Very pleasant
Pros:

The location was excellent. Thought they could have enhanced the experience by offering sunset cruises

Cons:

It would have been useful to have a microwave and plates, etc. in the room, as we did cater for ourselves for a couple of meals. But we were able to get from the kitchen

Owner over zealous, need to calm down so that guests can enjoy themselves.
Pros:

Convenient location

Cons:

We booked one year in advance, when we checked in two of our rooms were given to other people, unfortunately we had to share units. Advertised restaurant, non existent.

Bon séjour
Pros:

Le lieu est très sympa, au bord de la rivière
Lit King size très confortable dans les chalets

Cons:

Hors saison les camping sont assez vides, restaurant fermés, impression que nous n’étions pas attendus malgré la réservation, pas de coin cuisine pour se faire à manger ?

Pros:

Location and facilites were great, albeit small touches to room prep were missing (e.g. no milk or sugar for complimentary coffee; a bottle of drinking water in room would have also been a thoughtful touch).

Cons:

Prices as advertised on Bookimg.com were not charged ("problem with booking.com"). Initial amended prices proposed also didn't align to other platforms where prices were advertised. Although we settled on an agreed price in the end - the principle of not charging advertised prices is not acceptable. In addition, host is to also ipdate advertising to indicate that restaurant is no longer functioning.

This was a two night rest up stay prior to our heading out on Safari. We enjoyed the locale, and it was a relaxing place
Pros:

The location, right on the river was excellent!
We were there early in the season and pretty much had the place to ourselves.

Cons:

$$$. Access—. O airport shuttle service. Without our own vehicle it was a pain and expensive to get to and from town. Meals were not available which was a PITA (pain-in-the-ass).

Einfaches romatisches Camp am Fluss
Pros:

Wir waren die einzigen Gäste und wurden trotzdem vom urigen Typen Mike willkommen geheissen. Wir hatten ein schönes voll ausgestattetes Zelt direkt am Fluss , mit Nilpferd!
Haben sehr gut und ruhig geschlafen!
Sehr gutes Preis Leistungs Verhältnis.

Cons:

Zufahrt ist per Google nicht leicht zu finden.
Da nicht klar war, dass das Restaurant geschlossen ist, mussten wir zum Abendessen zum Nachbarcamp fahren - war ok.

Nice beautiful and clean with disappointing directions and restaurant.
Pros:

The host was was a beautiful, friendly and helpful lady.

Cons:

They are not listed on Tracks 4 Africa or on Garmin maps or Maps.Me. Were struggling with internet on my phone so couldn’t connect to Google like a found them in the first place. They have a beautiful restaurant and Bar area but it was closed. That wasn’t nice after a long day of driving.

Pros:

A nice overnight stop, especially when travelling West. The water made for a nice setting although the miggies were many.

Cons:

Only one chair on the deck was perhaps an oversight?
