Game Lodge - Page 2

Relaxing Experience

Beautiful Game Lodge. Wonderfully quiet and something special.

Cozy and Interesting

Great modern and very clean tents, very interesting game drives (big thank you to JP!), beautiful views and very friendly staff.

5-Day Stay

We liked everything, the property was beyond what we expected. the exceptional environment, in a nature of absolute calm, we felt like we were at the end of the world, far from everything. The photos don't lie: everything was beautiful, a lodge and impeccable facilities. Very kind hosts and quality food (for dinner) (vegans abstain). very interesting animals and morning safari. We will keep this 5 day stay unforgettable.

Amazing stay in the luxury tent!!

Loved the stay in the luxury tent! Didn’t feel like camping as it had everything you need, was very clean and ZERO insects inside. Also waking up seeing many animals (like zebras and giraffes), the lovely game drives, great staff and amazing 3-course meals every night made the stay perfect for us!

Excellent Lodge

Super pleasant family business. You feel immediately at home.

The place is very nice, but above the description is comfortable and quiet. I wish I had stayed more than a day. The atmosphere is wonderful. The sounds of birds make you fly away. The hosts are wonderful and friendly. They allowed us to stay up to watch TV in the lobby. The place is very clean and the safari is wonderful. They have a large group of animals... Read More

Absolutely perfect!! Staff extremely friendly. Game drive took two hours and was also great! Luxury Tent a great experience and very well-equipped. Food (breakfast and dinner) very good! We will definitely be back. During breakfast you have the view of the animals (Zebras and antelopes mostly).

Nice Game Lodge

Beautiful lodge, great tents, exciting game drive with many animal sightseeings. Warm hosts & staff. it was very fun!

Beautiful lodge and wildlife

Enjoyed a tasty breakfast at a beautifully set table, with friendly service and then went on a wild drive. Beautiful scenery. We saw rhinos, different species of buck, zebras and giraffes. It was a special experience and strongly recommend it to all who is looking for an enjoyable outing.

We couldnt rate Hennie and Anette's hospitality higher. The accommodation (luxury tent for us) was impeccable. Some tent! It was glamping at its best. Every last need was catered for, and I especially appreciated the fresh milk, it was perfect for a cuppa as we settled in. My friend thoroughly enjoyed her bath, looking through the tent flaps, out onto the veld.Hennie (the owner) also does the game drives,... Read More

An absolute gem on the garden route

Together with my wife I spent the last two weeks traveling the garden route in SA. We rented a car in Cape Town and drove our way east to Port Elizabeth and back. One of the main reasons we came to SA is obviously the possibility to spot majestic animals on their wild habitat and we were lucky enough to decide to spend two nights in the game reserve...

Beautiful and Exceptional

Beautiful experience in several ways: The accommodation is a tent with two beds and a toilet in addition to an outdoor courtyard containing simple cooking utensils, oven and refrigerator, an external sitting and a barbecue place and the bathroom is fully equipped and the warm water is refreshing, and the beds are characterized by the availability of heating mattresses. There are different animals in front of the tent especially... Read More

The best private game drive we’ve ever had with Wayne that is so much passionate about the animals - fantastic luxury tent experience!

The location is amazing, the view and the peace just great! Great value for money! the tents are well equipped, just a great stay

Beautiful place, exceptional experience, very kind person, comfortable tents, it was perfect!

sleep in a tent of 4 with exceptional comfort by being directly in the reserve. we did a game drive in the establishment one morning which was really great, we saw lots of animals. we had a great time in Hartenbos Private game lodge!

Very nice and comfortable tent,great game drive

Superb game reserve - luxury but with a connection to the wild. Owners and staff exceptional

Being in the beautiful African countryside, and whilst staying in quite luxurious accommodation (for me a very 5 star tent) you still felt a connection to the outdoors. The staff, and the owners, were super people, and made it feel like you were a member of the family. The game we saw exceeded my expectations

A nice safari experience

A great stay in a well-kept Game Reserve with really great hosts! Alida and Wayne really made our stay memorable. The food was good and the animals of the Game Reserve could be enjoyed with Wayne at close proximity and with great and fun information.

As a Mom of three, we always need to take into consideration, if this would be a "child friendly choice?" Never in my life, did I think this experience would be THIS remarkable!!! Friendly staff, super neat, clean, proffesional and unbelievably rememberable!! Surrounded by views, for days .... we have had more than just "a pleasant stay!!" I will save these memories in my heart, forever! Thank you Alida,... Read More

Alida en Wayne het ons absoluut weggeblaas met hul enorme gasvryheid! Nie net was die kos uit die boonste rakke gewees nie, maar die verblyf was smaakvol en gemaklik. Geen moeite is gespaar nie. Die wildrit was fantasties, met versnaperinge en drinkgoed langs die pad. Ons sal beslis weer hier 'n draai kom maak met ons hele gesin! Baie dankie Alida en Wayne vir 'n huweliksherdenking wat ons beslis... Read More
