It was exceptional. The staff, the food, the drives, the room. I’ve clearly been doing the bush incorrectly.

The property was modern, welcoming and beautiful. We loved spending time in the pool. And the hang out spots (bar, restaurant, Boma) were all beautiful.

Everything about Little Safari Lodge was perfect. We were looking for a chilled experience and were so happy with our stay. The game rides were exceptional. Robert and Mateo went above and beyond to ensure we had a very personal up close experience. They were just exceptional. The lodge was fantastic. The food was absolutely restaurant quality in taste and presentation. We had to cancel lunch one day as we were so full from breakfast. We saw all the big five and so many more animals in their natural habitat. Just stunning. We will be returning. Thanks for the best stay.

We had a fabulous cabin - right on the end with no fencing & we could watch the animals walk past. No tourists coming & going past us. We had the most knowledgeable thoughtful informative guide (Sodin)& spotter (Chris)who always knew where the animals were going& could drive around to get a closer look at them arriving

It’s hard to pick just one thing we liked, because honestly, this was one of the best stays we’ve had in all our extensive travels. Missing out on a place like this would be a real shame, the accommodation, interior, and rooms were absolutely top-notch. The location was also perfect for visiting Kruger National Park. A big thank you to Ruan and his wife for making the experience even more unforgettable. Do not miss this spot while you can!

Where to begin - I've stayed at my fair share of luxury hotels around the world but African Flair Lodge tops all of them. The huge size of the property for just one couple, the extremely unique and beautiful decoration, immaculate attention to detail and most importantly the hospitality is just unmatched elsewhere. From the moment you step into this property you can tell this is not just a commercially ran boutique hotel, this is a project that the host has poured her heart and soul into. The entire stay experience was so comfortable, so personal and sooooo special. I really look forward to come back!

We celebrated our second wedding anniversary at Makuwa Safari Lodge, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Breakfast was an absolute delight — each morning felt like something out of a dream. Simone prepared the most flavourful, beautifully plated meals with so much love and creativity. From the fresh fruit to the hearty warm dishes, everything was thoughtfully crafted and delicious. It was honestly one of the best lodge breakfasts and dinners we've ever had! The location is simply breathtaking. Nestled in a peaceful, private setting surrounded by nature, the lodge offered the perfect escape from the everyday rush. It’s serene, safe, and filled with those little quiet moments that let you truly relax, reconnect, and breathe. A heartfelt thank you to Simone and Morne for their warm hospitality and attention to detail. As a special surprise for our anniversary, they gifted us a complimentary bottle of sparkling wine, which made the celebration feel even more meaningful. The staff also went above and beyond to make our room feel romantic and welcoming, from chocolates on our pillows to petals on the bed shaped into a heart. Every little touch made us feel celebrated and cared for. We left with full hearts, happy memories, and a deep sense of gratitude. Makuwa Safari Lodge will always hold a special place in our story — we can’t wait to return!

    Exceptional service in an exceptional location. once you’ve done a safari in a private reserve you will never look back, and this is the best lodge in the best reserve. Made to feel very special, all the staff knew our names from the moment we arrived. Game drives all stunning, good fabulous and nothing was too much trouble. already plotting our return, and this time we will bring friends and family to share it with. Justice and Elvis were the best of hosts on the game drives.

    Incredible service from the time we arrived until we had left. We were lucky enough to spot the big 5 in just two game drives and witnessed a lion hunt. The open safari experience was exhilarating in comparison to other 5 star lodges visited previously. The staff are so friendly and welcoming! The luxury tent was superb in every aspect, exactly as advertised. Food was delicious and my husband is vegetarian so his meals were also well catered for and divine. We also tried the River Lodge Spa, this was one of the finest spas I have been too.

    The Kapama Game Reserve is the best cost benefit Lodge in Hoespruit! Everything is well organized and carefully planned. They pick you up at the airport, give you all the support during the stay and prepare the schedule perfectly for you to enjoy a memorable Safari Game, swimming pool, gym and meals in there. I spent my honeymoon and I couldn't chose any other place. All the team are so friendly and kind that I am sure I will be there a second time.

    Its a fantastic private reserve, easily accessible from the Airport with well organised private transfers. You can enjoy a lodge experience here, as well as a boutique hotel feel if you prefer. A perfect balance - the rangers and trackers are excellent, we saw the Big 5, smaller animals and a wonderful array of birds - great safari experience.
