    An amazing experience to be surrounded by nature, with only the birds,buck, ostriches,giraffes and rhinos as neighbours. Chalet is comfortable and beautiful and the kitchen was excellent, has everything you may need (oil,salt,pepper,tea,coffee,water), you only have to bring food. Sitting by the fire in the evening was the best way to end the day. We also did the elephant walk (highly recommended!!) and the game drive. Both wonderful.

    Loved that we were out in nature. The decor was amazing, beds very comfortable. The separate kitchen had all we needed. Able to access wifi from room but better in the kitchen. Enjoyed the drive to our accommodation on the property then had an awesome game drive to admire the animals on the reserve. I also enjoyed browsing and purchasing items from their little gift shop.

    Nothing to complain about. It is, of course not a huge game reserve and some animals are still missing, but the experience is great nevertheless

    Great family-run private game reserve. Arena, Gerhard and Hanro make you really feel welcome. The chalets offer all you need and the extra kitchen house makes it very practical. Also firewood and charcoal are already there. All you need is the food and drinks (water is also there). Elephant walk and game drive are special, Happy to come back when the lions are there.

    The host was very friendly and worked around our uncertain arrival time. The game drive we did with Hanro was lovely and it was inspiring to see the family's dedication to the veldt and game. We booked for an overnight stay and with only two lodges on the site we had the whole place to ourselves. The facilities in the lodges and the separate kitchen were excellent. One has to self-cater and we did a braai. The highlight was spending the evening sitting in front of the fire, under the stars, all quiet and feeling part of nature - a truly unique and magical experience.

    Nothing. All very good.

    The landscape was spectacular, the animals had space to roam and forage. Our hut was very comfortable and private. The kitchen facilities were good, as was the wifi connection. We loved sitting in the Brai area watching the Impalas tip toe to the water hole. Elephant and Safari drive were excellent.

    The views are impeccable. Feels very in touch with nature here. Lovely accommodation, very good size. Saw the giraffes have a drink in the waterhole in the morning. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Big thank you to everyone at Indalu. Was the highlight of our trip to South Africa. I will definitely come back and stay.

    If you want to meet African nature, you must choose Indalu. I have never seen a better lodge. You have your own little cottage and a 100% equipped kitchen with a superb braai area.

    There was nothing we didn't like

    We did the elephant walk and interaction and the the game drive, both of which were fabulous. We then stayed the night and had an awesome experience. There are only 2 lodges, 1 of which was unoccupied so we were the only guests using the facilities and outside areas. Firewood is available so it was wonderful to sit by the fire, look at the stars, fully enjoy the experience and immerse ourselves in the surroundings, with just the sounds of animals and birds. The room is very comfortable and the large kitchen (in a separate building) is fully equipped. We woke in the morning to find 2 giraffes right next to our lodge, which was simply magical. Also, the hosts were very welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable. I'm so glad that we decided to stay here.
