I would highly recommend you try out the accommodation here. On the second night of our stay we had a hippo walk right past where i was braaing. What an incredible experience this was and exactly the reason we chose Lake St Lucia Lodge. It is obvious that Andre is very proud of his establishment and so he should be. The gardens are always neat and the sand driveway raked making it exciting to scour the ground in the mornings to see if the hippo had returned or passed by during the night. We will definitely be back here again. Thanks Andre for your hospitality.

Hi there. I visited the Lodge from 04th October until the 10th October. We where full heartedly welcomed and greeted by the Owner of the lodge. That's not always the case as I frequently visit places on a forth nightly basis. This was the first for this year. During the stay at the lodge I found it strange that there where no workers at the lodge but the place was at a very high standard maintained. From the gardens to room service to giving advice on touring and lodge security I found that the Owner himself doing everything. A remarkable individual who is down to earth, someone you can talk to and someone who is passionate about life. I always say respect is never given to am individual but RESPECT is Earned. The owner of the lodge Andre surely had earned my RESPECT. To all tourists, businessmen or businesswoman or someone looking for a getaway this is the ideal place to go to. A bonus to the lodge is that the hippos, warthogs and Guineapigs

Simple but very clean accommodation with everything you need. The host Andre is very accommodating and helps with a lot of information. Booked us the River Tour directly and gave us other good tips. The garden in the complex is very well maintained and sometimes hippos come by. We didn't see any there, unfortunately, but on the street at night in the village.

We had a great stay here! We had everything we needed, a great location and Andre (the host) made us feel very welcomed! He gave many great recommendations which we also did like self safaris, boat cruises and where the best places were to eat and none of them disappointed. We would definitely recommend this place!

The room was great, close to town center but quiet, Felt safe and secure with owner on property. Andre was attentive with lots of information. Nice gardens, very clean with good kitchen area, price competitive.
Power and water to unit during and after a big storm and in Power sharing times, but owner has ideas to ameliorate this. Good luck for the future Andre!!

It is an accommodation with three well-equipped cabins in Santa Lucía, everything about it suggests vacations and relaxation. In addition to a private space for each cabin, there is a beautiful garden where it is not uncommon to see an animal passing by...
The owner helps find excursions, gives useful information, suggests activities, really makes life very easy.

The location is fantastic with a beautiful garden. We were welcomed with a surprise visit by a Hippo which was amazing to experience. Its the smell of freshness in the air with the tranquil atmosphere and african themed decor . The Host is so pleasant and friendly and provided valuable insight on where to go and what to do. He was very well prepared with a map and it certainly was usefull.

The chalet was a nice size, everything we required was provided for in the chalet. The chalets could do with a bit of updating but that does not detract from the fact that it served our purposes well. Well located relative to facilities in town without being in the middle on seasonal mayhem.

Andre helped us planning our itinerary and he found an hippo walking in town and he accompanied us with his car to see this hippo in the night. It was an unforgettable experience for us.
A really nice and quiet place to sleep.
