Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The size of the lodge is bigger than expected, so peaceful, spacious and well laid out. Brilliant location, close enough to all activities, but secluded enough to just relax and enjoy every moment. The lodges on the property are so spaced out, you barely see another person. Perfect place to just relax and enjoy down time in the bush. Nadia is an exceptional host, warm, friendly and willing to accommodate your needs.
Negative: Nothing.
Summary: Exceptional stay
