Seulement pour l emplacement
Pros:

Véritable intérêt de ce lieu est la proximité avec les rhino. La douche froide le matin à cause d un problème technique n a fait l objet d aucun geste.

Fantastique vue sur les rhinos
Pros:

Fantastique vue sur les rhinos de la terrasse.
Les points forts : bon accueil, chambre (n°4) propre, spacieuse, moustiquaire entourant le lit, SDB également très grande, eau bien chaude. Terrasse.
Chambre avec tout un pan de mur vitré donnant sur le point deau. Nous y avons observé différents animaux dont des rhinos qui ont l'habitude semble t il de s'arrêter à cet endroit. Chaque chalet a vue sur le point d'eau. Brasero le soir. Bar proposant des alcools et cocktails pas très chers. Menu 3 services fixes, excellent.
Belle infrastructure.
PDJ seulement partir de 7h30 et lenteur au service, un peu embêtant quand on veut partir tôt.

I rinoceronti non bastano
Pros:

Partiamo dall’inizio.
Come suggerito sul loro sito li contattiamo per prenotare:
1) Visita alla riserva
2) massaggio
Per la visita ci viene detto che non è assicurata i. Quanto non hanno altre prenotazioni e minimo è per 4 persone (sul sito dice due)
Per il massaggio viene confermato


Arrivo alla reception
La proprietaria fa il check in e ci dice che il giro si fa in quanto hanno trovato altre persone, nulla sul massaggio.
Accoglienza gelida e nessuna spiegazione sulla struttura, tranne che la piscina non funzionava.

Ci viene data la camera, carina ma sporca, detriti di uccelli alle pareti (da foto), bagno datato e mai manutenzionato)

Escursione nella riserva
Nonostante il ragazzo sia stato molto bravo non abbiamo visto quasi nulla in quanto l’escursione viene fatta non con il solito mezzo in uso nei lodge ma con un vero e proprio camion enorme e rumorosissimo che farebbe scappare anche le persone, non solo gli animali.

Prima cena
Commestibile tranne il dolce immangiabile (come da foto)
Chiude il ristorante e chiude il bar, tutti intorno al fuoco nel giardino ma neanche la possibilità di un cocktail.

Colazione mediocre

L’indomani quando chiediamo conferma dell’orario del massaggio veniamo informati che non è possibile perché la massaggiatrice lavora solo mezza giornata.

Avendo il giorno libero chiediamo alla signora cosa poter fare come escursioni.
Risposta: non lo so, rivolgetevi ad altri lodge.
Così facciamo, con un’ora di macchina, andiamo al “prossimo” lodge

Pros:

Bei Ankunft unerwartet freundlicher Empfang durch eine Nashornfamilie und diverse andere pelzige und gefiederte Freunde am von der Lodge erstellten Wasserloch :-) Angst vor diesen frei herum laufenden Tieren darf man keine haben, sonst schafft man es nicht aufs Zimmer. Wir haben in den Betten wie auf Wolken geschlafen. Service und Essen waren gut. Es war ein wunderbarer Anfang unserer Reise!

Rhino experience awesome - lodge dismal
Pros:

When we arrived there was nobody at reception, then were told our stay was cancelled even though it wasn’t. Service in every area terrible, have to look for someone if you want to order a drink. Seeing the rhinos is amazing and could be the only thing that people would travel for. This lodge has so much potential to be so much better but there is zero enthusiasm by anybody on the property.

Lugnt och rogivande
Pros:

Helt bedårande atmosfär. Noshörningar, antiloper betar alldeles utanför stugorna / uteplatserna. På kvällen tändes en lägereld där man kunde sitta och titta på solnedgången och stjärnhimlen i den afrikanska natten.

Excellent
Pros:

Hôtel très agréable, propre et en très bon état.
Rien à redire à l'accueil.
Très bonne cuisine
Une bonne surprise de voir les Rhinoceros s'approcher à moins de 20 mètres de la chambre en fin de journée.
Je recommande !

Pros:

Wir haben eine Nacht hier verbracht und waren sehr zufrieden. Essen, Ausstattung und Personal waren super. Das absolute Highlight waren die "Gäste" am Abend. Zum Sonnenuntergang hatten wir Nashörner und Antilopen zu Besuch.

Pros:

The houses are all in the same grey colour, what makes the athmosphere strange in the beginnung. Some colour on the walls would make it more friendly.
And in the bathrooms there is an avoidible echo.
The rhinos and other animals in the evening were great.
