This is a great place to spend a couple of nights before your flight. The complementary pick-up was very smooth as was the drop off. The relaxed atmosphere, great food and wonderful grounds were very welcome for an extended stopover. Price was also very competitive.

This is the best game lodge destination I’ve been to. I highly recommend this property. Louise, Judy and Alice made my 4 day stay a relaxing time. They went out of their way to ensure my stay was peaceful after a stressful couple of weeks travelling. If you’re looking for some downtime at a game lodge near the airport than make your reservation at bird and game lodge . See you all again in a few weeks!

Louise came to pick us up at the airport within 10 minutes of phoning. Super quick. Quick check-in and Louise was very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. The room was exactly what we needed for 1 night and warm. Staff were on hand to offer help and guidance. I would recommend this property and will stay next time.

Room was adequate for a cheap price. Helpful n very friendly hotel staff. They helped me get a personal driver for touring. Cool to see some animals running around the grounds. FREE breakfast too! Wasn’t so keen about having to run the hot water in the sink n shower for a few minutes in order to get hot water, but it only took a few minutes, just a small minor inconvenience.

Stayed here on our arrival to South Africa 16 days ago. Water heater problems and was told that they were having it fixed. Leaving for home and decided to return to the hotel for our departure, hot water was not working properly. 5 minutes into your shower and no hot water, only heat in our room was a small electric heater which was insufficient at keeping the room warm.We stayed in a safari tent that was warmer. Only food available was breakfast and that from 7:00 till 10:00. No ac in the rooms not that we needed it.
