We stayed the weekend at Inkwazi - Ingwe cottage in this private reserve. Goodness this was a lovely experience. This lodge was truly luxurious (ok we're in a game reserve... read more but its near 5 stars regardless in my opinion!) Nothing like taking a (hot!) shower looking out into the landscape, for me! We had everything we needed and a very very comfortable bed. OK we are in the bush but we loved all the monkeys and other animals around. The stars at night and the sunsets - both utterly memorable. Our hosts were more than welcoming and we felt immediately like we were with friends. The staff were so cheerful and helpful (we are not used to staff so someone else doign the washing up was quite a treat!) and the gift of fresh home made muffins in the morning was particularly welcome! Do the game drive. We were incredibly lucky and caught sight of a leopard at dusk. A boat trip is also a must, to get up close and personal to hippos etc. Just one note, we had to leave our fresh meat at the Eswatini border due to Foot and Mouth, but hey its the farmers who are really suffering not us. The border crossing was otherwise fast and easy. All in all, a lifetime experience.

We loved our time at Royal Jozini Private Game Reserve, the accomodation, the wildlife, the fishing was simply unbeatable. The place reminds me so much of a Lake Kariba experience... read more right here on our doorstep. The staff could not have been more attentive and helpful and having the elephants come and visit us at the lodge was a real highlight.

Stayed at Kujabula Lodge and was nice and rustic with a super big King sized bed complete with many pillows.... read more There is a huge bath tub and rain showers. The place is self catering and the kitchen is very well equipped with all manners of pans, pots and cooking utensils. There is a housekeeper who will take care of your cleaning up after meal as well as the room. Laundry service is also available for a fee.
View of the porch to the riverfront is fantastic during sunset. There are logging chairs and sofas to enjoy the view outdoors and is safe to do so.
Plenty of game, sights and sound to when we took the game drive and boat tour.

We were disappointed .
Kajabula is very average and... read more a bit run down for what you pay . It’s been neglected.
It’ needs a revamp with some TLC .

Overall it was a great stay, just to be away from the busy city. The nature, views, wild animals we... read more were able to see, it was a great experience.
I noticed it is also a good place for team visits or family ouitings.
I definitely would love to come back with either a family or colleugues!

It is a beautiful accommodation made up of a central building that acts as a reception, dining room and some... read more rooms. What disconcerted me and even today I have not fully assimilated, is that the beautiful, luxurious and equipped Bungalows are located far, very far from said central building, in some cases more than 30' by 4x4 along a mountain track. However, when you arrive you find a luxurious facility, equipped with a kitchen, office, private pool and everything you need to spend days of absolute tranquility. The decoration is exquisite, modern African type and the Bungalows are of different occupancy, family or individual. Due to its quality, good service, cleanliness and treatment, I would gladly describe it as excellent, but the aforementioned fact of the distance of the accommodations from the main building and from each other stops me.
