The fact that I had to share and wasn't informed, I wasn't allowed to braai and I was charged for bringing my own drinks. The food was too expensive

Highly recommended.
Pros:

Lovely place in a delightful location and very conveniently situated. We were welcomed by the lovely Shirley who went over and above to make sure we had everything we needed.

Cons:

Our room had a lovely aspect and it was good to be able to leave our door open with the screen in place. The only negative was that the room was a little bit small although we were able to use the lounge right next to the room to relax.

Pros:

Shirley made us feel welcome even before we arrived and made sure all our needs are catered for. The staff were very friendly, Linda decorated our room for my wife's birthday and David, the chef made the most delicious food. The room was spacious, luxurious and neat. Huge bath tub and shower with scented body wash, lotion, conditioner ect.

Cons:

There was nothing that we didn't like

If you're looking for luxury surrounded by trees as a base to explore Hoedspruit and Kruger
Pros:

True to pictures and description, and with a viewing deck providing view over the truly well preserved bush of the estate. Lovely pool. Rooms/suites most definitely luxurious and decor and design in good taste. Really nothing to fault. We enjoyed breakfast AND dinner under the trees - atmospheric and wonderful. Food well prepared and with care - thanks Constance! Really nothing to fault.

Cons:

The location is indicated as a "bush villa" in Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate. Which might to some, if you are not careful, create the impression of more secluded in-the-bush-experience, which it is unfortunately not, as the neighbours are very close and voices can be heard. The offering for game drives is not on site. True that animals (we saw 1 giraffe, 1 nyala, 1 duiker and 2 hedgehogs) are free roaming in the estate, but dont be under the impression that you are visiting a lodge in a game reserve. Dinner option definitely overpriced in comparison and despite the excellent quality of food and preparation.

We booked this accommodation last minute due to the weather changing our plans and I could not recommend the villa more
Pros:

Rooms were lovely, and the bath and outdoor shower were particular highlights. The outdoor pool and viewing terrace of the animals was also great. The main highlight was the breakfast - we were spoilt with two courses by the chef which were both so tasty. Lastly the friendliness of the staff made us feel so welcome and at home during our stay, including helping us book a last minute safari tour much was arranged seamlessly.

Cons:

Nothing - we would go back in a heartbeat!
