Lodges in Tzaneen

"Great place super friendly staff and fantastic chef! "

"This was my second time staying at Raptor Retreat and it was just as good as the first. Our lodging, the Hippo Cottage, was huge, very well equipped and had a wonderful view of the river and the animals. One morning, we saw a parade of elephants right by our window. I also loved the soaking bathtub that also had a great view. We did three amazing game drives with Keith, the owner of Raptor Retreat on which we saw an incredible variety of animals including a huge herd of elephants, hippos and...

"I enjoyed a fantastic break at this wonderful lodge. The team under the leadership of Sarah were fantastic and the highlight of my stay. The dining and meals by Lucia were first class. the safari drives by William and Rose were very educational. I cant wait to rebook"

"Great little place if you want to avoid some of the more exorbitant places in kruger. Saw the big 5 after a day and a half, plus cheetah, giraffe, hippo and plenty more. The 3 nights we stayed was plenty. "

"Excellent game drives, saw the Big 5, great cheetah, lion experiences. 5 stars. Extremely qualified guide and tracker. 5 stars.

Dining experience and set up with campfire was amazing. 5 stars. The room was rather small, with limited privacy in the bathroom and toilet, outdoor bath tub has issues with piping, and the toilet was...

"Chisomo was fantastic. The manager Steven (or Stephen?) was wonderful and ever present. Food was great and plentiful. Rooms were everything you’d want. The property - pool, walkways, dining area - were all very well maintained. All staff were extremely helpful and friendly. All the activities were very well-executed and planned. Drivers/guides/trackers were wonderful (knowledgeable, friendly, professional, etc.). Highly recommended. "

"Incredibly romantic and well structure, the Lodge delivers an unique experience with wild Safaris and an amazing place to relax! Would definitely come back and do it again, highly recommended!"

"Upmarket pricing with mediocre accommodation The safari is limited in big 5 animals but we saw rabbit cat & warthog which was goof viewing. The attendance at mealtime as was the food mediocre but pricing high, Not a place to return for me.tip envelopes added to final billing which is ott imho"

"Everything was excellent, the staff were so friendly, the problem was the beds are not that comfortable "

"Embarking on this two-day safari for our honeymoon was an absolute dream come true! From the moment we arrived, the staff welcomed us with open arms and a wealth of knowledge about the wildlife and the area. Their hospitality truly exceeded our expectations. The guides (Opua and Excellent) were not only experts in their field but also passionate storytellers, making each moment on the safari an engaging and enlightening experience. Moreover, the food served during the entire journey was nothing...

"Hermoso hotel, en medio de la naturaleza, con un staff de primera que creo que es su mejor característica. Recomendado para pasar unos días de tranquilidad, en la pileta, comiendo muy bien."

"We had a wonderful stay here. The owner and staff were all very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. We spent 5 nights at the hotel including my wife's birthday. When the staff found out they made my wife a birthday cake and sang happy birthday too her at dinner. I could not recommend this place more. "

"Isilimela is an Amazing place. The place itself at Balule Parson reserve is fabulous, the surroundings are serene and the views from the lodge spectacular. The owners Maikel and Wanda, and the staff are excellent and cater to your every need and much more. After every game drive or a visit outside, you are greeted by staff at the gate wth wet towels and a drink to refresh you. The food is delicios gourmet with multiple courses at breakfat and at dinner. At our request they did a braai which was...

"Check in was bad and the welcome not good due to us booking on hotels.com and the manager did not know how to claim the free nights I had and booked for it. Then she tried to tell us we had to pay and later came to sort of apologize but just not a good reception Management is really bad at your property and the place is going backwards as no one sees to it that things get repaired in the cabins or that cleanlines is maintained. We sent an email and then a maintenance guy did come however he...
