"Hotel was by and large o.k., but not as good as we had been expecting from some of the reviews.
Contrary to the description on Venere at the time, there is NO pool. Lots of young children in this larger type of guesthouse equalled higher noise levels than we would ideally have liked.
Not top of our list for a return visit to the area."

Qambathi was absolutely stunning. We were welcomed by friendly and helpful staff who made sure our stay was all we expected and more. Nadia and Stephen are lovely hosts who really went out of their way to accommodate us with our pets. The rooms were clean and comfortable with lovely garden views. Forest walks and mountain views near by and the food was delicious too. We would definitely return to Qambathi again.

Excellent safari lodge - very friendly. Great guide (Jordan) - saw the big 5 including after hours extra trip to find leopard on road. Comfortable vehicle. Ponchos needed for pouring rain in one trip did not spoil experience. Very friendly managers and staff. Would highly recommend. Birthday cake produced too and great vegan food for one of our party provided.

This was a fantastic hotel with great staff, excellent food, at a brilliant price. It’s a bit off the beaten track but this adds to its charm and is in a beautiful location. Definitely need a car.

The staff are amazing with their personalised and friendly service making it a home from home with a 5 star feel. This came recommended by a family member and we were not disappointed either. Little surprises and treats along the way make it superb.

I booked a room for my daughter to spend with her baby on her first birthday. I was away in the UK and asked the lodge if they would be able to put roses and champagne etc. in the room. And leave a birthday message from me. Lisa provided it all and made it so special for them. And had balloons and cupcakes with candles at the breakfast table. I’m so thankful to her! She went above and beyond what I expected. My daughter said it was the perfect setting to spend her daughter’s first birthday. And...
