I had an amazing experience at this hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived, always ready to help with anything I needed. The food was absolutely delicious, with plenty of variety and great quality. The entire place was spotless — from the rooms to the common areas, everything was exceptionally tidy and well maintained. It’s clear that the team puts a lot of care into keeping the hotel comfortable and inviting. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Highly recommended, and I look forward to returning!

A great smaller lodge, with wonderful staff.. the room was a good size and the bed comfortable. Breakfast was good. The staff are all very good, but a special mention to the manager, Kennedy who always goes that little bit further to ensure the stay was pleasant. The onlr small downside is the outside area, which seems a little dodgy, due to the road conditionss, however the lodge has no control of thet. Will definitely return

The manager got us set up with Safaris and river cruises for the three days we stayed, as well as a flight back to Lusaka. Also helped us find a wonderful man, who got us to and from our activities and town. The receptionist/assistant manager and the rest of the staff were awesome
