Pros +
- Ndlovu is a stunning property. The facilities are first class. The lavish villas have abundant private indoor and outdoor spaces to relax (and cool off - the plunge pool overlooking the river was a real treat). Fancy a bath? You’ll have to decide between the enormous indoor tub, or the stylish outdoor clawfoot bath. The beds are super comfortable - fans, air-con and mosquito nets ensure a peaceful sleep.The main lodge spaces are just as inviting. Multiple places to relax (on the deck, watching the ever-entertaining zebras, warthogs, kudu), by the main pool, or inside the lounge. The staff are exceptional. Our guide, April, was extremely knowledgeable and generous with his expertise. As well as amazing sightings of a huge range of animals, we learned about the properties of various plants, about how the environment was being managed, and various tidbits about animal behaviour. An unbeatable experience.Timmy managed the food and beverage service at the lodge like a star. Warm and friendly service (and maker of an excellent gin and tonic with a twist!).Absolute highlight of our trip to South Africa.
- Everyone was so friendly and did their very best to accommodate whatever we are asked for. The game drives was excellent and we saw a lot of animals and landscapes. We will be back?
- Fantastic location, wonderful staff
Cons -
- Still under construction although this did not deter. Compared-to other lodges in Welgevonden this lodge is fully fenced in which does somehow detract from the “bush” experience
- Nothing it was all perfect
- There was nothing negative about our experience.

Stunning setting along a river bank. The rooms were incredible, a huge private space with your own pool and stunning room with everything you could possibly need. The staff were the amazing, probably the best service and attention to detail from a team of really special people. Special mention to April, Lerato, Zack and the chefs team.
