    The hot water finishes quicker and the gas for the stove also finishes quicker.

    I really loved the property. It is clean and well-kept and provides peace away from the busy city life.

    It was SUPER relaxing, with everything you need to make your holiday special!

    A dust pan and brush in the tent would be great, there is a broom but nothing to pick the dust etc. once you have swept. A sharp vegetable knife and potato peeler would also be great, especially when you are there for 7 days and cooking most of your meals.

    The tent was beautifully decorated, clean and the location in the bush was superb! The outside furniture was comfortable to relax on and the braai boma was magical! Fanie was amazing with checking in on us daily, to make sure we were comfortable and happy. The animals roaming around was such a pleasure too, we saw so many animals and walking in the reserve is extremely safe!!

    An enchanting place in the middle of nature. Tranquility, absolute privacy, breathtaking landscapes, starry skies. The swimming pool for exclusive use, the barbecue available to guests, the tent equipped for cooking, the professionalism of the manager, Fanie, available to provide information... Note: The last stretch of road, about 13 kilometers, is unpaved. We traveled it with a low rental car. We had no problems but of course you have to go very slowly. During the journey we saw giraffes, impalas, zebras... Spectacular!!! At the entrance to the reserve they sell wood and ice at a reasonable price. Highly recommended!!!

    We wanted the big tent, but we got the small one... I think there should be an option to choose when you make the booking on booking.com Other than that. The place is amazing. I can't fault it for anything.

    There was no network but it was great for a retreat. The other activities were outside the game reserve and it’s a bit far out.

    The location, the space was beautiful and clean. A very comfortable home and the facilities on the property were 10/10! Exceeded our expectations, we were very happy.

    Need to look at air cons instead of the mobile units, braai area is stunning but if it rains you cannot braai as there is no shelter.

    We loved that we have our privacy, great location, secure, clean, really enjoyed our stay!

    Our stay was nothing short of spectacular! The hosts were incredibly welcoming and made the entire experience seamless from start to finish. Their warm hospitality and detailed guidance ensured we had everything we needed. The tent's breathtaking view surpassed our wildest expectations! The accommodation itself was immaculate, spacious, and perfectly equipped for a cozy stay. The pool was a lovely oasis, perfect for cooling off in the heat. But what truly made our stay unforgettable were the incredible animal encounters. We felt like we were in a wildlife paradise! Overall, we couldn't recommend this place more highly.
