We stayed at Lodge for 3 nights at the end of November, chosing the "All Inclusive" package. It was the best adventure and the best place we stayed during our trip through South Africa. Leo, our tour guide, has showed, explained and I jetted into us the wholesome approach to safari. You could feel like a carefree child that went on adventure to discover. We wish every tour guide could show to its guests such an excepcional respect towards the animals. Leo transforms such kindness, that at the end of the day you feel extremely rewarded by seeing every little living on safari, inuding birds, elephants, monkeys - all living wild and free. In the breaks, we could learn so much by having just a casual conversation with him. We really felt like being invited to magnificent kingdom of the animals, without feeling like some random intruders. A beating heart of this place is Debbie: what an outstanding manger. You "don't see her, don't hear her", but she is there and she keeps and eye on everything, ensuring such a comfortable stay for the guests. Debbie just transmits calmness, kindness, warmth, and professionalism. It was a real pleasure know her. The amazing Crew of the Lodge gives you a total family vibe. They winked an eye at us every time they left us a nice surprise in the form of flower petals or chocolates. Everything from warm towels to wipe our hands, through tasty meals (delicious soups!), was full of kindness and joy of hosting us. From warm welcome to a family-like farewell (followed by messages to check our further progress on the road) - everything was such a beautiful sign of being human that I came back completely refreshed. Enjoy every second of staying at the Lodge. Go out on adventure. Admire the nature with the respect and curiosity of an explorer. Feel fresh air on your face. Eat boldly and healthily. Relax in silence. Enjoy the polite, interesting conversations with wonderful people.

This location is marvellous. We slept into one of the tipical house which is absolutely wonderful. Candice welcomed us in a very friendly way and we felt at home far away from our home. We ate very well at the restaurant. The houses, together with the restaurant, the vegetable garden and the school are connected to a project to traine future chefs, receptionists, and so on. Here young men and women are getting French, maths, English, etc. Lessons and are prepared for the world of work. Congratulations to the owner for this gorgeous project I've loved and hope to come back one day, as a volunteer, to give my little contribution.

This is an authentic Rustic bush camp : the tents were spacious and very clean. Comfy beds. Owners and staff very interactive with all of the guests and very welcoming. Their host Dimitri was such a pleasure to deal with and really went out of his way to be of assistance. Game drive into Addo Wildlife Park was great : Ranger Brighton was very informative. We spent 2 lovely days at Kudu Ridge.

Amazing place, in the heart of the nature so that you feel like in a new dimension. The staff is extremely kind (especially Frederic, that cheered our dinner playing the piano!), and the room really big and cleaned. I had one of my best breakfast in my South Africa trip! Even the safaris were perfect. Thank you!
