I enjoyed our stay very much, was impressed by the service.

Stay and service was top class. My recommendations would be just for the service at the restaurant. Service was a bit poor considering one had to wait nearly 20 minutes to be served.

Baie lekker.

Bona Bona was 'n lekker wegbreek in die middel van die week. Hoewel dit 'n sakereis was, het dit soos vakansie gevoel. Die restaurant kyk uit op 'n watergat en mens kan net ontspan en kyk hoe die diere water kom drink. Die kos was amazing. Die restaurant se pryse is ook baie billik.

Very nice.

Bona Bona was a nice break in the middle of the week. Although it was a business trip, it felt like a vacation. The restaurant overlooks a watering hole and you can just relax and watch the animals come to drink water. The food was amazing. The restaurant's prices are also very reasonable.

Dit is voorwaar 'n plek om te sien, alles is skoon en perfek, die personeel is trots op wat hul doen, nie een se taak is te gering, die tuin en omgewing is 'n lus vir die oog. Die restuarant se kos was heerlik, ontvangs is vriendelik en professioneel, die dekor is ongelooflik mooi.

The accommodation was well worth the money spent. We will definitley be back.

Resort was comfortable and we could do nothing but relax. Service by the waiters could have been better. A nice touch at breakfast would have been to be offered coffee refills at your tables. Waitrons were often standing around and not clearing dishes that were empty. Jugs of fresh flavoured or bottled water would have also been most welcome. Reception staff lacks FAD and customer service. Food was great but stock shortages were a problem by Sunday evening. Game drive was good. Thank you to Luke, our guide, he was amazing. We will however be back again. Thank you.

Altyd lekker om by Bona Bona te bly. Netjies en skoon en die kos is heerlik.

Al wat sleg was die keer; ons het 'n Predators Drive geboek die oggend vir die namiddag, halfses, maar die voertuig het nooit opgedaag nie. Ons het 'n uur gewag en naderhand ons ekskursie gekanselleer. Die kinders was nogal ontsteld, want hul wou graag die leeus gaan sien het.

All that was bad at the time; we booked a Predators Drive in the morning for the afternoon, half past five, but the vehicle never arrived. We waited an hour and subsequently canceled our excursion. The children were quite upset, because they wanted to go and see the lions.

What a blessed time we had at Bona Bona Game Lodge. From the incredibly beautiful interior design of the honeymoon suite to the food at the restaurant. We received fantastic service from the beautiful waiter called Sophy. The game drive was a treat from the beginning to the end. Will recommend this lodge any day. Thank you.

Nice rooms, POOR reception.

Very nice location and neat setup. Flew in and tried several times to call all the numbers on their website, sent emails and got no response. Upon receipt, they first wanted to see my proof of payment and immediately sent it through and went to wait in the restaurant. 3 hours later I went again to find out if the e-mail had come through. Still there was nothing. The receptionist then said that they had been struggling with their epos for a long time. In the end they saw the email I sent. Couldn't check in a minute before 2pm. Was pointed in the direction where the room is (which is 400m away) and had to walk there with luggage. Room was not clearly marked and we tried to open some doors with our key. A gardener then came by and showed us where our room was. Could never get it myself. As luck would have it, they were building next door and it was making a lot of noise. It was a Monday evening and the lodge was dead silent. They really could have given us another room and just made a little effort. We were there from 10 o'clock and asked if we could perhaps check in a little earlier because we had flown in and had no other transport at the lodge. Also requested this by email before we arrived. Then wanted to go swimming to cool off but the pool was dirty and the rubbish bin next to the pool overflowed. The rest of the staff were extremely friendly. I will only make a plan with the little faces you see first when you get there, because they make you not enjoy it.

Beautiful location, facilities not 4-star.

Bona Bona is a beautiful location and a lovely small game reserve. Our experience with the accommodation and food in the restaurant was not so good, unfortunately. When we checked in to our two rooms, Big Five Room 2 and Big Five Room 5, Room 2 was OK but had a steep, unbanistered staircase to the top floor room which was not suitable for our 3-year-old (this room needs a banister or hand rail for safety). Room 5 was beautifully renovated with the best private outdoor space which I was excited to stay in, with load shedding being an issue in SA, when we went to use the power sockets and they didn't work I presumed it was load shedding and we left the room to use the amenities. On return, I noted the power was still off in Room 5 and checked with Room 2 to find theirs was OK, so we told reception and they said it was too late at 5pm as the maintenance team went home for the day. The young receptionist was helpful and gave us Room 1 in the Big 5 for the night only but this room was sub standard compared to Room 5. She promised Room 5 would be fixed in the morning and we could go back to it then. Morning came and the room was not fixed! We agreed to wait until after breakfast and she would call us in the morning when it was ready, no phone call! We went back at 5 pm and they then said we couldn't go in the room due to drainage issues which was quickly retracted by management. I had had enough by this point and told the manager that we had been given a sub standard room overnight that was unacceptable and they should offer a goodwill gesture or pay us back some of the money we paid for room 5. She came back after discussions with management and insulted us with a R250 voucher for dinner in their restaurant, however, we spent a lot more on the rooms and in their restaurant and they could only offer us £12.50 compensation! Insult! Additionially whilst the gentleman manager of the restaurant was really great, the service from some of the other staff was poor and the prices high for the very small portions my partner had received on both nights. Also a big shock is the swimming pool which we did go to had the most disgusting green-brown water which is not reflective of a 4-star hotel, we used the poolside for sunbathing and playing our own cards mainly. This accommodation does not warrant a 4-star and reflects 3 stars only. Their spa facilities however deserves 4 stars as this was newly renovated and lovely. Big changes and better service is required here from the maintenance team being available, small things like offering bottles of complimentary water in the rooms for the 1st night, rooms being 100% inspected during cleaning before check-in and ensuring they are fully functioning, safety assessed in all rooms and amendments made, food portions reassessed for prices charged and some of the staff requiring further hospitality training to ensure they understand the value of servicing customers to a higher standard. Even just making sure they don't make customers feel like they are being demanding when actually it's simple courtesy and listening to reasonable customer requests. Definitely need to be classed as 3 star!

Fantastic setting, clean and comfortable chalets, good food and then of course the game park setting.

Exceptional value for money. Very worthwhile visit. Positive criticism, screen doors on chalets would allow natural air flow, while keeping the bugs and mosquitoes out.

A great venue for our 32 years anniversary.

Everything was most amazing except the ''predator'' game drive. It is sad from beginning to (no) end. We can't accept animals is kept in sub standard circumstances with no value add as to conservation and education. The only reason must be in bragging and rich peoples ignorance.

Family with young children

Oornagstop tussen Gauteng en Kaap.

Ongelooflike mooi en stylvolle kamers en infrastraktuur. Die kinderspeelarea, restaurant met uitkykdek en swembad is besonders en nuut. Die netheid van die lodge kort wel fokus. Drank en water bottels staan in swembad en restaurantarea rond. Ons kamer se vloer was nie gewas nie - met koffiemerke op die vloer en ons handdoek het bruin merke op gehad. Dit is alles gerapporteer en is vinnig reggestel. Game drives is goed geprys. Kan dit as 'n alternatief tot self-catering voorstel as mens tussen Gauteng en Kaap reis.

Overnight stop between Gauteng and Cape.

Incredibly beautiful and stylish rooms and infrastructure. The children's play area, restaurant with observation deck and swimming pool are special and new. The cleanliness of the lodge does lack focus. Drink and water bottles are around the pool and restaurant area. Our room's floor was not washed - with coffee marks on the floor and our towel had brown marks on it. This was all reported and was quickly fixed. Game drives are well priced. Can suggest this as an alternative to self-catering if traveling between Gauteng and Cape.

Rustig en asemrowend.

Bona Bona was presies wat ons nodig gehad het. Dit is so rustig en rerig 'n plekkie om weg te breek van die besige wêreld. Die enigste ding wat ek sal voorstel aan Bona Bona is om na die bedens te kyk. Dit is ongelooflik hard en ek en my vrou het elke oggend met 'n seer lyf opgestaan. Behalwe vir dit, was daar nie 1 ding om oor te kla nie! Kos en diens is fantasties! Baie dankie!

Lekker ervaring.

Ons het slegs vir een aand die Honeymoon-suite bespreek. Die Honeymoon-suite het nie 'n uitsig nie. Die kamer en badkamer is baie mooi en skoon. Daar is 'n klein dek aan die buitekant met twee sonstoele. Hierdie dek en stoele was vol blare en nie gevee nie. Dis die enigste negatiewe ding wat ons ervaar het. Die game drive en predator viewing was baie lekker en jy sien alles van baie naby. Die renosters het reg langs ons geëet toe ons sundowners drink en aandete geëet het. Was 'n baie lekker ervaring.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Nice experience.

We booked the Honeymoon Suite for one night only. The Honeymoon Suite does not have a view. The room and bathroom are very nice and clean. There is a small deck outside with two sun loungers. This deck and chairs were full of leaves and not swept. That's the only negative thing we experienced. The game drive and predator viewing were very nice and you see everything very close. The rhinos ate right next to us as we drank sundowners and ate dinner. Was a very nice experience.

Teleurgesteld.

Die skottelgoed was nie behoorlik skoon nie. Die broodbord het nog van die vorige gaste se kaas opgehad. Sigaretstompies het rondgelê by die buitetafel en braaiplek. Rondom die chalet lê 'n sinkplaat ('n gevaar vir mens en dier), stukke bouafval en beton. Nie iets wat jy wil sien as jy in die natuur wil wees nie. En dit pas nie by 'n 4 ster-gradering Lodge nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Disappointed.

The dishes were not properly cleaned. The breadboard still had some of the previous guests' cheese. Cigarette stubs were lying around at the outside table and braai area. Around the chalet is a corrugated iron (a danger to humans and animals), pieces of building waste and concrete. Not something you want to see if you want to be in nature. And it doesn't fit a 4 star rated Lodge.

Pragtige plek, net jammer vir die funksie.

Ek het bespreek vir my vrou en my 12 jarige dogter om bietjie alleen te gaan ontspan. Ongelukkig het die een of ander munisipaliteit 'n workshop aangebied die hele week en hulle moes van vroegaand af in hulle klein kamertjie sonder 'n televisie deurbring. Ek sou dit baie waardeer het as Bona Bona vereis het dat die betrokke munisipaliteit die hele lodge moes uitboek aangesien daar glo slegs enkele kamers nie deur hulle gebruik is nie, of dat Bona Bona my darem meegedeel het van die funksie.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Beautiful place, just a shame about the feature.

I booked for my wife and my 12 year old daughter to go and relax a bit alone. Unfortunately, some municipality offered a workshop all week and they had to spend the early evening in their small room without a television. I would have appreciated it very much if Bona Bona had required that the municipality in question had to book out the entire lodge as apparently only a few rooms were not used by them, or that Bona Bona had at least informed me of the function.

Lekker as jy een is vir luukse toerisme, maar nie vir natuurliefhebbers van die Krugerwildtuin-tipe nie.

Die etes en uitsig by die restaurant was 'n hoogtepunt en die blyplek netjies. Ons het die natuurervaring wel as gekommersialiseerd beleef. 'n Mens kan slegs die veld en die diere van naderby geniet deur op een van Bona Bona se wildsritte te gaan of deur die leeus en roofdiere in hul kampe te gaan bekyk - dit alles natuurlik teen 'n fooi. Dit was vir my hartseer om die leeus (en ander roofdiere) in tuin-grootte-kampe te sien woon. Ek sou graag by Bona Bona wou weet of daar enige vooruitsigte is dat hulle na groter areas verskuif kan word (soos die kampe waarin die swartwitpense byvoorbeeld aangehou word)?

Nice if you are one for luxury tourism, but not for nature lovers of the Kruger National Park type.

The meals and view at the restaurant were a highlight and the accommodation neat. We did experience the nature experience as commercialized. One can only enjoy the field and the animals up close by going on one of Bona Bona's game drives or by going to see the lions and predators in their camps - all this, of course, for a fee. It was sad for me to see the lions (and other predators) living in garden-sized camps. I would like to know from Bona Bona if there is any prospect of them being moved to larger areas (such as the camps in which the sables are kept for example)?

Bona Bona Game Lodge 's response

Goeie dag Esmari. En baie dankie vir jou terugvoer.

Ons wil wel noem dat ons onsself nooit adverteer as die wildtuin tipe bestemming nie. Ons adverteer glad nie dat gaste hul eie wildsritte kan onderneem nie, dus was u nie onder 'n vals indruk geplaas voor u Bona Bona besoek het nie.

Ons kan nie die wildsritte gratis doen nie daar is baie onkostes verbonde daaraan om so 'n plek te onderhou. En ek verwys spesifiek na die wilds afdeling; drade, personeël, krippe, dieresorg, veaarts en ander mediese kostes voer, infrastruktuur ens. Daarom moet ons vir gaste 'n fooi vra wanneer hulle die wild wil besigtig.

Die leeus, tiere ens se kampe se groottes word bepaal deur natuurbewaring. Ons kampe is inteendeel groter as die voorgeskrewe mates soos ontvang vanaf natuurbewaring. Hierdie diere word versorg met die grootste liefde en aandag, waar ons hulle gesondheid ook kan monitor en veaartseny dienste laat kom indien benodig.

Ongelukkig in 2019 is dit net nie oral in SA moontlik om wilde leeus, tiere, hiennas, luiperds, jagluiperds vry te laat rondloop nie. Dit is 'n heel ander benadering as 'n reservaat so iets wil implementeer, waarvoor ons admirasie het. Ons voel steeds dat Bona Bona wel 'n bestemming is vir natuurliefhebbers. Aangesien die Kruger wildtuin nie in almal se begroting pas of maklik bereikbaar is nie kan gaste steeds nader aan die huis 'n tikkie natuur beleef vir 'n fraksie van die prys. En dit is ons voorreg om dit aan gaste te bied.

Bona Bona Game Breeders is alom bekend in die industrie en het al toekennings ontvang vir Groen toerisme. Dit is die Ernst-familie se prioriteit om nauurbewaring te bevorder 'n projek waaraan ons al meer as 20 jaar werk en investeer.

Indien u enige verdere navrae het kan u gerus vir ons 'n epos stuur.

Rustig en absoluut fantasties!

Ons het 3 kamers bespreek vir die aand, op aankoms is ons welkom ontvang en ons kamers gewys, een kamer se deur het 'n probleem gehad en hulle het ons dadelik geskuif sonder probleme. Ons was in 'n executive room nommer een, alles in die kamer was reg, sal net voorstel om die aircons op te gradeer en die dakwaaiers te laat werk, maar nietemin was dit baie lekker. Ons het aandete gaan eet in die restaurant, ons het vir 2 ure lank gesit en 5 renosters het reg onder ons tafel geëet, dit was 'n besonderse ervaring. Die kelners en veral die bestuurder was baie behulpsaam en niks was vir hulle te veel moeite nie. Kos is uitstekend! In die oggend wei die bokkie reg teen jou stoep, dis was heerlik. Ons sal weer terug wees.

We booked 3 rooms for the evening, on arrival we were greeted and shown our rooms, one room's door had a problem and they moved us straight away with no problems. We were in an executive room number one, everything in the room was fine, would only suggest upgrading the aircons and getting the ceiling fans to work, but nevertheless it was very nice. We went to have dinner in the restaurant, we sat for 2 hours and 5 rhinos ate right under our table, it was a special experience. The waiters and especially the manager were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them. Food is excellent! In the morning the goat grazes right next to your porch, it was delicious. We will be back again.

Stilte in die natuur.

Ons was voorheen by Bona en dit het ons stoutste verwagtinge oortref. Alles was perfek. Met ons aankoms hierdie keer was daar bietjie chaos by ontvangs a.g.v. die rekenaar sisteem wat ingegee het. Dit bly 'n baie mooi plek, skoon en netjies en jy kan beslis rustig wees in die natuur. As jy wil rus gaan jy beslis hier lekker kan ontspan.

Die verblyf, kos en diens was voortreflik.

'n Trots Suid Afrikaanse produk! Sal dit enige tyd aanbeveel. Al negatiewe kommentaar wat ek het was die tier wat in die klein hokkie naby Ontvangs aangehou word. Ons was baie ontsteld oor die grootte van die hok en dat daar nie water beskikbaar was nie. Daar was twee staalbakke in die hok, maar beide was omgegooi. Ons is baie lief vir diere en dit het my baie ontstel.

There were two steel bowls in the cage but both were turned over. We love animals and this really upset me.

Goeie dag Annetjie! Baie dankie vir julle terugvoer ons waardeer dit.

Rakende Zara - vanselfsprekend is ons ook baie lief vir diere. Zara is met die hand grootgemaak en daarom kon ons jaar ten minste 2 keer per dag uitlaat saam met ons wildbewaarder. Vir veiligheidsredes kan ons haar nie uitlaat wanneer gaste in die nabye omtrek is nie. Sy word geskuif op die 8ste Julie na haar nuwe kamp (ons was net besig met die voorbereiding volgense Natuurbewaring se voorskrifte). Ons waardeer u omgee vir ons diere! Maar moenie bekommerd wees nie - hulle welstand is ons eerste prioriteit!

Expect a little more from this 4-star accommodation.

The stay was pleasant, but for a 4 star establishment I expected more. Self-catering units do not even have small bags of tea, coffee or milk that are usually found in any sleeping unit. The security gate that provides entrance to accommodation was broken which provided an opportunity for any person to gain access. Inside the camp there are no indications of how to drive to the self-catering unit. Would definitely recommend that something be done about this. Enjoyed dinner at the restaurant which on more than one occasion had a shortage of food or drinks on the Menu.

Lieflike plek, maar geen privaatheid.

Personeel is baie vriendelik en die "lounge" is lieflik. Ek praat slegs vir die slaapplek - stables. Daar is geen voorsiening gemaak vir demping van die klank van die buurkamers nie. Jy kan elke woord hoor wat jou bure praat, jy kan selfs hoor wanneer hulle toilet toe gaan en watter nommer dit is. Dit is geensins privaat nie. Ons het ongelukkig langs bure gebly wat eenkant 4 uur in die oggend begin gesels het (normale volume), maar dat ons wakker geword het. Aan die ander kant was 'n baie liefdevolle paartjie wat die nag vir ons bietjie ongemaklik gemaak het deur geluide van hulle kamer. Bona Bona kan gerus iets doen om die kamers meer privaatheid te gee wat klankdigtheid betref. Ek sal nie weer R1000 per nag betaal vir so ongemaklike verblyf nie!

Lovely place, but no privacy.

The staff was very friendly and the lounge is lovely. I'm just refer tot the place where we slept - stables. Nothing was done to reduce the noise of the neighbouring rooms. You hear every word, you even hear your neighbours going to the toilet and what they do in there. No privacy at all. Unfortunately we ended up next to people who started talking at 04:00 in the morning (normal volume), but it woke us up. The neighbours on the other side was a very in love couple who made us a bit uncomfortable with their sounds. Bona Bona should do something to improve the privacy, soundproofing. I won't pay R1000 again for this kind of uncomfortable accommodation!

Die bosveld in ons tuin.

Met die kort kennisgewing en die vinnige reëlings, was Bona Bona waarlik a voortreflike plek. Met die gehuil van jakkalse en die gesus van die wind is hierdie plek n wildtuin in jou agterplaas. Mense is vriendelik en ligging is perfek vir 'n naweekwegbreek.

The woodland in our garden.

With the short notice and the quick arrangements, Bona Bona was truly a superb venue. With the howling of foxes and the whisper of the wind, this place is a wildlife garden in your backyard. People are friendly and location is perfect for a weekend getaway.

Wat 'n aangename verrassing - ek het net oornag plek gesoek omdat dit al laat was op my besigheidsreis - maar ek gaan beslis die familie bring vir vakansie!

Die fasiliteite is uitstekend. Ek was nie bewus dat ek 'n 4X4 voertuig nodig het vir verblyf by Bushcamp nie, maar die personeel het vinnig 'n plan gemaak em my na die Jagkamp geskuif. Alhoewel dit al laat was het die personeel seker gemaak als is in orde by Jagkamp en selfs patrollies gedurende die nag daar gery. Baie tevrede. Dankie.

What a pleasant surprise - I was only looking for an overnight stay as it was already late on my business trip - but I will definitely be bringing the family on holiday!

The facilities are excellent. I was not aware that I needed a 4X4 vehicle for accommodation at Bushcamp, but the staff quickly made a plan and moved me to the Hunting Camp. Although it was already late, the staff made sure everything was in order at Jagkamp and even drove patrols there during the night. Very satisfied. Thank you.
