Staff was great. Very friendly and helpful. Restaurant’s dinner was great both nights. Well worth the price. Rooms don’t have a lot of cross ventilation or screens so using the aircon was needed. Bed wasn’t the most comfy but that’s low on the importance list.

The chalet was spacious and clean but old. We enjoyed the activities there. The office staff was very hard to get in touch with and didn’t communicate well at all.

Lovely Experience

Pleasantly surprised at the lodge. Service was lovely and staff were friendly and helpful - even organising additional activities for us. Special thank you to Anna who was an amazing and knowledgeable guide. Dinner service was well presented and delicious. Accommodation was clean and well-maintained. Aircon was strong enough to cool the room throughout and bathroom + kitchen were spacious and tidy.

Entièrement satisfaite par mes 2 jours passés à Ukutula Beau cadre bien entretenu et calme Très belle piscine Personnel sympathique qui fait le maximum pour rendre le séjour agréable Repas proposés copieux et bons mais peu de choix Il serait bien de changer les meubles dans les lodges qui commencent à avoir de l'âge en particulier les armoires
