Very helpful staff and owner. Good braai dinner by Tinyiko. Only think that I forgot to tell management is to remove a wire tub plug handle in Cheetah. It is very dangerous when bathing and is an accident in waiting

Great stay

The owner of the lodge, West, is the perfect host. We arrived at the property and were immediately shown our very nice tent. The tent has all you can wish for, outside shower even. Then West cooked a Braai for us and told numerous stories from his time as a ranger. When the news came some wild dogs were in the area, he invited us immediately to join him for the search and drove us around the estate to find them. Lastly, the Lions are amazing and walking with them is a truly unique experience.

Uma experiência incrível

A hospedagem no Lion Tree Top foi incrível. O quarto ficava na árvore e era bem confortável. Vimos leoas brancas muito perto. O dono do hotel foi muito gentil e agradável conosco o tempo todo. O café da manhã era delicioso e o jantar oferecido na boma também! Recomendamos a estadia a todos.

Truly memorable experience

What an experience! The accommodation was more than we hoped for. We felt we were amoungst nature, hearing the wildlife and the lions. The lions... Walking with the lions is one of the best experiences we've had. I'm so thankful we could be a part of this. Such beautiful animals. Thank you West. You anf Gil have created something so special. We must also compliment your chef. The food was delicious. Thank you once again.

O local é o máximo!

A estadia foi simplesmente sensacional, o local é fantástico, os donos são extremamente atenciosos e querem lhe deixar o mais confortável possível. A cabana é ótima, com muito espaço, o chuveiro externo é maravilhoso, tudo foi perfeito.
