We felt like home. Everything is in a very good condition and the interior is very tasteful. Our daughter loved the breakfast… especially the fresh baked carrot cake and the muffins. The teams helped us booking all our trips and gave us good tips that helped a lot. We will come back.

Location was sublime with views over the Jozini Dam and bushveld. The game drive was a highlight with our knowledgeable guide and we took some amazing photographs and enjoyed some complimentary snacks down at the water’s edge. Nothing was too much trouble, the staff were amazing and the food and the presentation was amongst the best I have ever had. With a comfortable bed, a good night sleep, amazing location, fantastic staff and of course the game drive to round it all off. Quality! A 5 star experience!

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.

We booked the penthouse suite - an 8 sleeper. It is beautifully furnished and clean. Room enough for all of us with a spacious living room. The staff were friendly and the bring and braai evening was a nice highlight for our stay . It was close to all the many restaurants in the area . We did have a hippo sighting one evening taking a walk on our way to supper. Would highly recommend a stay at the Lake View Cabana.

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!

The scenery was good, room not bad, wonderful staff and great breakfast. Boat is a daylight robbery, it's just too expensive and the boat os stationery most of the time we didn't fully explore the dam. The treatment at spa was substandard.

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.

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.
