Luxury woodland getaway!
Very nice, luxurious lodge. They accommodated us very well with our 4-month-old baby boy. The presidential suite was breathtakingly beautiful. Only wished we could have used a fireplace which was not possible, the water pressure for shower and bath was bad with little hot water and with no solar panels we could not enjoy the beautiful sunrise with a hot coffee early in the morning on the deck during loadshedding . Hearing the lions every day was definitely a highlight of the lodge. Really enjoyed the Spa - would just like to have nice scenery in that nice woodland. Food was very nice - would just think for the price per night there wouldn't be limits on the breakfast choices. It was a nice, luxurious getaway.

Geen teenwoordigheid van eienaar nie, dus geen aandag aan enige detail nie.

No presence of owner, so no attention to any detail.
Place needs attention. Like e.g. on the main deck the planks lift and my wife tripped over them and almost fell. We also think with our experience at other 5-star lodges that the lodge falls far short.

Most amazing experience/honeymoon ever!
My wife and I were at Zwahili for our honeymoon. We had been to many lodges in the past, but Zwahili stood head and shoulders above them all. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. They went out of their way on more than one occasion to make our time there super special. The food was incredibly delicious. The game drives with Jannie, the game ranger were unforgettable, I have never met anyone with such knowledge and passion for his work and nature. Zwahili is truly a special lodge to visit and we will definitely be going back again and again.

Sal aanbeveel, maar nie regtig waarde vir geld as daar nie 'n afslagprys is nie, nie baie wildsoorte om te sien nie.

Translate to English.
Would recommend, but not really value for money if there is no discount price, not a lot of wildlife to see.
With the discount price it was OK, very nice rooms and good food, not many kinds of wildlife to see, so it's too expensive without the discount price and if the full price is to be paid it's not really value for money.

Very pleasant and beautiful vacation spot. The food was excellent and the service first class. It's the ideal place to just unpack and rest. You don't have to worry about anything: meals, game drives, a spa, everything helps you to rest in a short time. All the staff were friendly and helpful and made it very pleasant to rest here.

An incredibly peaceful place with the best food ever.
The staff are very professional and friendly and the food was top notch. The tranquility of the lodge was the biggest attraction for us. The men who do the game drives know their story and I was impressed with their knowledge of the field and animals. Two days were too little. Perhaps only one negative point: The costs for the average SA tourist I would think are just too high. Even with the 40% discount, one can easily visit Mauritius for 7 days for the same rate. In any case, we had a great time at Zwahili, thank you.

Breathtaking scenery.
It was a true gem in the bushveld. You are carried on the hands from the moment you drive through the gates, until you reluctantly have to leave paradise. Nothing is too much trouble and every request is carried out with a smile. The staff is very friendly. The food is outstanding. The game drives also stand out as a must-do experience. The ranger, Basil, ensures an unforgettable hour in nature with his extensive knowledge of the animals, birds and even the trees and plants of the area. The farm is definitely worth a second and even third visit.

What a wonderful getaway for me and my husband. We stayed two nights, but truly as rested as a week's holiday. Fantastic service, nothing was too much trouble and every one of the staff were so warm. The natural beauty was unforgettable, wildlife abundant, with a veld git who enjoyed every moment with us as if it was his first time. His general knowledge about wildlife is noteworthy. Every meal was something to look forward to, tasty and very well prepared. How I don't miss those picturesque sunsets, with only the woodland sounds and peace in the evening breeze!
