“kleine "Boutique"-Lodge mit absoluter Wohlfühl-Qualität”
From the instant we stepped in and were greeted so warmly, we knew we’d chosen the right lodge. A handful of round houses sit inside a lush garden that frames a cozy dining area with a fire pit; behind that is a communal pavilion with a lounge and library where you can relax with a welcome drink while checking in and learning about the lodge’s activities. At the edge of the lodge, a terrace with sun loungers offers a fantastic valley view over the river, where a herd of elephants passed right by—binoculars are a must because there’s plenty to spot even from there, and the staff happily served us dinner there too. The round huts feel larger inside than they appear from the outside, with space for a bathtub in addition to a shower and double washbasins. While there are more luxurious options, nothing is missing and the charm is unbeatable. Before bedtime, the beds are made and mosquito nets set up; even on the departure day, the room is tidied and the beds made to ease packing. The meals were delicious across the board (we’re self‑confessed foodies), and every request was met. The safaris were fantastic: the six of us had a vehicle to ourselves, never more than six people in one car. Our guide Wienand ‘Eagle Eyes’ looked after us superbly. Wildlife was abundant—elephants everywhere, even very close by; a herd of over two hundred buffalo right next to our vehicle; hippos, various antelopes, giraffes, monkeys, wild dogs, and hyenas. We didn’t spot any big cats, but they’re there, as photos taken by a couple we met prove. Of course, there’s no ‘zoo ticket’… Thanks to the hosts and the fantastic staff; we’d return anytime! (copy&paste von meiner -Bewertung…) The only thing we’d have liked more was big cats, but otherwise nothing.
