Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Our safaris there honestly left us speechless - and kind of ruined all the ones that came after (in the best way). Everything about this place just felt special, from the setting to the little details. But what really made it was the people. Everyone we met was so warm and welcoming - you can tell they genuinely care. We felt completely spoiled the whole stay, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Hope to come back again one day! What we liked the most: - nice rooms with almost 24/7 cleaning. It was always so cute to come back and to perfectly clean room with a small piece of chocolate next to your bed - luxury safari 2 times per day with amazing experienced guides - you can easily spot wild animals just walking around at the Lodge, they come pretty close - nice look out place where animals come to refresh, you’re almost like in the cinema - comfy and close to take nice pictures - amazing food, private lunches/dinners every time at new spot. We loved our romantic dinner in a library just for 2 of us - friendly and welcoming people around - felling that you’re a special guest there
Negative: Nothing, everything was perfect!
Summary: Best of the best!
