We had no particular expectations of this lodge, as we booked it purely as a mid-priced pit-stop on our South African driving holiday, but we were very pleasantly surprised.
Our room (on stilts) was clean and comfortable, with an excellent shower area. The restaurant buzzed at night with plenty of very happy guests enjoying a good buffet with simple but tasty dishes. Waiters were friendly and efficient. Breakfast was very good.
There are some oddities (crocodiles fenced in around a small pond, a forlorn and gloomy aviary) that give the place a slightly strange 1950s feel, but overall we enjoyed our stop here and would recommend it for its comfortable accommodation, pleasant staff and good food. We believe it offers excellent value.
