Wir waren für 3 Nächte in der Bushbaby Lodge und haben es sehr genossen. Sie liegt in einem geschlossene, grossen Wildreservat. Freddie und Sabine, ehemals aus Deutschland, und ihr Team sind perfekte Gastgeber. Unser Rhino Cottage war wunderschön. Alles was man braucht ist vorhanden und in der Bar kann man sich jederzeit Getränke holen. Besonders schön war die Außendusche, die jedes der Cottages hat. In den sehr bequemen Betten schläft man, in der himmlischen Ruhe dieser Umgebung, wunderbar. Kaum hatten wir in der Dämmerung die Lodge verlassen, liefen uns Giraffen und Zebras über den Weg. Warzenschweine und Antilopen besuchten das Grundstück regelmäßig. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und besonders die fluffigen Pancakes waren ein Gedicht! Zum Essen fährt man am Abend in den Ort (10 Minuten Fahrt). Dort gibt's zahlreiche sehr gute Restaurants. Wir würden diese Lodge jederzeit wieder buchen.

This lodge is an amazing place in the wildlife estate, just come out of your room and you'll see impalas and monkeys running around, and the beautiful birds singing. The rooms are spacious and everything is kept clean, the outdoor shower is also nice, all working properly. Breakfasts are unbelievably delicious, smoothie with banana just incredible!!! Very many thanx to Lani the host, who was so helpful, attentive to everything and even solving my problems which were not on her part.

We had a fantastic experience at Bushbaby River Lodge and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Communication with the staff was seamless, ensuring everything was perfectly arranged even before our arrival. The breakfast options were delightful, offering a variety of choices such as waffles, pancakes, French toast, and a classic English breakfast—something for everyone to enjoy. The heat pump/air conditioner worked flawlessly, making our stay comfortable regardless of the temperature outside. The facilities were spotless, with warm water readily available and a refreshing pool to relax in. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Conveniently located just 15 minutes from the airport, the lodge is also surrounded by wildlife, offering a serene and immersive experience. For those interested, the staff can help arrange game drives, making it easy to explore the incredible nature and wildlife in the area. Overall, Bushbaby River Lodge is a gem that combines comfort, convenience, and a touch of the wild. We look forward to returning!

Eine sehr schöne und saubere Lodge, die ich jedem weiterempfehlen kann. Das Essen war großartig und das Personal super gastfreundlich und nett. Vor allem das Braai (typisch südafrikanisch und ungefähr vergleichbar mit einem BBQ), welches man im Voraus vorbestellen kann, ist wirklich fantastisch. Es ist einfach ein sehr toller Ort zum entspannen.
