Reviews and Ratings
The lodge is beautifully situated in the Bush with a satisfying game drive experience. The rooms, though slightly worn out, were comfy, but had issues with dirty sheets initially and obscured views of the water hole due to trees. The dining was on another level with a world-class selection despite being somewhat expensive.
