    I always stay in a lodge where the staff once found my lost ring. It has free Wi-Fi, parking, an outdoor pool, air conditioning. Perfect for my city trip with fishing, laundry, and a bar.

    This place is absolutely mind-blowing! The location is super peaceful, with jaw-dropping views of the river. The aircon keeps you cool, and the cleaning service is top-notch. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. And let me tell you, the hippos are a nice attraction - we saw and heard them throughout our stay. Plus, the birdlife here is just stunning. this place is a hidden gem for nature lovers like me.

    Loved the open plan deck with outdoor kitchen, great for pretending to be a master chef. Also enjoyed the on-site restaurant with delicious food and the view of the river was fabulous.

    The wired internet in public areas was sooo convenient, because who doesn't love a slow and unreliable internet connection?

    The Timber Log Chalets at this lodge were like a cozy cabin straight out of a fairytale. Surrounded by a picturesque garden and with a deck overlooking the river, the chalet felt like a peaceful haven amidst nature. The open plan deck with a kitchen and dining area was perfect for enjoying meals while taking in the beautiful views. It was truly a magical experience!

    Lack of food options.

    Loved the open plan deck with outdoor kitchen and dining area, perfect for enjoying meals. The garden and outdoor pool were great, but not as great as the wired internet in the public areas, super fast!

    Oh, the joy of driving on a rutted road, just what I needed to test my driving skills. *rolls eyes*

    Our stay at the lodge was absolutely lovely. The extensive garden was a beautiful and peaceful area for our kids to safely play in. The self-catering chalet had all the amenities we needed and more. The view from the lodge was stunning, with hippos and various waterbirds in the well-groomed area.
