MILIMA Big 5 Safari Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"Que experiência fantástica! Desde do contato após confirmação da reserva, a recepção, o Lodge, todos os funcionários e o Ranger, nosso guia no safaria, foram excepcionais. Minha esposa e eu amamos tudo!"
"Exceptional experience from start to finish. Where else can you start your day with a beautiful outdoor shower followed by a delicious breakfast in the garden including a visit by a giraffe just a few feet away? We would love to return back sometime soon."
"I was skeptical of a big chain in Hoedspruit - we usually stay in small inns, but we had an unexpected stay here when my mother in law had an emergency stay at the hospital, arriving late at night.
On arrival and throughout our stay the staff went ABOVE and beyond for us. Giving my in laws an upgraded main floor room so they didn’t have to go upstairs. And being very patient when we were working with Hotels.com trying to add an extra day on to our stay.
The hotel itself is beautiful - lots of trees, fantastic pools, well appointed comfortable rooms, good restaurants and fantastic breakfast.
We will definitely keep this hotel in our mix of places to stay when visiting Hoedspruit!"
"We had a fantastic stay at AM Lodge and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. The villa is beautiful, comfortable, and provides the perfect setting to relax and unwind.
What made our stay especially memorable was the amazing staff. Everyone was so warm, friendly, and welcoming, always going out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Their genuine kindness and hospitality made us feel right at home.
A huge thank you to Origin and Carl for our game drives – and for not giving up until we finally found the rhino! Their knowledge, enthusiasm, and determination made the experience unforgettable. We’d also like to thank Charity for being the hostess with the mostest and taking such wonderful care of us throughout our stay.
Thank you to the entire team for making our visit so special."
Oase by 7 Star Lodges - Greater Kruger Private 530ha Reserve
10/10 Excellent
"The room was beautiful and we had the best of times with the game drives and evry event they organised for us. The staff is really good and made us feel the most comfortable. "
"Beautiful hotel with stunning rooms and real sense of luxury. The pool and grounds are so tranquil and calm and everything is immaculate
The staff are attentive and professional and the setting is beautiful with giraffe and zebra roaming around - so lovely.
The restaurant is gorgeous. The only tiny bit of feedback is that the restaurant staff got things a bit confused for us and forgot some of the food and got the courses mixed up so the children got their main courses while the adults were served the starter so then had to wait ages for their pudding while we had the rest of the meal, and the side orders of vegetables never materialised but overall we had a wonderful stay "
