The property was modern, welcoming and beautiful. We loved spending time in the pool. And the hang out spots (bar, restaurant, Boma) were all beautiful.

We decided on short notice to stay overnight at the Lodge, and left feeling rested and satisfied. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The dinner was good, and the breakfast was excellent. While there is no Wi-Fi in the rooms, it is available in the restaurant and main building. I would gladly recommend this place at any time for a peaceful and tranquil bush experience.

Everything about Little Safari Lodge was perfect. We were looking for a chilled experience and were so happy with our stay. The game rides were exceptional. Robert and Mateo went above and beyond to ensure we had a very personal up close experience. They were just exceptional. The lodge was fantastic. The food was absolutely restaurant quality in taste and presentation. We had to cancel lunch one day as we were so full from breakfast. We saw all the big five and so many more animals in their natural habitat. Just stunning. We will be returning. Thanks for the best stay.

    We were greeted warmly by owners Michael and Vicky who were always happy to chat and find out about our experience at the lodge. When I mentioned a couple of minor issues they were quickly addressed. Our tent was comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed seeing antelopes just outside. They also came to drink from the swimming pool, giving us some great photo opportunities. The driver Dennis and spotter Phomani were very knowledgeable and found some wonderful sites to spot the animals, especially the lions killing a buffalo.

    Perfect from arrival to departure. Its now around 2/3 weeks ago and we still think about our stay and Safari every day. The lodge is lovely to stay with the kindest staff who also love to make some fun! The area is amazing for safari and game drives. We saw a LOT! And of course the big 5! our tracker and guide made sure we wouldn’t leave without seeing them all. Tangala team goes above and beyond. thanks for making our safari dream coming true like this! We love to return one day!

    Mixed Feelings About Waterbuck Lodge We recently stayed at Waterbuck Lodge as part of our honeymoon, and while there were some highlights, unfortunately, our experience fell short of expectations, especially considering the cost. First, the positives: the game drives were absolutely fantastic! The team was warm, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable, making the wildlife experience the highlight of our trip.

    We had an amazing stay at Tangala. Our first safari and it didn’t disappoint. Our Guide Respect and Tracker Fumani were incredible, went all out to make sure we saw the Big 5, great guys. Karen and Bertus run a fabulous authentic lodge and all the staff were fantastic, they all made sure we had the perfect experience. Can’t recommend Tangala enough !

    Beautiful lodge with a swimming pool and bar, nice seating area for lounging. Love the boma dining every night. The rooms are spacious and beautiful, has an outdoor rain shower. Love the sunset bush bar during the evening game drives.
