Verified review
We felt like we were treated like old relatives, not tourists. Management and staff only too happy to please. The setting is beautiful. You can walk in the morning and see Kudu Wildebeest etc. Many room options I think would suit all needs. Not 5 star but very good value. October is quiet but I suggest go then.
