excellent relaxing spot with amazing views

The rooms and views are amazing. It's such a relaxing place and it's hard to fault anything. You know it's a wildlife place but didn't expect a game drive so that's a bonus although obviously no predators. Food is really really good although could give you a break after each meal, felt a little rushed. Rooms are spacious with separate bathrooms for bath and shower. Very large. Small gripe, half a bottle of wine was in the fridge rather than a new one

Excellent Views

This is a real treat on the eastern cape. The architecture is stunning and the coastal views amaze. The rate includes 3 excellent meals (B, L , D) and the choices were well thought out and of great quality. You cannot possibly go hungry. There are a ton of buck in many species, a few giraffe and rhino. A fantastic experience.

Awesome safari lodge for softies

Fabulous accommodation (stayed in Lodge) If you are used to safari type game drives and want that kind of excitement then its probably not for you, but bear in mind, if you get a deal, the cost can be a lot less here The location is stunning-overlooking a vast beach with animals roaming freely between it and the lodges but beware if you want to swim there as surf & rip tides could be a problem on the unguarded beach. The staff here are so friendly and can't do enough to help you get the most from your stay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Es ist ein hervorragendes Ressort mit täglich zwei Game Drives (es gibt hier nicht die Big 5!). Der Fokus liegt auf Luxus und Entspannung, nicht unbedingt auf Tieren, wobei es davon natürlich auch genug gibt ( Giraffen, Zebras, Gnus, Affen, Antilopen...) Das Personal kümmert sich um alles, ist immer aufmerksam und flexibel. Das Essen ist sehr gut ( 3 Mahlzeiten am Tag sind fast schon zu viel), es gibt auch die Möglichkeit am traumhaften und einsamen Strand zu lunchen, einfach hervorragend. Natürlich ist der Preis sehr stolz, aber es lohnt sich, da wirklich alle Game Drives, Mahlzeiten, Getränke etc. Enthalten sind - zu empfehlen ist die Premium Suite mit phantastischem Blick und sehr schöner Einrichtung

Da Beste vom Besten

Wahnsinnslage, nur 10 Zimmer/Bungalows, dadurch eine sehr private Atmosphäre. Super leckeres Essen, 9km Strand nur für sich allein. Spannende tolle Game drives (Nashorn mit Jungem, Giraffen beim Picknick, Zebras, Gnus, diverse Gazellen). Besser geht's nicht
