Amazing space.

The tented camp is a beautiful space - Jasper was friendly and helpful and kept the place really clean despite the sand and mud. The food at the lodge was also really good and good value for money.

Baie goeie oornag-akkommodasie!

Die restaurant se ure is goed. Ek kon nog laat die aand ete bestel. Die kos was heerlik! Die kamers is skoon en gerieflik. Baie goeie oornaggeleentheid.

Very good overnight accommodation!

The restaurant's hours are good. I could still order dinner late in the evening. The food was delicious! The rooms are clean and comfortable. Very good overnight stay.

Gerieflik ingerig.

Die tentkamp is ver genoeg van die grootpad dat mens dit nie kan hoor nie. Dis 'n gerieflike kamp in die natuur.

Comfortably furnished.

The tent camp is far enough away from the highway that one cannot hear. It's a comfortable camp in nature.

Nice place all around, but could be better with a little attention to detail.

The bathroom was not the cleanest and toilet seat smelled.

Dis nie 'n Lodge nie, dis oornag akkomodasie.

Ons was baie teleurgesteld met die sogenaamde Lodge. Dit is oornag akkomodasie, nie 'n Lodge nie. Daar is geen braaigeriewe of swembad soos wat op die weblad geadverteer word nie. Die bestuur het ons na die tentekamp geskuif teen geen ekstra koste en ek sal dit baie eerder aanbeveel.

It's not a Lodge, it's overnight accommodation.

We were very disappointed with the so called Lodge. This is overnight accommodation, not a Lodge. There are no braai facilities or swimming pool as advertised on the website. The management moved us to the tented camp at no extra cost and I would highly recommend it.

The shower had hot water and the bed was clean.

The factory next door was very noisy until 20:00.

Terrible customer service.

Worst customer service ever. Not once did the lodge contact us before or during our stay to ensure that we're okay. I made the booking and I didn't receive any confirmation from the lodge, I ended up calling them to ensure that the booking was secured. When we got to the lodge we got lost a bit and we called in- nobody called us back to ensure that we were okay. We didn't have electricity on Friday night, which also affected the water supply. Again nobody called us to explain the situation and to ensure that we at least had candles or a load shedding lamp. The thatch didn't seem to have been treated as we found many arachnids and bugs in our room. During the whole experience we felt like we weren't welcome there as nobody checked up on us, except for when we asked the cleaner for something. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone- and I most certainly will never go back there.

Hi Ma'am,
I am very sorry about the experience that you had. During that time our Lodge Manageress had resigned and I took over her duties. As I was only handling the admin at that stage I was not aware of the problems at the lodge rooms. We were also experiencing load-shedding and when there is no electricity our water pumps don't work.
Since I heard about your review I bought battery powered lamps as well as extra candles for when there is no electricity and have placed load shedding schedules in the rooms when it is needed.
Thank you for your feedback as there is always room for improvement.
Have a lovely day.

We were very pleased to find such great accommodation en route from SA through Botswana to Zimbabwe.

Our booking was made online as we travelled, and we were welcomed upon arrival. We spent a quiet night there; the facilities are top notch and highly recommended.

In die pad en alleen.

Toe ons daar aankom het niemand van ons booking geweet nie. Hoofkantoor het nie laat weet nie. Al die personeel was op verlof. Die hekwag het 'n ou geroep en ons in 'n kamer gesit. Ons het alleen gevoel en half in die pad en 'n las.

Lonely and in the road.

When we arrived nobody knew about our booking. The main office didn't let them know. All the staff were on leave. The security guard called someone to let us into our room. We felt lonely, and in the way, and a burden.
