Reviews of Pezulu Tree House Lodge


"The unit was stunning"

Elise Bonett

"We loved everything - the price was quite expensive and then I did not know about the conservation levy, but perhaps that was my fault."


"The Perfect Lodge for individually traveling familys!"

Norbert Wirth

"The tree house and the friendly team, which take care of you!"

"Pezulu is a great get-away, quiet yet full of animal live. The Honeymoon suite is the BEST, there is a water hole right in front of the Tree House with a Bush-Baby (Nag Appie) living in the thatched roof...!!! which makes the stay even more worth while. There are other Trees Houses available if your group happens to be bigger, that have walk-ways between the rooms that can be found in separate trees but part of the same Tree House.
All the Tree Houses are far apart from one another with thick bush in-between, so when it comes to showering or bathing it is met with giggles and some shyness at first; why you ask? Well the bathroom(s) is protected by mosquito nets but open to the bush... adding to that feeling of being one with nature, being part of nature.
Supper is offered in a boma where a lovely bonn fire has been started and coals spread out for the bowls and pots that serve you with warm tasty food. And breakfast is served in the open dinning area, and often there might be some buck or Giraffe passing by on their way to a watering hole.
Bush walks are offered for those who prefer taking some time out in between the trees and grass, with a guide of course as one can never be to safe. Game drives are offered to those who prefer viewing herds of Buffalo, Spring Buck, Zebras, etc. You might be lucky and spot a pride of Lions in the area, the guides will try their best to help you spot a Leopard resting or sleeping in a tree.
My wife and I thank Pezulu Tree House Lodge for their friendliness and the kitchen staff for the lovely meals they provided. And WE would HIGHLY recommend this Lodge to any everyone.
Room Tip: Best sunset views, 3G, swimming, pool table..."

"We spent just one night at Pezulu Tree House. Overall we really enjoyed the accommodation. the tree house is something special.

Breakfast was really good, dinner okay . Unfortunately there was not enough food for all - dinner.

Besides, I was asked in advance if we have any food intolerance or allergies - but this was not considered for breakfast or dinner.

Service was good though. Price is also alright. We would recommend this accommodation and also the really good big5 game drive!"


"Weekend getaway"

(South Africa) Mark Pain

"Thank you Claude for going out of your way and organising my wife's pillows to be dropped off at the main gate. She forgot them at the lodge. It was a great stay and we will be back again."


"Unbelievable place"

"Eine wirklich sehr sehr schoene Lodge mit freundlichem Personal und mit bis ins detail durchdachten annehmlichkeiten! Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen!!!"

"Our stay at the lodge was fantastic. Mike and his wife were wonderful and really did more than what is normal to make our stay memorable. Our bush baby roommates were inspirational and they made our quiet late afternoon relaxation on the deck most enjoyable. The only complaint we had was not about Pezulu itself, but the contractor they used for our game drives. Orloef was a dissapointment and he did little to make our trip informative or enjoyable. I think the cost of having a driver instead of a ranger is excessive. Thank you to all the staff and management of Pezulu for making our stay special."

"What a wonderful experience as 'man goes back to live in trees'. Friendly staff, good food and beautiful recovery after the heavy floods 2 weeks before our arrival But be aware: consult their website or staff for prices of game drives, which are not included in the price quoted.

Tree houses are not for sissies: due to the nature of the construction there are lots of insects, frogs and geckos inside the rooms (I guess snakes can also make it inside), so sleep under the mosquito net. Find out about 'high tea (light meal)' included in the price, but which we somehow missed or weren't offered.

The following needs attention to make this a 5 star rating: The rooms with larger trees (especially marulas) need to be cleaned (wiped) twice daily to get rid of the leaves, sticky resin and resulting ants and other goggas. A bug spray should be provided. Coffee making facilities need improvement (replenishment, rusks, maybe a plunger). Our matress was not of the expensive type and towels have become thin with excessive use. Otherwise? Highly recommended. We loved the weekend."


"Superb"

(New Zealand) Blyda Mackey

"Although we did not see a lot of animals, we enjoyed the experience. Excellent food and ambiance. We enjoyed the nice touches such as the welcome drinks and sherry after the game drive. The staff is very friendly. The Honeymoon Treehouse with bush babies and frogs was a great experience."


"Yay for Pezulu"

(South Africa) Marci Handley

"Our stay at Pezulu Tree House Game Lodge was fabulous! The attention to detail and the friendliness of the staff, particularly Mariska and Andrew, made for a memorable family holiday. Thank you!"

"Wow! What an experience. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by friendly faces! We felt right at home our entire stay! The food was amazing and we loved the dinner around the boma every night! The staff were great, helpful and always went out on the limb to please us. Claude and Lydia are doing an amazing job at Pezulu! We were fortunate to see four of the Big 5 up close and personal on more than one occasion! Jeff, Danie and Diana really showed us a great time during our stay, having late night drinks around the boma! Wow! We learned so much during our stay and enjoyed every second! We will definitely stay again in the very near future!"

"Nice variety of food at the buffets for High Tea and breakfast. That night we had kudu and other delicious dishes in the bomba/outdoor barbecue area. Wonderful South African singing while we ate. Tree house had a special atmosphere and we heard the impala running underneath that night. The staff were very friendly and the children enjoyed visiting with the friendly dogs. The puzzles and books laid out in the sitting area near the buffet area were welcome distractions for our children."

"What an awesome place. If you're ever seen TreeHouse Masters on TV, this is as close as you're going to get. Beautiful lodge. Amazing rooms, right up in the tree tops. We had both giraffe, an owl and a wide variety of buck stroll casually past our deck. Not too cramped (only 10 units). Vaughn (owner) is a hoot - make sure you ask him about both the Polish and Russian Vodka.

Our stay was capped off with a 45 min impromptu walk with 6 giraffe mingling around the house.

We'd go back in an instant. "

"Had a great stay. A very unique setting. The tree house was spacious. The inside bathroom had a great Jacuzzi bath which overlooked the waterhole. Some great views. Everyday some sort of wild animal was near or around the tree house, game like giraffes, warthog, impala and zebras. With Thorny bush nearby you could hear the lions roaring at night. The food was very good, varied and substantial, you never felt hungry. The staff work very hard, they were very pleasant at all times. Definitely a place to revisit.

In the evening you see warthogs and in the morning zebras ant antelopes. Great."
