Top Makalali Game Reserve Hotel Reviews
Nyati Safari Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"My wife and I had a fabulous time spent at Nyati. Arranged collection from Hoedspruit airport and on arrival at the lodge a lovely welcome and drink then shown to our luxury tent. A stunning view from the balcony of our tent overlooking the river and able to see hippos and crocodile. Game drives were excellent and rangers all very friendly and knowledgeable. The food is amazing and thoroughly enjoyed breakfast , lunch and dinner and the wines served were also very good with the evening meal. Patricia (Mrs Rainbow) behind the bar was brilliant. Would highly recommend this place."

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful hotel with stunning rooms and real sense of luxury. The pool and grounds are so tranquil and calm and everything is immaculate The staff are attentive and professional and the setting is beautiful with giraffe and zebra roaming around - so lovely. The restaurant is gorgeous. The only tiny bit of feedback is that the restaurant staff got things a bit confused for us and forgot some of the food and got the courses mixed up so the children got their main courses while the adults were served the starter so then had to wait ages for their pudding while we had the rest of the meal, and the side orders of vegetables never materialised but overall we had a wonderful stay "
