Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This place is heaven on earth. The rooms are large and stunningly well decorated. The staff is amazing. It's run like a high end game safari destination. Lots to see on the property's large private reserve. You won't find the diversity and huge numbers of game available in Kruger, Botswana, Namibia, etc. This is more of a place for people who have already had their serious safari experience and are looking for a gorgeous property for rest and relaxing and feeling pampered.

My stay was fantastic but I was shocked by the breakfast waiters, they wiped my cup rim clean with a finger in front of me, some rubbed their faces and noses, some hocked back phlegm in a rude way, what a pity they seemed to be completely untrained in basic waiter hygiene, otherwise all great

Eine Oase

Einziger minus Punkt wahr, dass uns im Vorfeld nicht mitgeteilt wurde, dass zu dieser Zeit eine "Kinderwoche" war. D.h. es hatte etwas viele Kinder welche sogar beim Lunch direkt daneben lautstark im Pool spielten....
