The personal touches that will make me go back is 1) A late check in (around 21:00) was no problem and we were served delicious welcome drinks even though it was late 2)Every night the heaters were turned on so our cottage was not cold at all when returning from our activities and 3) warm water bottles were brought to us every night."

"Had wonderful stay at Blyde River Wilderness Lodge. Just a pity is was only one night however I welcomed with attention to detail and made to feel at home in a beautiful piece of haven. Food was great, peaceful, comfortable and only a few minutes from mist sightseeing attractions.. Value for money!"

"The room is big, clean and has a private balcony facing the river. The environment is great with animals around the cottage. The staff are great, as well as the food. Room did not have a heater, but once we asked, heating was provided. It's really great. Highly recommend. "

"What an amazing place. The rooms looked lovely when we arrived. The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to help you. Had a lovely evening around the fire listening to hippos. Wished we could have stayed longer! Will definitely go back."

"The four nights we spent at the Blyde River Wilderness Lodge were perfect! We were two families and we had the big rondavel and one of the smaller cottages for the week. The accommodation was great value for money. Super clean, cosy, comfortable beds with nice bedding with enough warm, snuggly blankets, tastefully decorated etc. The kitchens were well equipped and the best of all was the enormous fireplace and barbecue facilities outside - well stocked with wood every night. Despite the fact that the evenings were chilly, we were able to sit outside the whole evening with the sound of the resident hippo in the background. The beautiful pool and deck with sun chairs overlooking the river will be fantastic to use in the summer. All in all, this was a great place to stay. We brought overseas visitors along to show them the area, and we could not have chosen a better place. Of course, the zebra, giraffe and njala awaiting us at the gate when we arrived were the cherry on the cake! Cynthia, John, Ralph and everyone whose names we did not get - thanks. It was a great stay!"

"We really enjoyed our stay! Amazing location, pool and lapa and the rondavel was very good indeed. The breakfast was amzaing and great value!"

"It was really, really quiet. We did enjoy the getaway from the city. It is a beautiful lodge and had very friendly staff."

"It was a great experience. We had a very charming room in a heavenly garden. The dinner was fantastic. This lodge is one of the nicest places we stayed at in SA."

"Its a beautiful lodge with great scenery. The people very friendly. The room we stayed in were absolute beautiful with a view on the river. The food are great. They treat us like a king and queen on my husbands birthday. We will definitely go back there to relax.

"Such friendly service and happy faces, it was definitely well worth the visit! The rooms were lovely and clean and the views amazing to wake up to.
Thank you for the experience."
