Traveller Reviews

  • Great Fish Lodge was just beautiful. The drives were spot on; the staff was top notch; food was excellent and the accommodations were excellent.

    Stephanie Nigro, December 2011

  • Kwande - fantastic place. My wife loved it here. Impressive rooms, careful staff, excellent game viewing - didn't expect all of this together!

    Jacques Matone, June 2010

  • The Lodge and rooms were A+++++ My PPP (Private Plunge Pool) was so private and so wonderful. The housekeeping was the fastest I've ever seen and they did it multiple times a day. The staff were extremely attentive and remembered everything about you.

    Alexandra McLeod, February 2010

  • The highlights of the trip for me were the game drives at Kwande. The staff was knowledgeable and we saw LOTS of wildlife (including leopard, lions with cubs, black rhino, hippos, etc).

    Melinda Hamway, June 2009

  • I can't even begin to tell you how much we loved Kwandwe, I can't think about it without getting emotional and I actually cried when we had to go home.
