We could not fault the experience we had, from the minute we arrived, the hospitality, accommodation, food, our ranger Werner, the game and Veronique and her team. A most memorable experience and highly recommended.

Wow what a wonderful spot to get away from it all. Loved the little lodges we each got to stay in and the room was so cozy! Wish I could have tried the outside shower but it was too chilly that early in the morning but what fun to sleep under the net in the night. Reminded me when I... More

Thanks for staying with us and for posting such a lovely review. It's great to have such good feedback, especially from such a seasoned Safari-ist (I liked the memory of your girlhood safaris under mosquito nets). We hope we get to welcome you back in the summer sometime, so that you can enjoy those outside showers. Best regards from the... More

Thanks for choosing Hlosi, and thanks for taking the trouble to post a review. We'd like to apologise for the extra kilos picked up at the lodge: we have the same problem... Hope to see you and your family again for some more good times and good food! Thanks and best regards from the Hlosi team and the Bailey family More

Over the years I have travelled in South Africa on varied safari activities, I have never seen anyone mix safari/wildlife/wilderness with children – Hlosi does this brilliantly. Set on the Amakhala reserve, an easy hours drive from Port Elizabeth, you are welcomed into the Hlosi family with warmth and kindness. We don’t like separate family holiday with kids booked into...

We stayed 3 nights at Hlosi with our 3 young children (6, 3 and 1 year old), our nanny and 2 parents. We all had a wonderful and relaxing time and outdoor experience. We had our own cottage with 2 bedrooms (with large en-suites), a living area, a porch and outdoor jacuzzi. The lodge exceeded our expectations in many ways:... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in November 2011 as part of a tour of SA and so glad we did. Although it rained almost constantly during our stay this didn't spoil what was an amzing place. We arrived just after lunchtime on the first day and were met at the front door by the on-duty manageress who arranged a... More

It's a double blessing for us to have rain on the reserve and to have guests who felt the magic of it. Thanks for your lovely review. We think there's a unique magic in the smells and sounds of rain on the Amakhala, and we're so glad you were able to experience this too. Thank you for choosing Hlosi as... More

Stayed at Hlosi for 2 nights at the end of February with my wife and son (aged 9). The highlights of course were the game drives but the Lodge itself is fantastic with a brilliant staff. The quality of the food provided was truly excellent and sumptuous. We were lucky enough to witness many animals at close range from the... More

A beautiful, tranquil place with a fantastic team of staff who made us very welcome. To sit on the terrace and watch the animals in such natural surroundings was wonderful. Great fun on the game drives with a final siting on lions - thank you!
