How guests rate the property, aspect by aspect.
The staff at this camp really made our stay special - the waiters and security guys were super friendly and went out of their way to help. Unfortunately, the dinner options were a letdown - they could have been fresher and simpler. Our game drive guide eventually got the hang of things, but it took a while for him to find his rhythm and he wasn't exactly passionate about showing us the wildlife.

The staff at this place were genuinely top-notch, but unfortunately, the same can't be said for the hotel itself. It's clear that the building is old and in need of some serious TLC - the decor, fixtures, and even the water glasses in the room are all pretty low-rent. I've stayed at other Heritage Group properties in the area before, and this one was a major letdown.

The hotel's big plus was the spacious room and the lovely curtain, which let in plenty of natural light. Unfortunately, the room itself was a bit of a letdown, lacking any real decor or character. The location was pretty good, but the noise from the street outside was a bit of a nuisance. Overall, it was a decent stay, but nothing that really stood out.

We were really lucky with the location, right on the river, and our guide Jelly was super experienced and a great driver. However, the gear in the tents was a bit dated, and the toilet reservoir was taking ages to fill up - not sure if that's just because of the lack of fresh water. The sinks and taps could also do with a refresh.

The staff at this place were absolutely lovely and made our stay really enjoyable. The bed was super comfy and the food was great too. However, the location might not be ideal for nature lovers - it's on the other side of the river from the community land, so you're more likely to see goats and donkeys than any other wildlife. Unfortunately, the community dogs were a bit of a nuisance, barking nonstop through the night and keeping all of us awake.
