Excellent facilities and staff. Pool area was great. Boat trip brilliant with great game viewing. Road from Richards Bay to gate was challenging due to number of large trucks and reckless drivers in the area but is manageable - certainly worth the trip

The drive through the reserve was amazing- we saw a lot of animals. The tent was great, the hot tub was immediately lit by a worker and we were helped immediately with all our needs. The stay was great.

We never got to the place as it is advertised as a "Pongola" establishment and it is not near Pongola - it's 30 kms outside in the bundu according to the police in Pongola. This is one of the bookings we'd like to forget. We do not neceassarily blame the property but we blame Booking not to ensure that place is in the town we booked. Booking is just making money, whichever way. If a booker makes a mistake, it's his problem; if a property makes a mistake, it's their problem; if Booking makes a mistake, it's my problem....which is bulldust!! IF YOU ADVERTISE PLACES TO STAY YOU SHOULD HAVE STAYED THERE BEFORE SO THAT YOU CAN VOUCH FOR EVERY DETAIL. NO, BOOKING.COM JUST TAKES THE EASY WAY AND PUT ALL THE BLAME ON THE BOOKER AND THE PLACE!!! It's advertising is questionable in many countries! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT. I'VE BOOKED MANY PLACES THROUGH BOOKING.COM over many years of travelling BUT THIS is THE LAST! PLEASE TAKE NOTE THAT apparantly THEY HAVE A MONOPOLY WITH BOOKINGS THROUGH MANY OTHER UNSUSSPECTED WEBSITES..... IS THIS ETHICAL?............I DON'T THINK SO. BOOKING WILL FALL AND IT'S NEAR.

An abundance of wildlife with great self drives. We spent every day on the dam and saw the most amazing game with an especially large group of elephants who were very entertaining to watch as they played in the water with their young.

Great Tigger fishing and great game viewing from the fishing boat. The guide has a good knowledge of the lake and the reserve and even did a little detour when taking us back to show the family the Rhino.
