Facilities are run down, low maintenance.
Pool is clean but water level too low for the pool pump. Grass must please be cut. Customer service was good.

Verblyf netjies, kos ok - ontbyt kan verbeter, baie geraas (musiek van gaste en van buite) deur die nag vanaf vroeg tot laat in die aand.

Accommodation neat, food ok - breakfast could improve, a lot of noise (music from guests and from outside) throughout the night from early to late in the evening.
Stay was ok, would appreciate coffee/tea in room, kitchen closes 3 hours. A lot of noise throughout the night, guests who play music until late, nearby taverns who play music throughout the night and until early morning - could not appreciate night sounds.

Also good again after 2 years.
In 2015 we were there for 5 days, now for three days. We didn't get the rondavel we had asked for, but this was also ok. Spacious, good bed. Alas, a pity that the view is obstructed by the construction of the tents. Well, there are still quite a lot of animals that roam freely there. Breakfast is very good. Have dinner that is worth de Boma served is ample and of good quality. All in all had a few nice days.

It was great and as it appears on the web.
The reception was excellent and professional. The people were all very friendly and helpful. When we made a request to be moved closer it was arranged within minutes. The dinner was stylish and very tasty. Once again the staff were at their post and the cook himself was also present. The breakfast was also well presented and tasty. Management is available at all times for any eventuality. I would book there again anytime.

Pleasant stay with breakfast and delicious dinners in the Boma! Sultry, hot nights - just fan. Nice staff.
Recommended as good value for money with delicious meals included. Boma area is a nice place to visit with the bar and swimming pool. Excellent road to Orpenhek.

Wonderful stay.
We had 5 nights in the lodge. It was a beautiful rondavel with good facilities, space and peace. The car easily next to the door and at the same time all kinds of animals walking in front of the roundabout. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The facilities such as the bar and restaurant are excellent and well equipped. You get a lot of value for your money and we hope to come back in the future if possible. We heartily recommend Timbavati Safari Lodge.

Kan nie aanbeveel as waarde vir geld nie.

Cannot recommend as value for money.
Room very tidy, but a kettle and some cups would have made a big difference. We only had one choice for dinner. R220 for braai meat and porridge is a bit much.

Swak.

Weak.
Weak, pathetic. There was loud music 24 hours a day coming from across the road. The dining hall was dirty and there is no dinner in a boma or by the pool as they advertise. The meals were poor. Breakfast was very late and the dinner was just plain "stew". Then they call it "african cuisine". I would not recommend the place to anyone at all, much less visit again myself.

Accommodation was good and staff friendly and helpful.
It's a bit expensive for what you get. The lodge is located right next to the main road to Orpen Gate. On the opposite side of the road there is a residential area where a lot of noise came from such as loud music and cars speeding. The rondavels need a makeover, especially the shower floor is soapy. The mattress we slept on was worn out and in poor condition. I don't believe there is anyone who wouldn't have a sore back after sleeping on it. Then there were also some of the guests who couldn't behave at all and made a lot of noise. I believe that for the money I paid there I could definitely have gotten something better. Sorry but that's how I feel about it.
