This Lodge was by far the best location we visited during our stay in Africa. We had Desmond as a game driver. He was very knowledgeable and funny. It was a real pleasure dooing the outings with him. They also had a system in which everybody was assigned to a waiter. Sheldon the waiter was also amazing.

The entire experience was phenominal. The amazing staff, the welcome, the foof, the luxury rented, and of course, the 2 game drives were incredible, with us seeing so many animals, despite the rain. We were mostly dry on the trucks, and there was a lovely fire to warm us up on our return. A fantastic family experience that we will never forget. Thanks to our fantastic guide, Roxy!

Amazing stay at an intimate game reserve, we could not fault this place. The size of the lodge meant we got excellent dedicated service - Bulela the guide is extremely knowledgeable and the drives were 10/10. Thando and Kesa on front of house are so friendly and the food was great. The property is newly renovated and the finishing touches / attention to detail complete the whole experience. We will be back!

Meals were outstanding; location was great; good example of a traditional country ranch house, grounds were spacious in a fine natural setting. The staff was courteous, pleasant and highly efficient. Learning about the history of Leeuwenbosch and Amakhala was very fascinating. They provided phantastic safaris.

This was an experience we will never forget it was everything we were looking for. We were with a really great bunch of ppeople and the staff were excellent. One of our group visit different parks all over Africa and she told us that this was one on the best. I would not go and stay in the lodges the experience we got was something you could not get from a lodge location
