These cottages are absolutely suburb! We loved the sweet little path to the cottage (many birds and red duikers to spot), the comfy beds, great kitchenette set-up and host who went above and beyond to make sure our kids also had a blast. The adjacent Delishh restaurant was simply the cherry on top!

We had such a wonderful stay at the Leopard Corner Lodge. The two ladies of the house were so lovely and nice, telling us all the tips and to do's in and around Lucia. We did - on their recommendation - a game drive in Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, a self-drive in iSimangaliso and a boat trip in St-Lucia. All of them were incredible. They know the best companies in town for those activities. Besides that they offer ice packs and a box to keep your drinks and food cool when going out on a day to the beach or a self-drive, big thumbs-up for that! Breakfast was on point and the staff was always very polite. The rooms were clean and everything was there what we needed during our stay, just perfect. Lovely and nice ladies, we hope to see them back soon. We definitely recommend to stay here in the lodge!

We had a really nice good sized, authentic African themed room in the gardens of this lovely property. Clean, comfortable and with a very special ambience in the room, the main house and in the garden. A very special place. The breakfasts were the best we’ve had at any property with home made focaccia, sourdough and preserves. Freshly prepared seasonal fruits with Greek yogurt and a cooked breakfast. Adrian and Marie were exemplary hosts. Very attentive but never too much so. Adrian gave us great advice on places to go based on what we wanted. His advice was spot on. A perfect stay. Thank you.

Stayed here 4 nights and if you want to escape and get away for a few days and immerse yourself in the forest and the lakes then this is the place for you. Exceptional staff, very comfortable 'tented' and secluded accommodation, amazing sunsets, great food with intimate evening meals served in the forest around an open fire, very romantic. Enjoyed the paid boat excursion so much as we did with the included canoe and forest walk. Great guides, full of information.

Comfortable and Relaxing not too easy to be found, use google maps to get there comfortable. The lodge has a couple of luxury huts, quite in distance to each other. The rooms are big, very big. Very nice furniture. Very clean. High level standard. Food is very good as well. Service always perfect and friendly. Wifi existing and strong. All in all very luxury place, very romantic atmosphere. You get value for your money! Would we come again? YES !!

We did not eat there we booked at the self-catering chalets. We would have loved to have breakfast but find R185 pp is a bit expensive. We did have a drink at the bar witch we loved as the bar lady was on the ball and so help full and friendly and to top it off, she brought us a bowl of popcorn, what a nice gesture. The property is like a little place in heaven rest for the soul. Will definitely be back, and the birding is fantastic.

The food was fabulous, 4 meals a day, you won't starve, and its good healthy meals not filled with chips and good variety. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The location is fabulous remote but the lodge is very clean and well kept. I was overall very impressed by the quality of what was provided for the cost.

St Lucia is a great holiday destination.

St Lucia is a great holiday destination. Nice small village, you can walk freely at any time of the day or night. The John Dorys was fantastic. Spar and Shoprite allow you to purchase what ever you forgot at home. Traveling to Cape Vidal was epic, we saw Rhino and Hyena just passing our vehicle. Please check what time is low tide so you can better enjoy snorkeling at the reef.

I will always recommend to have a tour guide when you getting to the wild side because our tour guide was more than the word perfect in terms of understanding the area and animals and the zoo as whole.

It is THE place for scuba diving in South Africa! We can only recommend it ! Beaches are empty and one can snorkel on the house reef during low tide. Pity about the state of the reserve in general as it is not maintained and one often find no running water at the showers located at the beach.

Mkuze is the best place to stay if you want to visit the Mkuze Game Reserve. We saw plenty at the two hides - herds of wildebeest, impala and nyala and plenty of birds. It's about 60 km to the Memorial Gate entrance to the Imfolozi-Hluhluwe Game Reserve - we got up early and got there as the gates opened to spend the day in the reserve. It's also worth driving up Jozini and taking a boat out on the dam. The hotel has a great offering of tours with their own guides.

We booked for 6 nights but left after the first night. I cannot recommend this place to anyone. The owners is misrepresenting the property. There was no ice machine. Aircon was not working. Shower is not draining the water away. Pool and entertainment area needs TLC. The unit was cockroach invested.

The road from Ermelo to Pongola, especially just before and after Piet Retief/Mkhondo is terrible. Rather take a longer route which ended up being quicker and safer as you didn't have to worry about the state of the road.
