My daughter and I enjoyed our too-short visit immensely. Everyone went out of their way to welcome us and see to our creature comforts and accomodate our wildlife viewing interests. We shall be going back for more excellent wildlife times in a most pleasant environment with gracious hosts.

A group of 6 British soldiers kept occupied and intrigued, whether it was by Anton's reptile sanctuary or the breath taking safari we were taken on by 2 excellent guides.Dylan and Josie. The lodge's themselves are excellent and would reccomend them to couples as the setting when sun goes down is up there with some of the best things ive... More

Myself and my wife were hunting for a nice place to stay for our honeymoon, and came across Umkhumbi Lodge. From first contact, we were impressed. Emma, was very efficient with booking our stay, and our activities, and staying in contact with us till our arrival date. When we got there, we were greeted by very accommodating staff. They offered... More

Without coming with any expectations other than wanting a couple of exciting days away with the family, we were totally blown away with this awesome lodge. Arriving we were greeted by a very hospitable team who went out of there way to make our stay, one our whole family will not forget too soon. WOW what a great start to... More

We booked here as a treat on a long road trip, what a mistake. It's right next to the highway in a piece of ill-kept, overgrown bush,very noisy and no views from the rooms which were dirty and very basic, not worthy of a R2500 a night "lodge", we've stayed in much better Sanparks accommodation for a far better location...

If you want to feel like you are in the bush, but still have all the amenities of good food, warm water and a spacious room, then this is the place for you. The staff is exceptionally courteous, and... More

The dining was stunning and being both vegetarians my partner and i were extremely appreciative of what was catered for us amazing dinners , fantastic breakfasts and great interactions with... More

What an amazing place to linger for a while. This is one of my all time favourite places in the world to stay and is surrounded by amazing things to do. The location is absolutely beautiful, but the set up of these accomodations is really first rate. There is nothing better than enjoying a cold beer from their patio in... More

I stayed over at Umkhumbi with my family and the location and food were excellent. However there is no closet space an some racial tendency in their restaurant. If you are not white, expect to be served last. My family on each occassion had to sit and wait for the family who was white to order and be served their... More
