We booked this special 50th anniversary trip through RCI, not knowing what to expect. TripAdvisor reviews ranged from 1 star to 5 stars. From the moment we were greated by Surprize and the other reception staff, we found them friendly, organized and helpful. All rules and activities were carefully explained. The lodge is well laid out and well maintained. We were in a 4-sleeper express, adequate for 2 people, but I think a little small for 4. Plenty to do, weather permitting, tennis, putt-putt, games room, gym, to mention a few. A lovely hiking trail and river walk. Daiky visits by buck and monkeys. An added bonus...no mosquitos, the bats eat them! The lodge is 1,7km from Sudwala Caves, another great feature. We visited the nearby Butterfly Nature Garden on the caves road, it's free and well worth the visit. We were treated to a Pensioners' Tea on the Thursday morning. Making scones is an art and these were baked by an artist. 1 star?? Not on our trip.
