"Such a beautiful game reserve, highly recommend!!"

"Annoying part, arrived there late and I was told need a code to enter. Had to call reservations asking for code. Arrived and then was told to still pay, but everything was paid in full. For a property with such high standard, they can spend some money on proper pillows and bedding. Shower heads and shower needs proper cleaning. Sad to see so much littering by the people, and no one picks it up. Overall, property was really nice, peaceful. Game drive was boring. Spa was amazing. "

"We wanted a safe room, with a hot shower and a confortable bed to rest for the night before continueing oir journey the following morning and Elephant Springs Hotel provided that. It is also conveniently situated in the middle of town. "

"Trip was great. Good comfortable accommodation. Amazing clean hot swimming pools."

"Lovely smaller hotel away from the hustle and bustle of the Zebula lodge but right inside the reserve with great rooms and dining."

"Our stay in Mabula was fantastic, very large and comfortable room, exceptional food, fantastic game drives, bush walk, etc. "

"No parking available close the units"

"We were always greeted respectfully and always had great service. The lodge owners were also present during our stay and they are very nice. All the meals were wonderful, and the game drives were excellent, this lodge give you something to eat and drink on the game drive while you are able to see the wildlife. "

"Arrival welcome After a 3.5hr drive from Jberg with mostly highway but around 30km of dirt track we arrived at Letamo initially, the sister lodge. Make sure to book with a reputable transfer company as the dirt track is a challenging drive. After a beer in the bar at Letamo our dedicated ranger Sam picked us up in the land cruiser and took us over to Babohi, it was quite a nice touch to get a transfer over to Babohi with our guide and become acquainted. We knew straight away we were in great hands with Sam from the outset! Once we arrived at Babohi, a ceremonial hand wash and welcome drink during a relaxed check in. Room We stayed in a 'premium room' which was immaculately furnished, a lovely plunge pool, bath tub, and two showers; inside and outside. A welcome drink of African rum and ginger ale in the room was a nice touch. The room enjoyed lovely views in which we could see baboons and an array of bird life. Golf buggies would escort you from your lodge to the main reception. Another lovely and convenient touch was that laundry was included! Wish we knew beforehand as we over packed. Food An exceptional pastry chef who makes the best blueberry muffins I've ever tried! Favourite meals were lamb chops and the springbok shank. Standard drinks were also included with the full board package. 4 meals a day, pre game drive breakfast, brunch, high tea and dinner. Overall Fantastic game drives with plenty to see! A remarkable high end Safari Lodge! "
