Next time we will stay longer!

Pros: Very beautiful lodge, inside a private game reserve. Dinner was very good and the hosts are very caring and welcoming. Our flight was cancelled and they agreed to postpone our stay.

Relaxing and nothing too much trouble.

Pros: We loved Panzi lodge from start to finish. Charmaine and all the other staff were really helpful and made us feel welcome. The food was excellent and we felt relaxed and chilled out. Loved seeing the wildlife around the lodge and listening to the night time chorus.

Chrisna 10/10

Pros: We thoroughly enjoyed our mini bush break at Panzi Lodge. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by smiling faces and staff going above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable and enjoying their time, whether you went on one of the many adventures in the area or chose to relax by the pool. The personnel were always ready to assist with arrangements and dispensing valuable advice and recommendations about the area and having a friendly chat at dinnertime. Our room was immaculate and tastefully decorated. Sipping your morning coffee while monkeys, bushpigs and zebras graze around your chalet really revives your soul! The outside showers and privacy of each individual chalet were amazing additions to relax and restore. We hope to visit again very soon!

Best escape retreat in nature

Pros: The breakfast and dinner was out of this world. Those ladies are working magic in the kitchen. Plus they keep breakfast to your preferred wake-up time.

Cons: Walking from parking with bags to the unit. They must look into having push trolleys at least.

Great stay!

Pros: The staff working there is so lovely!!!!! The room was very comfortable, clean, well equipped and the location in the reserve is great! Dinner and breakfast were also very good! Good distance to make the Panorama road, and the Kruger Park as well.

Cons: For small cars, the road to get to the accommodation can be tricky and pretty long (need to drive slow to avoid getting a flat tire).
