    rough access roads
    limited dinner options

    While the overall experience was enjoyable, I felt disappointed by the access roads that were quite rough for our rental car, making the journey to the camp much longer than expected. the limited dinner menu options, largely focused on venison and chicken, didn't cater well to diverse tastes and left little room for variety. I found desserts underwhelming compared to the quality of the mains, which didn’t meet the expectations set by the previous courses.

    access roads
    crowded dining

    Could this be the unicorn we’re all looking for?

    The friendly staff truly felt like family, creating an inviting atmosphere where every interaction was warm and sincere! A horseback safari provided a magical way to explore the beautiful landscape and wildlife!

    A bit of a trek to reach the camp, unpaved roads did challenge our vehicle. Some evenings, the dining area felt overcrowded, detracting slightly from the overall experience!

    Our stay was nothing short of incredible! The spacious luxury tent was beautifully designed, with a great bathroom and a lovely terrace. The game drives were a highlight, with our guide Ion sharing fascinating insights about the wildlife and the meaningful conservation efforts underway. The dining experience was memorable, with each meal exceeding expectations, although I did feel the dinner prices were a bit steep compared to the options on the menu.

    The home-made food was excellent and really hit the mark, especially the breakfast which I wholeheartedly recommend. The overall experience was enjoyable, with several unique touches that made our stay memorable.

    Getting to the camp was a bit of a trek. the stony roads can test your rental car's limits, especially if you’re not in a 4WD. It’s manageable but may take longer than expected, and I'd suggest taking some snacks if you’re watching your budget since the restaurant prices can add up, especially for larger groups. The desserts fell short compared to the mains and starters, which was a slight disappointment.

    The wildlife experience was extraordinary, with wild animals roaming freely around the camp providing a unique sense of immersion. Staff were incredibly friendly, ensuring a warm welcome and personalized attention throughout the stay. Meals featured organic fruits, and the culinary offerings exceeded expectations, though dessert options could use improvement. The rough access roads may challenge some vehicles, particularly for those unprepared for rugged terrain.

    Best stay ever!

    Waking up to bird calls and a lion's roar was surreal. Lufuno, our guide, was super passionate and taught us tons about the local wildlife. The outdoor shower was a blast, especially under the stars! Food was delicious, but the dining area felt a bit crowded at times.

    Wow, what an adventure! The team really loves what they do (you can feel it! ). The outdoor shower was such a unique experience, especially under the stars. Waking up to lions and bird calls just tops it all.

    Absolutely nothing to criticize.
