We had a lovely two nights stay in Emdoneni Lodge. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. Our accommodation was clean, attractive and roomy. The food was excellent with a good choice on the menu. We enjoyed a visit to the Cat Project and a guided trip to Hluhluwe with a knowledgeable guide.

We spent two nights at Emdoleni and had a very comfortable stay. We were caught-out a little by the fact that the rates we were quoted didn't include any meals.

Since 2008 I come to this lovely , friendly beautiful lodge and the owners Cecillie and Louis became close friends. Their kindness is reflecting on all the staff and this year I came with my son and wife. Camilo was excited to see the Zulu cat center and he became a certified junior ranger!! A stay we´ll never forget! Thanks to all, thanks Rebecca and Ingrid and all the staff, love you:-)

We went back to Emdoneni for our 5th time, the 1st since Covid. They managed to retain most of the original staff and we were pleased to see so many people we remembered, and who remembered us. The cat project was educational and entertaining and it was good to be so close to the cats being looked after so well. The accommodation was perfect as usual and the food was excellent. We took the 3 night package so we got to do the hippo cruise, elephant interaction and game drive in Hluhluwe Imfolozi game reserve, as well as the cat tour. We will be back.
