Amazing! Amazing!

Pros: Spacious villa. Villa is fully furnished, basically bring your own care items everything else is available. Aircons in each bedroom. Blackout curtains for those lazy mornings

Cons: Nothing wrong with the property, as someone who lived in the city all their life the bugs got to me. I screamed throughout๐Ÿคฃ

Very good for a quiet break

Pros: Good location, excellent views, nice BBQ area, nice pool, animals walking around the lodge, good bird sitings, the chalet is lay-out etc. is very good, beautiful inside with roomy, all with nice bathrooms.

Cons: The Game drive is not worth it, we expected better & saw all the animals when walking in the property - the game drive is the same route as just walking around the property. Our coffee filter wasn't working & not fixed/replaced after reporting shortly after arrival. Power trips on some of the accessory plugs due to underrated Circuit Breakers to run plugs from

a great escape from the city

Pros: The location is amazing, arrival was organized ahead of time. The staff were very friendly and professional. The pictures honestly don't do it justice.

What a fabulous place

Pros: Superb location in the middle of the bush, with great views over a valley, fantastic large and spotless chalets, ability to walk around looking for wildlife, exceptional food. Dark skies, lovely sunsets. But the best are the staff - nicole and sonja are wonderful.

Cons: Nothing about the lodge - it is superb. Be aware access is a long drive along a sand and gravel road. We managed ok in a sedan in the dry season. No mobile phone signal, if that's important to you, but they have wifi. No big five animals, but zebra, giraffe, antelopes, warthogs, monkeys, baboons.....plenty to seek out.

A perfect break away and into the beauty of the African bush! The sunset game drive was the best surprise and we love ev

Pros: Everything was perfect! Loved it all! We had a magnificent short breakaway and it was heavenly! We stayed in Lodge number 7 - it was absolutely stunning! Sonia was great! Sydney was a star - we thoroughly enjoyed his company on the game drives and he was so kind to drive us to and from the main reception / restaurant to our lodge.

Cons: Definitely do not drive anything less than a 4 x 4. I really struggled with my car and the roads are very bad for non 4x 4 โ€˜s. Dikweng did forewarn me but I wasnโ€™t able to make another plan, so not their fault. We still made the most of it and Sydney was a great help. You must definitely call the lodge as per the instructions they give you, there is no reception once you on the dirt road so we were stranded for a short while. By some miracle I managed to get a quick call through to the lodge and we were then sorted. Again, my fault for not following instructions ๐Ÿ˜‚

Not a lot to do. Good if you looking for time out and to just relax.

Pros: Location, secluded Clean, large rooms,nicely decorated The food well prepared tasty Not a big 5 reserve but the viewing deck offered splendid views.

Cons: Load shedding and inverter didnโ€™t work We turned it into family time by the boma and started gazing
