Nauntons Guest House & Wedding Venue

"We had a lovely time at Naurons. The property was beautiful and great value for money. Our room was spacious and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The property is very close to town and easily accessible by car."

Esiweni Luxury Safari Lodge

"Esiweni Lodge truly exceeded our expectations for our honeymoon! From the moment we got there, we were greeted by the entire staff with a warm welcome. Not only was the lodge absolutely stunning, quiet, and peaceful, but the level of service from the staff we experienced was like nothing we've ever had before. They were extremely attentive to us, and anything we asked for, the answer was yes. There was a bottle of champagne and snacks waiting for us when we arrived. Alex, the manager during our stay was always there when we needed something and was super quick to assist us. Our stay wouldn't have been the same without him! The room was also cleaned and tidied up about 4x a day, and the staff set us up a bubble bath every night after our second game ride! The game rides started at 6am, with coffee and cookies given to us before we left. We came during a cold front, and the truck included ponchos and heated water bottles, which really kept us warm. Robert, our ranger was incredible from day 1. He went out of his way to make sure we saw every animal we wanted to, and got as close to them as possible. On our first game ride, we had a lion and lioness walk right by the car! Lastly, THE FOOD! Esiweni has their own chef, and he is absolutely incredible. Every single meal was tailored towards us - we told him to make some of his favorites, since we're not picky eaters, and it seemed like every meal got better and better every day, with the portion sizes being huge. He also came out to check on us after every meal. During each meal, the wait staff was incredibly attentive, friendly, warm, and welcoming. The food came out so quickly, they pulled out a chair for us every time we sat down, and everything was just perfect. On our last night, they set up a surprise traditional African BBQ where we sat around the fire and enjoyed the delicious food and drinks. Esiweni truly made our honeymoon an unforgettable experience. We would highly recommend them to anyone traveling to South Africa for a Safari experience. The level of quality and service was unmatched. We just got back a week ago, and we already miss the entire staff. We hope to be back one day soon!"

Memra Guest House

"We booked in for 2 nights on the 23rd and 24th of September. Our host Magda was warm and welcoming even at a 23h00 check in. She was so obliging and walked down to the guest room with milk, tea, sugar and coffee in hand to check us in. The room, kitchenette and bathroom was exceptionally clean. We were never asked for payment at any stage of our stay. I would highly recommend Memra Regards Charlton "

Royal Hotel Ladysmith

"We went for a Christmas Lunch the food was so tasteless, the only thing I enjoyed was the starters. Whooo the buttered chicken was terrible. The only thing that was better on their main meal was the pork and lamb the rest was horibble. I just wasted my money what Ana awful. Christmas I had😔"

Nambiti Plains

"Our stay at Nambiti Plains was absolutely unforgettable and the perfect honeymoon destination. Magdel and Betty were amazing and made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. Sindy and Mabaso made every meal a joy, and Roy and Siyanda’s food was absolutely delicious. The rooms were beautiful and the entire lodge was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the bush. A special thank you to Phillip, our guide, who was phenomenal and truly took our experience to the next level with his knowledge, passion, and care. This was the best bush trip we have ever had and will be incredibly hard to top. We are so glad we chose Nambiti Plains for our honeymoon and will treasure these memories forever."
