Heavon on earth
Absolutely amazing trip to destress from reality. Upon arrival into the pongola nature reserve whilst still driving to our destination we were greeted by numerous giraffe buck and warthogs. It was really amazing to see the giraffe so close. Once we got in to the cabin it was heavon. We went in peak summer so the aircons were amazing. One tip carry water and dishwashing liquid. The water was not potable ,all the water is brown even in the shower. U need water to drink and for the kettle. Cleaning services are at an extra charge however if you are going for 2 or 3 nights you dont need a clean up just dishes to wash. Bring the sunlight as the soap here is very watered down. Other than that the place is truly heavon
