Traveller Reviews

  • This, along with Last Word at Long Beach, was the best accommodation of the trip and the experience was the pinnacle of our holiday. The physical surrounds at Dulini are deceptively low-key but this leafy, thatched and quiet place almost immediately exerts a wonderful calm. The comfort and ease go very deep, and the care and attention of staff was first-rate, from Patricia in management to butler Maurice. We felt looked after and gently managed at every turn. Food was both simple and excellent, whether in the main dining area or brought to our deck. The lodge accommodation was spacious and interesting, with ample room on the deck and around the plunge pool. The game drive experience was superb. Ranger William Moss had an encyclopaedic knowledge not just of the big game but also of birds, insects, plants, reptiles, trees and shared this with enthusiasm and zest. He and tracker Isaac made a great team and from first to last we found the morning and evening drive experience immensely rewarding and enriching. We truly could not have been in better hands. If we could change one thing? It would have been wonderful to have a book on the birds and animals of Sabi Sand / Kruger back in our room, to browse between game drives. But that’s it. This was a superb experience, as good as any holiday experience we’ve enjoyed.

  • It was excellent. I will go again for sure.

  • Dulini Safari Lodge was beautiful! We went on all six game drives and even found the leopard on three different drives. Again EVERYTHING was perfect! The surprise dinner in our room the last night!!

  • The accommodation was fantastic, food great, people friendly.

  • Dulini was just perfect. Wonderful staff, beautiful accomodation and great wildlife viewing. My thoughts to other travelers is don't expect to see the quantity of animals you will see at the Masai Mara, Serengeti, or Ngorongoro Crater. But you will see wildlife in much more intimate settings. We had lions and leopards as well as many other animals wandering through the lodge grounds during both the days and evenings. It does get your blood pumping a bit. The area where we were is not short or tall grass plains but heavy bush so you tend to be right on top of the animals and that is very exciting. They also do a much better job of controlling the viewing. You will never see more than two vehicles at a particular sighting unlike the places mentioned above where you might have ten or fifteen vehicles at a particularly exciting viewing. The trackers, rangers and lodge staff were as good as it gets. This place gets a five star rating from Wava and I.

  • At Dulini Lodge we saw the big five several times during our 3 day stay plus lots of other animals too, my wife was enthralled. The lodge was everything we hoped for without being ostentatious. The rooms were big and the layout of the Lodge was really nice too. The food was always very nice and always well presented, and all the staff were outstanding with nothing being to much trouble. We loved every minute.

  • Dulini : superb lodge, more exclusive and luxurious than Kirkman's. I liked the private plunge pool and the terrace with the outside shower. The bathroom is also wonderful. Excellent game drives, even if here you see lots of other cars and they communicate a lot by radio, taking a waiting list position for the various animals found. So less natural, but you are mostly sure to see something. It was the idea for my father's family, and they were delighted by their experience. The off road driving was also quite something with us getting stuck a couple of times. And it is very good to be able to follow a leopard in the bush.

  • The Exeter Dulini lodge was equally regal, though very different. They did a fantastic job letting us dine in different settings every night, including having pancakes and champagne in the bush or lunch in a river bed. We couldn't have been more pleased.

    Corinne Helman, May 2010
  • Our stay in Exeter Dulini was wonderful, I do not remember a place and people so marvellous as what we found there. Every day a different surprise, all kind of details... Lovely people. Great in one word. It has been so nice that we are recommending everybody to go there. And of course we were able to find all the big 5 and many other, really exciting!! I look forward to going there again, let's see.

    Isabel Salcedo de Diego, September 2009
  • Thank you for recommending Exeter Dulini for the second half of the holiday. The accommodation was excellent, among the best we have stayed in on our trips to safari in SA. The staff, as always, were welcoming, attentive and friendly.
