Top Sondela Nature Reserve Hotel Reviews

Golden Lantern Guest Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and friendly staff"

Babohi at Qwabi Private Game Reserve by NEWMARK

10/10 Excellent

"Our family group of five (across three rooms) had an exceptional stay at Babohi at Qwabi. The safari experience exceeded every expectation, giving us close encounters with many animals. We enjoyed a sundowner with Rhinos walking around us, and woke up to Lions roaring in the early morning, moments we'll never forget. We also spotted Elephants, Hippos, and Giraffes throughout our stay. The rooms were beautiful, spacious, and incredibly comfortable, offering the perfect retreat after a day out in the bush. The food was consistently delicious and of high quality, with every meal feeling like a special occasion. What really made this trip stand out was the staff. Joe made our game drives informative and exciting, and the front desk, restaurant, and housekeeping teams were all impeccable, warm, attentive, and professional throughout our stay. We'd happily return and recommend Babohi at Qwabi to anyone looking for an authentic, high-quality safari experience."

Grafiti Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very nice hotel with very welcoming staff - would recommend"

Zebula Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing location, great food and very helpful staff!"

ATKV Klein-Kariba

10/10 Excellent

"Accommodation is basic but clean and functional. We love all the outdoor pools both warm and cold as they are in pristine condition. The indoor hot pool is amazing at night. Good way to relax before bedtime. There is only one waterslide but it is fast and fun. Mini golf course is very challenging but great."

Buyskop Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Truly an excellent choice. Having stayed at over 14 different locations around South Africa this last month this was refreshing. The chalets was comfortable and had everything we needed. We were gutted to stay just one night as we did not want to leave. We were urged to stay at the ATKV but decided to try this. True, the pool and hot (ish?) pool is small but the zebra’s, giraffes and other animals wandering through the chalets made up for any of it. It was also quiet and relaxing. So if you want fun, higher energy stay i would go across the road to Klein Kariba but if you want truly relaxing and enjoying a quiet fire, animals etc then this is it."

Klip en Kristal Guest House

8/10 Good

"Friendly staff upon check in, spacious and clean room that was of an excellent standard, lovely and tidy pool area with well kept garden, good location in quiet area just outside the town centre which was ideal. Easy check out "
