An absolutely wonderful weekend breakaway. Rene and staff can be super proud of what they have done at South Safari Lodge. It is a bush breakaway with just that extra bit of luxury to make the stay extremely comfortable. We went during a heat wave with temperatures in the high 40 degrees Celsius and between the AC in the rooms and the swimming pool on your doorstep it was still comfortable and enjoyable. Rene is also a very attentive host that was super efficient with all our requests and it seemed as if nothing we asked where to much for him to arrange. He even surprised us with a bottle of bubbly in the room as well as a few festive balloons at breakfast when he heard that it was my wife's birthday. There where absolutely nothing we could fault during our stay as even when things did go wrong Rene was at hand to communicate the issues at hand and to propose alternatives or timelines. It's also rewarding to be able to wake up in the morning, and to open your door, to be welcomed with Zebra at your doorstep, wildebeest sleeping under the trees and geckos and other wildlife running around. South Safari Lodge is a true gem in Marloth Park and a place that should be visited more than once.
