From
South AfricaWe visited this beautiful glamping spot exactly five years ago, and coming back felt even more magical, especially with the surprise upgrade! The hosts were absolutely wonderful, welcoming, and attentive, which made the experience even more special. The rain made it therapeutic and calming, adding to that true nature escape feeling. The location is peaceful and perfectly tucked into nature.

Iliana
From
New ZealandThe rooms were large and very comfortable. I loved how the mesh covering the windows let you leave the windows open to still enjoy the beautiful nature sounds. The facilities all around the lodge are incredible. The beautiful animals even came up to visit us some days. We feed Tuli the Tame Nyala and saw Pumbas wife with her little babies cruising around the lodge area. The staff go out of their way to make you feel like you are home and part of the family. Service and food is some of the best we have seen in the world and we are frequent travellers.

This was my second visit to Balaya Game Resort, and I’m thrilled to say it surpassed even my already extraordinary first trip two years ago. Having explored many places in the area, I wasn't sure if they could recreate that magic—but they not only met, they exceeded every expectation!
The lodge is simply amazing, blending comfort with the raw beauty of nature. The rooms are impeccably clean, and the beds are new and incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful stay after a day of adventure.
One of the standout features of Balaya is the game drives. They are truly special, offering an intimate glimpse into the wild. The passion and dedication of the rangers shine through in every drive. Their knowledge about the animals and the land, combined with genuine care for your experience, elevates each safari into a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
During this visit, we even witnessed lions in their natural habitat—hunting and yes, killing. While such scenes might not be everyone’s cup of tea, for me, it was an awe-inspiring, raw demonstration of nature's realities. It's experiences like these that remind you of the wild’s unfiltered beauty and power.
Overall, Balaya Game Resort delivers on every front. The friendly staff, the comfortable accommodations, and the exceptional game drives make it one of the best experiences I’ve had. I can’t recommend it highly enough for anyone looking for an authentic and unforgettable safari adventure!

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.

We stayed in the two bedroom self-catering unit which was wonderful and had everything you needed (except a hammock ;-) ). The beaches are beautiful, endless and empty of people. The restaurant served the best food in the area so no need to go out for meals

Our stay in St Lucia was absolutely fantastic!
Our stay in St Lucia was absolutely fantastic! The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and perfectly located for exploring the beautiful surroundings. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. Everything was well-maintained, and the amenities were excellent.
The only minor downside was some noise from other guests in the morning, as our room was close to the reception. However, this didn’t take away from the overall experience, which was truly memorable.
We highly recommend this property to anyone visiting St Lucia and can’t wait to return. Thank you for making our trip so special!

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.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the wonderful hospitality I received during my stay this past weekend. From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely welcomed.
The food was exceptional and truly exceeded the value of what we paid — generous portions, great taste, and beautifully presented. Gogo’s warm and caring hospitality made the experience even more special; it is clear that she loves people and takes pride in making guests feel at home.
The pool experience was also fantastic — clean, refreshing, and perfectly positioned for relaxation.
I was equally impressed by the quality of the furniture and the attention to detail in the décor — everything is top-class and thoughtfully put together, creating a comfortable and elegant environment.
Thank you once again for the outstanding service. I look forward to visiting again and will certainly recommend your lodge to others.

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.

Set in the wilderness of KZN, this is a beautiful and comfortable lodge fitted with all the comforts one would need. Beds are comfy and the air-conditioning works superbly.
The outside showers are amazing, you will love the pool and the hiking trails around the reserve.
Spot the extensive bird life, zebra, buck and giraffe.
Pack for a braai, because this place lends itself to the braailife.

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.

Our time at Sodwana Bay was just what we needed! The diving was fantastic, as usual. There's so much to see underwater, from vibrant coral to curious marine life—it never gets old. For the family, the beach was perfect. The water was warm, which meant the kids could spend hours swimming without getting chilly. Plus, the currents weren't too strong, which made it safe and enjoyable for the little ones to splash around. It was a great mix of adventure and relaxation for everyone.

Central to a number of tourist attractions, i.e. Umfolozi National Park, St Lucia part of the iSimangaliso Wetland Park.
The town is a typical bustling, vibrant rural town, traffic a bit chaotic.
I was staying for business purposes, If on vacation I would have probably stayed closer to where the main tourist attractions are.
