What an awesome getaway

We loved the service and each person working there made us feel so welcome. Tannie Maria, owner of the place also came by to chat to us. We loved the interior decor and it really left like a 5 star. The accommodation was amazing right down to the Lindt chocolate, gown and slippers placed on our beds and we loved the bathroom. We booked 2 game drives and a high tea which was also so awesome. My husband is vegetarian and the staff really went out of their way to accommodate him. We loved our stay there. The purpose of the trip was to celebrate my husband's bday and he definitely felt like royalty at palala
