Was very relaxing.

Very disappointed with the pool, seeing that this is the only other recreational facility it should be properly maintained, was dirty and we could not use it.

Hluhluwe River Lodge 's response

We are sorry to hear you thought the pool was not clean enough for you to swim in. Our pools are maintained daily though in the summer heat it can be a challenge to keep the pools blue and suitable for swimming without having to add too many chemicals. The pool may have been slightly discolored but other guests still made use of this facility with no problems.

Very pleasant stay with great food quality and service all round.

It's a lovely place to relax away from the city and it provides peace and serenity all round. The owner and his team are excellent hosts. It would be nice to have more Wi-Fi connectivity in the chalets.

Die atmosfeer was baie rustig, ideaal as jy wil wegbreek.

Die kos was baie lekker. Drie opsies vir ontbyt en elke aand was daar voorgereg, 2 opsies vir hoofgereg en nagereg. Die stilte was ongelooflik en die eenheid was baie privaat met geen steurnis gedurende die tyd. Die diens was baie vriendelik, eienaar het homself kom voorstel en inligting met ons gedeel. Staproete op die perseel was goed. False Bay park paar kilometer verder ook goed vir stap, fietsry. Uur se ry van St Lucia. Ongelooflike area vir voëlkyk. Daar is kragopwekker vir load shedding.

The atmosphere was very peaceful, ideal if you want to get away.

The food was very nice. Three options for breakfast and every evening there was a starter, 2 options for main course and dessert. The silence was amazing and the unit was very private with no disturbance during the time. The service was very friendly, owner came to introduce himself and shared information with us. Walking trail on site was good. False Bay park a few kilometers further also good for walking, cycling. Hour's drive from St Lucia. Amazing area for bird watching. There is generator for load shedding.
