Typical mid-range safari accommodation

3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 29 Oct 2018
The staff varied between quite pleasant and quite sullen but we did get whatever we needed when we asked.

The restaurant was actually quite good with a good view and plenty of choices on the buffet.

The room was adequate - the typical lack of attention to maintenance detail but it had everything we need and the cabins overlook a wonderful area of fever trees.

We were doing a self drive safari so didn't go into their reserve we went to Hluhluwe where there seemed to be quite a bit more in the way of big dame.

The staff made us feel that unwelcome that I will give just 1 bubble for this accomodation. Seemed that we were rather a burden than welcoming guests. So i will do everyone a favour and never go there anymore

Dear cwegma272834,

Kindly provide me with details regarding your statement. It is quite a serious complaint that I will have to investigate, as this type of behaviour is not tolerated by the company...

I do apologise for the negative experience you had during your stay.

after a great gamedrive which waas unfortunately very cold and windy we were really looking for hot shower. Unfortunately neither that evening nor the next morning was the warm water switched on. It is a nice place to stay but not in a cold spring night/morning.

This gave us a wonderful safari experience, with easy tours into the nearby Hluhluwe park. There were animals all around the the buffet dinners were especially good. Great staff and friendly service too.

Always amazing. Cannot say anything else than in my last reviews. Dear Ubizane staff: Thanks a lot for all. You all have made my stay so great again. Hope I will be back next year and see all your nice people again. Especially thanks to Ayanda of reservations and Alan, the best guide doing the game drives.

Everything about Ubizane Zululand Tree Lodge was fantastic. We were incredibly warmly received by Lungalo who was just amazingly friendly bubbly and welcoming. The place is gorgeous all round. Most notable was the myriad of buck and zebra grazing outside the restaurant and amidst the tree houses without a care in the world. The chalets were large, airy, spacey and comfortable. The shower was beautifully hot and everything was well catered for. The food was definitely a winner, even the vegetarian offerings which were generous and tasty. The service all round was a pleasure. Sithembile was amazing and her attention to great service was evident. The wildlife was out if this world. The crocodiles were charming, lazy and relaxed which added to the all round chilled feeling at Ubizane. Well worth another visit.
