We had the pleasure of staying in the executive suite, and it was a delightful experience. We were particularly impressed by its privacy and seclusion, and the private pool added an extra layer of luxury to our stay. The room itself was spacious and exuded opulence. The staff members who took care of us were exceptionally warm and kind, going above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing short of fabulous. We received an exceptional level of warmth and kindness from the staff, surpassing any luxury resort experience we've had in Europe. Oupa, our breakfast and lunch server, became our favorite, and we absolutely adored him. Our culinary experiences were a true delight, spanning breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Our personal favorite was the dinner at the Boma. The menus included excellent vegan and vegetarian options. Our time here allowed us to create wonderful memories, and we are eager to return in the future. During our stay, we were fortunate enough to spot nearly all of the Big 5. Despite the modern facilities, the surroundings offered a genuine African bush life experience, leaving us feeling pampered and relaxed. Without a doubt, this experience was worth every penny.

Our accommodation, the whole setup, was huge, way bigger than expected. Huge comfy bed with mosquito netting, evening gowns, fantastic outside shower and relaxing bath with bath salt. Wish we could have stayed longer! Food galore, we honestly couldn't eat more during day two, we really enjoyed all the options during breakfast, lunch and dinner. Our gamedrives were unbelievable and at some stage we were joking that we see leopards more often than impala! Helen, our guide, was really informative, even learned our language on the way and cracking a few jokes, all made for good conversation!

Everything’s gorgeous, amazing, wonderful… it was such an amazing experience to stay in lodge. I am very upset to stay a 1 night. All the members were friendly. They made us feel like we stay at home. All the meals are exceptionally delicious. It was well selected menus and we enjoyed experience it a lot. Safari experience was something else. Our ranger is knowledgeable and experienced. Would definitely recommend stay in lush lodge.

Everything was perfect!! Probably the best hotel experience we ever had! Perfect welcoming, extremely friendly staff (without being too much), beautiful outside areas with amazing atmosphere created with oil lamps and candles, great experience on the fire pit over a drink and a great chat upon arrival from game drive, spotless pool area. Loved the “mi casa, tu casa” concept where we could help ourselves to the open bar. The sleeping room was beautiful and spotless clean. The food was amazing and the chefs really friendly, the high teas phenomenal…… we could go on and on and on about Tambuti. Go do yourselves a favour a book this lodge!

Breakfast could be improved with something like cereals, yogurt, different types of teas and hot drinks. The location cant be changed because it is in the national park, so it is good .

Love the bush views from the stoep bed and tub. Food is as excellent as ever. Staff cannot be more than accommodating. Being partially disabled the extra length the staff went to accommodate my needs was exceptional. All in all will be back for my fourth stay at either ivory or shepherds lodges. Once again. Thank you for my short breaks unforgettable 🐾🙏

The experience at the hotel was amazing. They asked us in advance what we would like to eat and if we had any dietary restrictions! The hotel's breakfast is incredible with many options. I would like to mention our safari experience at the Game Lodge; we had two guides, Sibu and Helen, both very knowledgeable and skilled. They showed special attention to my pregnant wife.

An overall great experience with extremely friendly staff. Nice food mostly served at the table which added to the exclusive experience of the place. Really well equipped cabins with outdoor showers. My son very impressed with the wifi even if our cabin was located quite far away from the main building. Last but not least mostly great safari drives. We managed to get on five fine drives in total during our stay. Didn't get to see all of the big five though. But still an amazing experience for us being first time on a safari lodge.

Lush Private Game Lodge is simply stunning, the location, facilities and interior design are flawless. The staff are incredibly welcoming, polite and friendly, always putting guests first. You really do feel special. The game rides out are brilliant and the rangers are great, so knowledgeable and make the whole experience worth while. I would highly recommend this venue for people looking for that luxury experience for a safari break.

I am very happy that I linked a businesstrip to Johannesburg with a weekend stay at the game lodge. Very nice and comfortable acommodation. Good facilities and great safaris. Going out before 5 in the morning seeing the wildlife was just amazing. The afternoon drives was also very nice. Very good meals at the lodge with a view to a waterhole.
