The Staff is amazing, they do what they can to make this the perfect holiday for you. We had the apartment with a private pool viewing towards the park, it was huge, well equipped and very clean. The day starts at 5 AM with waking up, first Game drive roughly from 5:30 til 8:30, breakfast at 9:00. Then you can have a bush walk or go to a hide&view place or just relax. At 14:30 lunch is served. 16:30 the evening game drive starts and you are back for dinner at 21:00. (This was in March, schedule changes based on sunrise/set) The food was excellent and plenty to eat. The game drives were the absolute highlight, we saw the big 5 and many more animals in just two days. The price is definitely great for what you are getting and also fair compared to other Lodges. We 100% staying at Naledi!

Everything was perfect from start to finish — from Victoria’s kindness to Johnathan, who was an excellent guide during our safaris. The place is stunning and the food is excellent. You can go there with complete confidence.

Great staff, great food! Guides were very knowledgeable and went out of their way to make sure we saw as many animals as possible. James, the owner would join us for breakfast each morning and shared his knowledge about the area which we enjoyed. We stayed in a newly renovated room which was lovely.

The best experience. Spent 12 days on safari over 5 lots of accommodation, some basic and some the top of the range and this was by far the best experience. Small beautiful in/keeping camp with only 3 luxury tents, and the staff were just great. And importantly, so were the animals. Animals at all times treated with respect by knowledgeable, cool, calm guides Hardus and Niel. It was simply the best. Great cooking too Hardus 🍖. Plenty of water holes around so you will see animals, close by too. Day and night. (Worth noting not all parks had water sources or they were dried up and so, naturally, the animals were elsewhere.)

Everything exceeded my expectations, The reserve was phenomenal, the lodge and staff were great especially Leanne our game ranger. She made sure she found us the big five and much more in 2 days. The best lodge and reserve I've ever been to, we absolutely loved every minute of it.

We were the only guests, and were given a free upgrade to the chalet with private pool. The host and gardener were also very kind and helpful. We greatly enjoyed spotting smaller wildlife from the hide out during the sunset and sunrise, and the peace and quiet of the stay. During the night we were visited by a honey badger twice that tried to get into the cupboards and fridge, some excitement for sure!
