The tents were stunning, the food was delicious, and the service was top notch. Always felt safe, and spotted so many animals on the game drives. Would recommend!

Everything was 6 stars. Located inside the private game reserve - you are picked up at the gates - being 30 minutes rough terrain drive from Sediba and thereafter are made to feel like special guests. Only 6 lodges in use (8 max) means total of 12 guests when the park was fully booked. The staff could not be more friendly, helpful, and genuinely interested. The rooms truly luxurious and spacious. Fluffy white towels changed several times a day. We had an entirely private deck overlooking the...

The Clifftop is like walking into heaven. The staff are amazing and the views are incredible. The food was great as well.
Greg was our guide and he is the best. Absolutely worth the 4:30 wake up call. We saw some incredible sites including a cheetah chase, elephants having a bath and escaping a crocodile, lion cubs playing with their Dad, a leopard, the list goes on.
It was an unforgettable experience and I want to go back already.

We were very lucky to have the lodge to ourselves, it’s beautifully decorated & nothing is too much trouble. A mini bar & WiFi in the room would be nice as having to keep going to the main lodge was not ideal.
Will definitely be returning to this beautiful place

The resort is fantastic, the unit was clean, comfortable and well maintained. All the staff we encountered were friendly, helpful and welcoming. The restaurant food was excellent and we cannot recommend your resort enough. Thank you for a fabulous few days.

Everything was excellent. From the restaurant staff to the tour guide’s everyone was pleasant with a can do attitude.
