  Thank you to iKhaya LamaDube Game Lodge for an unbelievable break and romantic stay. They think about everything to inform the guests about which roads are better with different vehicles,... read more an "essential" list for the bush, etc. Seems like the animals took part in this "organisation" as we saw Rhino's, Giraffes, Zebra, Blue Wildebeest, Kudu, herd of Impalas and more from our cottage.

The accommodation is in good condition and comfortable. One can really rest there. We are grateful for the little things such as the laying out of a starter "kit" in the boma, they gave us wood because the power went out, romantic setting of the dining table, etc.

I have not seen Hospitality like I have seen from Tienie and Gerd and staff.

We will be back...

Many thanks and Kind Regards,

I guess that's why we always come there.... cause of you...

Location - Perfectly situated in Dinokeng Game Reserve. Upon coming to the Lodge we had a moment to look at the animals and take photos. It was a beautiful romantic drive for us indeed :-).

Room - We stayed in the Luxury Villa. I must say that its the best room ever. Cutlery and crockery are great quality. My partner and I enjoyed cooking dinner and making breakfast using Berlinger Haus cookware. The bathroom and outside shower are by far the highlights of the room and are to die for if I should say so myself 🙂

Amenities - The private pool very relaxing and secluded from anything.... It was a bit cold when we were there but my partner had the best time in the water despite the cold. Braai area? yes the highlight of any men.... He enjoyed the fact that both the pool and braai area are so close to each other.

Overall experience - The money paid was worth it. If you ever at any point in your life you get a chance, I recommend that you visit the Lodge, you will thank me one day. We planning another trip and we surely know were we will be staying 🙂
