I simply loved everything… if I tell you that I was actually depressed to leave to go to the second lodge we booked, would you believe this? - the room was really impeccable, this was my favorite part. We stayed at the Harrier luxury tent. The “lake” goes behind the tent so you can hear all the frogs and animals etc. it’s really amazing. The outdoor shower was crazy good. The room is soooo quiet otherwise. You don’t hear NOTHING except a bunch of different animals. We even heard leopard sounds and a giraffe in the morning. It’s really that amazing. - let me tell you I’m super picky with bedding and sheets and comfort of the bed and I was like AMAZED by how good the bed was. The sheets were high quality… was great 10/10 - the lodge is small so you get really individualized attention, which some might like some might not - they have lots of animals pretty much all the main ones minus lions and rhinos I think. The leopard and hiena are more rare but we did see them in the property so it was SOOO worth it. Flora the guide was super cool and we did an extra drive with her at ngiht to look for the leopard. This for me MADE THE TRIP. Because I felt like I was close to the people working there and we could talk and adjust and be flexible with the stuff. This was a big plus, since I don’t like these SUPER structured commercial lodges (we saw some like that…)

Great service starts right from the moment you walk in. The butler greeted us at the door with drinks, which was just wonderful. Be ready for surprises at any moment here! The three days we spent here are truly memorable! Let's talk about the villa itself first. The facilities are very complete. The name Ukannyi comes from a Marula tree next to our house, which drops fruits onto the floor every day, making a fascinating sound! Get used to living with local wildlife. One day, we encountered a family of warthogs coming to graze. They stayed in our front and back yards for a long time while we were reading and swimming, and they were leisurely grazing. Giraffes also came near our house; I was really looking forward to a giraffe poking its head into our outdoor shower, haha! The villa has a large beautiful living room, dining room, and kitchen. A chef comes to our room to cook three meals a day for us. Sometimes we eat inside, sometimes outside, and every meal is different and very delicious. On the last evening, to bid us farewell, the butler dressed in beautiful local attire, giving us a huge surprise. Be ready for surprises at any moment here, but I won't spoil too much! The room has 3 bedrooms, each large and comfortable, and we slept very well. There is also a swimming pool, which the 2 children especially liked to play and swim in. The twice-daily safari activities are the most exciting part. Although it takes 3 hours each morning and evening to look for animals, we were not tired at all. Apart from the leopard, we saw all of the Big Five multiple times, and as a consolation, we were very fortunate to see cheetahs. The feeling of returning to nature is just too wonderful! I'm really looking forward to coming back! Many thanks to our butler, trackers,guides, chefs, and all the staff for bringing us such wonderful memories!

We loved absolutely everything about our stay at Rhino's Rest. The property itself is STUNNING! Everything is immaculately clean, beds are comfortable and kitchen is well stocked. We saw rhino everyday, lions mating, giraffe, elephant and all the game. Adél is an incredible, friendly and genuine host who made our stay everything we could have hoped for and more. Zodwana and Nelius do a fantastic job keeping the property clean and well maintained. We honestly cannot recommend Rhino's Rest anymore highly! We will be back!

It's such a beautiful place in the quiet of the bush. Beautiful boma to enjoy before a fabulous dinner cooked over the open coals and the most beautiful presentation of a rooibos panna cotta ever! Definitely stay a few days.

A lovely, vibrant, and gorgeous boutique hotel. The rooms were very clean, spacious, beautiful decor with wonderful quality linen and furniture! The pool was refreshing on a hot summers day, and was so inviting. The duty managers were very welcoming and helpful in booking activities for us in and around Hoedspruit. The hotel is very central, and is within close proximity to excellent restaurants, as well as many private game reserves with options of Morning and evening safaris of which the hotel will arrange and book on your behalf. There are also many other activities to do within and around Hoedspruit. Would definitely recommend, and can't wait for our return! Thank you Khiwane, and your lovely team. Lastly, our breakfast included in our stay at the Harvest House Restaraunt was divine! 10/10, with many options.

    It was a brilliant experience, in particular the game drives and being out in the wild. The resort is excellent! Tips: No loo on a 3-hour game drive so don’t drink too much before heading out. For photographers - consider using two cameras - short lens and long lens ones. Saves having to switch lens if you have two cameras ready. Speed if reaction is required to capture some shots.

    The food in River Lodge was superb, and the service from all staff from game drives and walks, bar and restaurant, spa and house keeping were fabulous. A 3 day stay minimum would be recommended, but we did 5 and didnt want to leave.

    This was my fourth time at Kapama. Saw the big five within the first day. It never disappoints. This is a magical place that makes me happy. The guide and the tracker are very knowledgeable and make the ride enjoyable. The food is exceptional with different options at each meal. The staff is accommodating and pleasant and makes you feel like you’re at home. They go above and beyond to make your stay the best experience ever.

    This is my 2nd stay and I'll be going back. The opportunity to see wildlife in their natural habitat at Kapama is amazing. The Guides are phenomenal! Truly gifted with their ability to track animals. Each visit I've been lucky enough to see the Big 5 and so much more. Each game drive is an adventure in itself!
