Had a great time. The concept of the house is beautiful. We will go again!
Upgrades to the house are needed, the beds do sleep well and the braai facilities are good. Pool is a nice size for laughing and hanging out, and we really enjoyed the porch. There are a few kitchen "tools" that are lacking, such as a roasting pan and bread board. Chairs outside are also no longer 100% comfortable.

Nice, but could be better.
Although we received a very warm welcome from Devon and the food was delicious, the accommodation was a disappointment. The photos on the page are misleading and the whole resort needs a serious upgrade. The wooden paths to your tent are broken. The tent's floor has a hump in the middle of the room. The roof of the tents is very dirty and full of spots. However, the linen was beautifully clean and tidy.

We loved relaxing at Ngama, excellent service and delicious food!
My wife and I spent some time here and we thoroughly enjoyed it, will come again. The service was excellent and the breakfast was delicious. The rooms are well-equipped for mosquitoes and very safe. We loved the outdoor shower with zebras and wildebeest all around you. It was an incredible experience and we will go again. There are two things I would like to mention to prospective guests. Go with a vehicle with high ground clearance, the gravel road can damage the undercarriage of your car. If it's very hot, take a cooler bag with drinks. They give you water, but it's room temperature and there was no fridge in our unit. It is a bushveld holiday after all, they do have loads of drinks for sale if you don't want to take your own with. Wonderful accommodation! Give it a try. There aren't that many activities on the premises, but if you like game, there will be more than enough for you to do in and around the area.

It was fantastic. The people were so friendly and we soon felt at home!
We were very kindly received with ice cold drinks. They were so helpful with unpacking and driving to the tent. The tent is very nicely furnished with a king-size bed and bathroom. The food is delicious - we got so fat in the 3 days! It's lovely and peaceful there. There are hiking trails for those who like walking or nice shade trees around the tent and a splash pool outside the restaurant. I recommend the place to everyone who likes nature and silence. That's what we enjoyed the most there! It is close to many attractions such as the boat on the Blyde dam and Kapama Safari Lodge for a game drive. It's breathtaking with a sunrise or sunset! The place is value for money! Feel free to go and experience it yourself.

Indescribable Forest Stay
Unfortunately we could only stay one night. Tent equipped with everything one's heart desires. Best is NO cellphone reception, yikes. Well WiFi in the reception areas for the internet addicts. The dinner around the BOMA was top notch. Just too much. Even packed food packs for us because we fell on the road at 05H00 the next morning. They DEFINITELY see me again.

A wonderful and peaceful weekend with excellent and personal service!
A beautiful and peaceful getaway with excellent and personal service. However, could not lock our unit which is an issue for security even though there is a safe in the unit. There is also no air cooling in the units and the Lowveld's oppressive heat makes it uncomfortable. However, Devon and his wife went out of their way to make our time romantic and special.

Devin and his band were fantastic hosts and provided a romantic atmosphere. The meals were carefully prepared and the accommodation was looked after to the last detail. The tents are luxurious and safe. We went for a morning walk through a part of the reserve... you then realize that you share your living space with giraffe, zebra etc. Share.
