Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs G from Huntingdon

"A lovely place to recover from the journey, lovely service and great food.

The room was quiet, clean and very attractive."

"Great location, especially being able to get into the dunes before the hordes arrived.

We loved sleeping on the roof under the stars.

The staff were very friendly and helpful."

"Very friendly welcome and we were very well looked after at breakfast.

The whole place is immaculately clean, although the smell of toilet cleaner was rather overwhelming in the small room.

Great location, easy to walk to restaurants etc."

"An absolutely beautiful lodge, very well run, in a stunning location. The guided walks were included with knowledgeable, friendly guides and a real highlight for me.

Food was very good and I loved being surrounded by wildlife.

Only downside was the insect bites as it had recently rained."

"I was disappointed there were no guided walks available but took the opportunity to just relax with the lovely views and friendly service. Game drives were available at extra cost but I didn't want more time in a vehicle.

The iigloo style room was very hot and we needed to use the air conditioning (the only time during the entire trip).

The chef was trying a bit too hard to be creative - amuse bouche cold soups were rather odd!"

"The only downside of this camp was the bruised coccyx from the very bumpy transfers and game drive to see the rhino. Other than that, it was a fabulous experience with the most lovely staff, guides and good food in a stunningly beautiful location.

It was very special seeing a mum and baby rhino close up, although slightly scary!"

"This camp is in the most wonderful location but ruined by poor design of the bar and restaurant, bad food and terrible service. The bar and restaurant were in tents with the flaps closed and completely failing to make the most of the spectacular views.

We had to carry our luggage up a steep hill to the room as the luggage van wasn't working, the staff were rude and unhelpful and the food was barely edible.

The room was attractive but in need of maintenance."

"After the poor experience at Dolomite Camp, my expectations were low but I was pleasantly surprised.

The room was spacious and comfortable, the staff were friendly, the food was ok and the waterhole was beautiful.

It was quiet when we were there but could be less pleasant if it was full as there are lots of rooms."

"I loved this place!

It was a magical wilderness experience (but not for anyone who doesn't like bugs!), Bruno was a fascinating guide and the walks twice a day were fabulous.

I will never forget this place and would love to go back."

"This felt a bit artificial after Mundulea, with the animals and humans kept in a 'safe zone' away from the predators in the 'danger zone' which could only be seen on expensive game drives. The room was beautiful with a great view of warthogs and springboks happily running around with no predators to worry about.

I liked being able to go on self-guided walks in the 'safe zone' but unfortunately late afternoon storms meant that we didn't get to see the cheetahs as the game drive was cancelled.

The service was good but the menu had no choice and the meat was tough and overcooked."

"Unfortunately damp and misty so couldn't see the views.

Food and service were very good but very noisy night with dogs barking and bush babies screeching and scratching all night!"

"A gorgeous place in a fantastic location, peaceful, friendly and just lovely."

"Not our favourite lodge, the location was great but too many guests after the peace and tranquility of Rhotia.

Food was mediocre but plentiful and beautiful birds to look at."

"Hard to put into words just how incredible this was! An amazing experience which provided a truly memorable wedding anniversary.

Jean was a brilliant guide, the food was delicious and we were looked after so well. I keep looking at the photos to remind myself how totally and utterly in the middle of beautiful nowhere we were, wow!"

"We were in Kati Kati B camp which had only just been set up. Again lovely service, beautiful location and very good food.

Very noisy night thanks to the lions, hyenas and stampeding wildebeest!"

"Much more luxurious than I expected! Stunning location and gorgeous room, the food was delcious and the staff were just lovely. Not a huge fan of the singing duo on our first evening (Swahili night on Fridays), they did go on a bit and Rod Stewart would be very unimpressed with their version of 'Sailing'!

I loved the infinity pool, particularly as the sea completely disappeared when the tide was out, but you could then walk miles. Very quiet place so not suitable for anyone wanting a lively location but ideal for relaxing after a busy safari.

Beware the rather large bar bill at the end - wine isn't cheap and a 5% credit card surcharge is added. Wifi is charged at $10 for entire stay but it only really works near reception."

"Really loved having this experience at the end of our trip. I had read 'The Last Slave Market' by Alastair Hazell and would really recommend it to give an understanding of Stonetown. The Coffee House was perfectly located, although we were a bit anxious about finding our way back after dark!

The rooftop terrace is very special for drinks (help yourself from a fridge and record in a book) and especially a delicious breakfast looking out on the rooftops.

The room was huge and very atmospheric but beware the stone steps to the bathroom - I have a very painful stubbed big toe!"
