my stay.

Really had a great time at iKhaya LamaDube Game Lodge. I stayed in a poolside cottage and I promise you it exceeded my expectations, the unit was clean and had all utensils that we need during our stay. The staff was very lovely, kind, and super helpful, They were available to assist 24/7, which I find very convenient. iKhaya recommends activities to do when you are around. However, I feel that even if you just want to stay indoors, it’s still going to be worth it.

IKhaya LamaDube Game Lodge 's response

Dear Ronewa,

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with us! We are delighted that you enjoyed the comfort of the poolside cottage and that our staff were able to assist you around the clock. Your kind words about our accommodation and the suggested activities mean a lot to us.

We're looking forward to your next stay with us, whether you choose to explore or just relax indoors!

Stunning cottage in Dinokeng.

This beautifully decorated, luxury self-catering cottage had everything you could need for a great stay. The private pool is great for watching the animals roaming past, and everything is luxurious. Unfortunately, it's in quite a remote part of the park and the recent rains have blocked off the river crossing so you need to leave the park and drive quite a distance to enter into the other parts. The occasional dog barking from a nearby property was a bit of a disturbance to the wonderful bush sounds, but luckily it wasn't all the time. The cottage itself though, is relaxing, luxurious, and set in a beautifully private garden with game regularly walking only metres away from the fence.

IKhaya LamaDube Game Lodge 's response

Hello Sue,

Thank you for sharing your experience at iKhaya. It's wonderful to hear that you appreciated the decor, private pool, and close encounters with wildlife.

We understand that the remote location and temporary river crossing issue due to recent rains added an extra adventure to your stay, it's this remote location that adds to the tranquil setting at iKhaya. As for the occasional dog barking, we're truly sorry about this but also glad it didn't take away from your overall enjoyment of the serene setting and the relaxing, luxurious cottage surrounded by a private garden and wildlife.

We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another memorable visit.

Die Hide-away cottage was uitsonderlik! Baie netjies, goed toegerus met alles wat mens nodig het. Pragtige plekkie! Ons sal vir seker weer kom kuier.

Die verwelkoming was hartlik, warm handdoekies en drankie terwyl mens inklok word aangebied. Die dekor van die chalet is modern, skoon en goed uiteengesit om die natuur na binne te bring. Baie oulike swembadjie en kuierarea om lekker te ontspan in die somer.

Baie vriendelike en behulpsame personeel. Pragtige plekkie.

Ons het tuis gegaan in die Safari tent wat 'n lekker ondervinding was. Het niks benodig nie en ons kon lekker die naggeluide veral die Hienas en Jakkalse hoor. Vriendelike personeel het 'n mens dadelik laat welkom voel. Gerus 'n juweel in die bos.

Baie luuks, netjies en uitstekende diens!

Luukse Bos-villa is presies wat die naam sê. Perfekte romantiese wegbreekplek. Diens was uitstekend. Ekstra spesiale behandeling ontvang op ons huweliksherdenking. Die eenheid is baie goed toegerus.

Perfekte wegkomkans.

Dit was absoluut fantasties! Van die uitkyk op die wild tot by die uitstekende netheid van die eenheid. 10/10 vir die netheid! Die absolute stilte en natuurgeluide was die perfekte wegkomkans! Die lodge is naby aan 'n restaurant geleë en maklik toeganklik tot die res van die reservaat! Die fasiliteite is lekker ingerig en modern. Die plek is fantasties opgemaak en uitgelê. Ons sal definitief weer daar bespreek. Ons het dit baie geniet.

Perfect getaway.

It was absolutely fantastic! From the view of the wildlife to the excellent cleanliness of the unit. 10/10 for the cleanliness! The absolute silence and nature sounds were the perfect escape! The lodge is located close to a restaurant and easily accessible to the rest of the reserve! The facilities are nicely furnished and modern. The place is fantastically set up and laid out. We will definitely book there again. We enjoyed it very much.

Was baie beïndruk met alles.

Vandat ons by ontvangs aangemeld het is ons vriendelik behandel. Die personeel was uiters behulpsaam en vriendelik. So ook Gerd en Tienie, die eienaars. Dankie julle was rêrig baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons sal Ikhaya Lama Dube enige tyd aanbeveel. Ons het die diere by die watergat baie geniet. Die vuurtjie en die naggeluide in die aande was die perfekte manier om te vergeet van die stad!

Best ace to escape to!

We live in JHB and wanted a breakaway from the city noise etc. We searched on LekkeSlaap and came across iKaya LamaDube. What a wonderful place. We were met with such professionalism and grace. We were taken to our SafariTent and a full walkthrough of the place were given. We were blown away by the staff's friendliness and the place of course. I can recommend this place as a great go to if you want to escape the city and go to the bush! Keep up the good work and we will definitely see you again soon!

Romantiese geïsoleerde eenheid wat ongelooflik skoon en netjies is. Personeel baie vriendelik en altyd behulpsaam. Dit is ideaal vir daardie romantiese wegbreek met jou geliefde. Die beste is om in die swembadjie te sit met 'n koue glasie en uit te kyk na die verskeidenheid wild wat verby loop.

Beautiful, romantic, staff very friendly indeed, quiet and relaxing. Really enjoyed my birthday weekend.

Price paid for the pool side cottage was really worth it. Cleanliness of the place is really on a top notch. Even when the lights went off the Saturday and Sunday, the staff were there to make sure we were fine and still enjoying ourselves. Suggestion for entrance on De Wagendrift Road, etiquette signage is needed, cause we got lost as there was no signage telling were we should go until we were assisted after calling the lodge.

Rustic and need.

We enjoyed our stay but the hidden cost disclaimer after our booking was secured came as a surprise. Breakage deposit only refundable after 4 week, please note that with the amount of utensils available to ease your stay no inventory was available to double check. Conservation fees not included in the daily rates. Although the booking was self catering, no mosquito repellant was offered even after asking. Other than the above we enjoyed our stay.

IKhaya LamaDube Game Lodge 's response

Dear Thomas Ackerman,
Thank you for taking the time to review your stay! As we aim to constantly enhance our guests’ experiences we have thoroughly investigated your concerns.

We are sorry if the initial 4-week deposit was a bit unsettling to agree to. It is a requirement that our partnered travel agents do include this in their accommodation description. This is a mandatory disclaimer that we put in place to reassure our international guests if there are any delays with their forex refunds. Thankfully we can confirm that this was not an issue for you and that your deposit cleared 6 days after your departure. If you did not get your refund please contact us soonest.

As a self-catering lodge, we do anticipate that our guests come fully prepared with all essentials such as mosquito repellent, however, all units and guests are provided with complimentary repellents which plug into the wall. Providing extra candles or topical repellents would come at a major cost to a small lodge such as iKhaya LamaDube. We imagine that our guests have the same expectations of what they would expect in their units as they would if they were to stay at a camp within the Kruger National Park - the difference, however, is observed in the complimentary welcome drinks, romantic turndowns and staff attending consistently provided by iKhaya LamaDube.

A stay at iKhaya LamaDube should be a relaxing time, it’s for this exact reason why we don’t bog down our guests with long inventory lists to check off. As noted in the review, there is a large number of utensils in each unit. However, a typical inventory list for us at iKhaya LamaDube doesn’t stop there considering the number of appliances, crockery, and creature comforts of the units - more than what is typically expected of a self-catering unit. This makes reviewing an inventory list a tedious task to complete which we leave for the iKhaya LamaDube team to do after every departure and takes an entire afternoon to complete - time we would much rather have our guests spend out on a self-drive route!

On our website, we have stated that “you will be subject to a conservation fee upon entering Dinokeng Game Reserve. This disclaimer is also included on all our affiliated booking agents. On Lekkeslaap in particular you will find this disclaimer in the 'rates section' under 'House Rules'. This cost is not included in the quotation you would have received for your stay because these fees are payable at the main entrances of the reserve. We are not responsible for collecting these fees nor for paying them on behalf of our guests when a booking is made because iKhaya LamaDube is a privately-owned game lodge within the Dinokeng Game Reserve and we prefer that these fees get paid to the reserve directly. These conservation fees are used by the reserve for running and general upkeep.

All the best,
The team at iKhaya LamaDube.

In the Safari Tent it feels like you are somewhere in a remote location in Botswana or Tanzania. The feeling of the establishment and the super friendly staff is superb and out of this world. Cynthia and the rest of the staff is super friendly and kind.

Modern, cosy, luxurious, beautiful, romantic stay in the luxury unit.

We felt spoiled in this beautifully styled unit. Fitted with every possible utensil, a lovely private pool and deck over looking the bush. We were even lucky enough to have a visit from a rhino and her calf. A little private oasis.

Romantiese, chic verblyf ‘n klipgooi van Pretoria.

Hierdie luukse selfsorgvillas is ons nuwe huis-weg-van-die-huis. Ontsettende fyn detail in dekor en goed deurdenkde huisplan en ligging. Dié villas is privaat, romanties en ingerig met elke moontlike toebehoor/kombuisgereedskap wat jy kan nodig kry. Lieflike tafels word vir jou gedek in jou villa - een in jou privaat boma en die ander by jou privaat swembad. Wild kan besigtig word vanaf die gemak van jou stoep/swembad/bed siende dat daar ‘n watergat slegs 30 m ver geleë is. Die personeel is behulpsaam. Niks is te veel moeite nie. Ek sal hierdie verblyf met ‘n oop gemoed aanbeveel vir enigeen.

Romantic, chic accommodation a stone's throw from Pretoria.

These luxury self-catering villas are our new home-away-from-home. Amazing fine detail in decor and well thought out house plan and location. These villas are private, romantic and furnished with every possible accessory/kitchen utensil you could possibly need. Lovely tables are set for you in your villa - one in your private boma and the other by your private pool. Game can be viewed from the comfort of your porch/swimming pool/bed seeing that there is a water hole only 30 m away. The staff is helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone with an open mind.

IKhaya LamaDube Game Lodge - luukse eenheid is pragtig. Wow, wow, wow. Dis was ons 20ste anniversary is ontvang met koue lappie en glas sap by ontvangs. By die eenheid was die bed mooi versier met 'n hartjie en daar is buite twee tafels gedek met rooi en wit en sjampanje op ys. Ons het seker nie eers 2 ure op die stoep gesit nie toe kom daar 'n stuk van omtrent 10 koedoebulle na die watergat reg voor ons stoep. Die plek is super netjies en skoon.

Ontvangs was vriendelik. Mense is baie behulpsaam. Die plekkie was elke dag mooi skoongemaak. Die dek is rustig en die sonsondergang was elke aand prentjiemooi. Die stortwater was ’n probleem maar ons is ook goed bygestaan met ’n ander opsie. Veilig.

Hierdie was beslis 'n naweek wat ek en my man net kon agteroor sit en ontspan, die stilte was bekoorlik. Ons was hartlik ontvang met 'n glasie lemoensap en net so welkom gevoel. Ons het in 'n pragtige safari-tent gebly en ook 'n wildrit besigtig wat net so opwindend was. Ons sal beslis enige tyd weer terug gaan, om uit die stad te kom en jou kop skoon te kry

Baie rustige en skoon plek, lekker naby aan Pretoria. Eienaar sowel as die werkers vreeslik vriendelik.

'n Baie rustige plek met eenhede wat baie goed toegerus is, kan regtig net jou kos en klere saamvat. Die werkers was vreeslik vriendelik en dit was presies wat ons wou gehad het. Hulle doen baie moeite met klein ekstra dinge soos 'n vuur wat elke dag gepak word met stokkies en gras om dit vir jou makliker te maak. Ook elke dag 'n paraffienlamp gekry by die boma en tot 'n "doom prop" vir die muskiete (alhoewel ons nie nodig gehad het om dit te gebruik nie). Die toegangspaaie kan dalk 'n probleem wees vir plat karre. Baie geniet en sal beslis weer soontoe gaan!

Very quiet and clean place, nice and close to Pretoria. Owner as well as the workers very friendly.

A very peaceful place with units that are very well equipped, can really only take your food and clothes. The workers were extremely friendly and it was exactly what we wanted. They put a lot of effort into little extras like a fire packed with sticks and grass every day to make it easier for you. Also got a paraffin lamp every day at the boma and a "doom plug" for the mosquitoes (although we didn't need to use it). The access roads may be a problem for flat cars. Really enjoyed and will definitely go there again!

Ongelooflike rustige ervaring in die natuur!

Ons was dadelik verlief op ons verblyf in die rondawel in die natuur en die boma was 'n groot vreugde, lekker privaat en die vuur in die aande was wonderlik! Die personeel was ongelooflik, kom dek vir ons 'n "romantiese tafel". Ons was verstom! Gerd en Tienie het soveel moeite gedoen tydens die wildritte, die natuur is lekker ruig en al die diere was spekvet en gesond. Ons kom definitief weer kuier in die rondawel.

Unbelievably peaceful experience in nature!

We immediately fell in love with our accommodation in the rondavel in nature and the boma was a joy, nice and private, and the fire at night was wonderful! The staff was wonderful, they set us a romantic table. We were speechless! Gerd and Tienie went through so much effort during the game drives, the nature is nice and lush and all the animals were fat and healthy. We'll definitely come stay here again.

Quiet weekend break.

We stayed in the cottage, reception was warm and welcoming. The owners are very hospitable and willing to assist with any needs required. We went for a Self-drive through the bush all day on the Saturday and afterwards stopped at the local watering hole down the road who serves craft beer brewed on premises. We arrived back at our cottage and the staff had set up the boma for a romantic evening, table set with candles and champagne glasses and fire pit prepped (a very welcomed surprise). Went on the Sunday morning for a game drive with the owners, they are passionate and knowledgeable about the bush. All in all a lovely weekend break.

It was an experience beyond expectation! Thank you Gerd, Tienie and Maartin.

Our stay at Ikhaya was excellent! Stunning accommodation, friendly staff, flexible arrangements to meet our needs. The game drive was the best! Tracking down the lions and watching a "kill" was beyond what we expected to see. Thanks to Tienie who shared her passion for the "veld" and animals. At Ikhaya the game drive is highly recommended. It's an experience during which we could appreciate "koffie with a skop", the beauty of nature and the awesome animals of Dinokeng.

Dit was die beste naweek ooit.

Dit was die beste ooit. Die mense het uit hulle pad gegaan om ons te bederf. Alles was so netjies, skoon en rustig. Ek sal beslis weer daar bespreek, en dit aanbeveel vir ander. Nogmaals dankie.

Rustig en stil.

Ons het ons naweek weg baie geniet - dis heerlik stil en die verblyf is regtig baie gemaklik. En eintlik net 'n uur van Pretoria af. Sal vir seker weer gaan!

Dit was baie aangenaam en die personeel was baie vriendelik.

Dit was 'n heerlike wegbreeknaweek naby aan die huis. Die omgewing was pragtig en die wild lekker volop.

Ons het ontspan en die rustigheid ervaar.

Verblyf was netjies skoon en hulle gee aandag aan klein detail. Personeel was baie vriendelik en ons het spesiaal gevoel. Perfeke wegbreek vir 'n paartjie wat lief is vir die natuur.

Heerlik ontspan!

Ons het heerlik gerus in goed toegeruste log cabin. Baie rustig en 'n bonus is die wild wat voor jou eenheid wei. Die lapa was vir ons 'n plus punt - om elke aand langs 'n vuurtjie te kuier en die stilte van die veld te kan ervaar en nie eens te praat van die sterre hemel nie! Die gasheer Gerd en gasvrou Tienie is baie aangename mense en laat jou sommer tuis voel. Regtig 'n plek om aan te beveel.

Wonderfully relaxing!

We got some great rest at this well-equipped log cabin. So peaceful and the game grazing in front of the unit is such a nice surprise. The lapa was great too - we had a great time by the fire every night and we experienced the peace and quiet of the veld, not to mention the starry sky! Gerd and Tiene were lovely and they make you feel at home. I definitely recommend this place.

Wonderlike gaste en personeel! Hulle doen soveel moeite! Dankie!

Ons het dit vreeslik geniet! Ook was dit die beste wildrit wat ons nog gehad het! Dankie ook vir die privaatheid! Elkeen het sy eie boma en ons sal dit aanbeveel vir paartjies wat alleentyd nodig het! Tonne dankie!

Doodstil, geen steurings, het heerlik ontspan.

Die log cabin was baie gerieflik en goed toegerus, boma en dek ideaal, maar daar was egter te veel bome in die pad om die watergat te kan sien. Baie wild egter rondom die kamp om te geniet.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Dead quiet, no disturbances, had a great time relaxing.

The log cabin was very comfortable and well equipped, boma and deck ideal, but there were too many trees in the way to be able to see the water hole. However, plenty of wildlife around the camp to enjoy.
