    Amazing location, phenomenal staff, modest yet so comfortable with great bed and great AC. The grounds were spectacular with wildlife all around.

    The room was very spacious, and the views are amazing.. The staff is great and as the lodge is inside the park, we managed to see many animals, including leons, cheetah, giraffes and other animals very close.
