"This place was simply excellent. Delicious food. Amazing views. It is right by one of the watering holes so every time we sat down for breakfast, lunch or dinner we saw family of elephants, zebras, even a lioness were just steps away! It was an amazing experience! Staff were friendly and polite. We stayed at one of the huts and it had its own little pool in the back. We would see wild animals strolling by while we watched them from the pool. Just perfection!"
