We stayed here as part of our honeymoon in SA. We received a very warm welcome including a welcome drink and some lunch. Check-in was super easy, and we were given a tour of the premises. Our room was beautiful, with a lovely view over the game reserve, where we were able to spot warthogs, antelope and the baby hippo which lives in the waterhole. The service was fantastic, and nothing was a bother, they kindly decorated our room after one of our game drives with a selection of cheese and crackers and a bottle of wine, which went down very nicely! The game drives, however, were the highlight. We did 6 in total, each very different but all very special. our driver, Evence, was incredibly knowledgeable and was able to spot the animals from miles away! We managed to see rhinos, elephants, lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras and antelope all up close. Our stops for morning coffee and sundowners were always in beautiful locations and we had an array of choices of drinks. We would definitely recommend staying here

The food at the lodge was tasty and filling however could be improved.

The staff were so helpful and kind. The game viewing was incredible and Dario, the ranger, was very respectful of the animals, passionate about what he does and knowledgeable. The location is perfect, the watering hole is a lovely spot to quietly watch animals as you read your book. Very convenient to get to from PE airport. The rooms were clean with appropriate decor. I loved having a bath in our safari tent whilst watching for animals out the window. We stayed at Bukela, the more expensive and 5 star equivalent and had a better experience at Hlosi. I'd highly recommend Hlosi to anyone wanting a high quality safari experience.

The food was average. I would expect more from a 4 star establishment.

An absolutely fantastic few weeks at Hlosi. From the moment we arrived the staff couldn't have been friendlier. We were told we were on holiday and not to lift a finger! Our room was wonderful, with a large walk in shower, bath and even outdoor shower. We had a deck overlooking the reserve and would see wild game from there every morning. The food was lovely and plentiful. We had the most spectacular game drives. Again, the staff were all wonderful and we have memories that will last a lifetime. I would absolutely recommend staying at Hlosi.

The Hlosi game lodge and the reserve were one of our highlights of our SA trips. We had a lovely very spacious house and deck with 2 bathrooms with in- and outside showers. Restaurant and deck with view to the waterhole with 2 hippos was amazing. All game drives were breathtaking and “successful”. We saw all big five (replacing the leopard by cheetahs) plus giraffes, zebras, kudus, etc. very close. It was our best location to spot many animals.

The pool couldn’t be used

We had an amazing experience at this game lodge and it was one of the highlights on our trip. The staff were so friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The food was excellent and had great options to choose from. Our game drives were superb and we saw so many animals. The game driver was knowledgeable and went out of his way to ensure that we had a great experience. The room itself was fabulous and the view from your balcony was great - we could even see quite a few animals from it too. Highly recommend!

The ambiance, the friendly, attentive and helpful staff and the setting. The games drives were fantastic.

I thought the food was adequate, but very ordinary. Breakfast was good,, but lunch was the low point and dinner was boring. I also think for a lodge of Hlosi's rating and standing, that a decent coffee machine is in order!

Stunning place, absolute luxury for tents in the Bush, in the middle of nowhere. Such a treat to live almost alongside the animals (from a safe distance!) and to observe in natural surroundings. Saw so many beautiful creatures and I loved that the lodge was respectful and conscious of the environment in terms of the minimal impact construction of the accommodation (beautifully equipped luxury tents) and yet struck a really lovely balance with comfort and beautiful design. A very special experience that we will treasure forever.

Nothing. It was all great.

Everything!! The game reserve drives were unbelievable - our driver Evance was so knowledgable. Each drive was so different but so enjoyable and truly a once in a lifetime experience. The staff in the lodge were so attentive and helpful. We had such a brilliant stay and would highly recommend to everyone!

Nothing!

The lodge offers a great vista to see animals. Really awesome to see the baby hippo at the watering hole nearby! The food is really good too! The game drives were also excellent! Pack warm clothes for the winter drives!

There was a mixup with the expected arrival time. The lodge sent us the summer schedule for game drives when actually they were on the winter schedule. Make sure you confirm what times they’re doing the game drives! The company didn’t offer any compensation for their error. When entering the GPS coordinates on google maps, it navigates you the wrong way to the game park. Rather put in these coordinates (-33.5348050, 26.0861731)

Very beautiful game reserve and very kind staff. The safari experience is amazing.

Could be a little cleaner on the outside but the lodge is surrounded by nature, there are a lot of beautiful birds flying by and there is not much water
