What a special place

Pros: Their personalisation was superb. They paid attention to us and went out of their way to accommodate us. We noticed all the little things they did to make us feel at home. The hosts both John and his wife were simply awesome. Wow.

Cons: Nothing about the place. The reserve is a little dense but John made up for it by us safely tracking lion, cheetah and rhino on foot to get better photos. Excellent work.

Pros: Incredible quality and value for money. The rooms are beautifully appointed and comfortable. The food is excellent and abundant. The safaris themselves are fascinating and top notch - the guiding is superb, the reserve is gorgeous and clearly well managed. The hosts at camp were very warm and welcoming.

Fantastic private game lodge!

Pros: Abelana is a beautiful lodge inside a private Big 5 game reserve. The rooms are private with great views of the Selati river. Every meal was delicious (and the teams took extra care ti cater for all dietary requirements). Our guide Adi was knowledgeable and took us on fantastic game drives!

Fantastisch. Wij komen zeker voor de 3de keer terug!

Pros: Fantastisch! Het echte Afrika gevoel. De comfort in de tent, goed bed, heerlijk dekbed, warme kruik en water. De badkamer. Het buiten zitten. Het lieve, bescheiden personeel die heerlijk kookt en zorgt dat alles in de puntjes geregeld is. Fantastisch Crystal en mr T die ons verblijf tot het mooist maakten. Thanks en see you next time❤️
