"The booking, check-in and check-out procedures were all seamless. I received prompt replies and got accurate information. The unit we stayed in was spacious and perfectly suitable for two couples and grown children. The Lodge is situated fairly deep in suburbia but once you are there, you realise that you are close to the water and the sounds of hippo and birds transport you to another world."

"We are teachers in South Korea. We only come home to South Africa once a year to visit our adult children. This year we decide to go to St. Lucia for one week. It was just awesome. We enjoyed the accommodation and all the information given to us by the helpful staff. The house was clean and well kept and they even came to clean on Sunday. There were lots of things to do every day and to our pleasant surprise the hippos came passed our house late at night. It was awesome to stand at the gate and watch them pass."

"We enjoyed ourselves and this place is a must come back."

"We stayed for the weekend at the Ingwenya Lodge and had a very pleasant time. Madelaine was friendly and very informative. The luxury self-catering apartment was clean and quite modern. Only point to mention, is that you must bring everything, not even salt and pepper is provided."

The beds were very comfortable and the verandah has beautiful Seaviews.

We were stressed out when we arrived but the Ingwenya Lodge really helps you to relax and gives you a holiday feeling. The Lodge also has a beautiful new swimming pool with night lights. Everything was very nice and it is the perfect place to stay if you want to go to Cape Vidal or the Umfolozi/Hhluluwe Game Reserve and see the Hippos & Crocs at St Lucia.... "

"It was superb, fantastic, we really enjoyed our stay . The place was perfect for the two of us we really had a great time."

Thanks, to Barend and his staff's hospitality during our stay and accommodating us in the 'Hluhluwe' unit!..."

"Very clean, very beautiful view and surrounds. Small critique - my pillows were very thin and no spares were provided (I didn't ask for any, however,as my stay was only 2 nights).

"Very friendly staff, very clean, very comfortable.
St Lucia is a lovely place to stay.
At night you can see the hippos.
They were walking through the garden and drinking water out of the pool, unforgettable experience.
"

"I had a lovely stay at Ingwena. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and spacious. I will recommend them to others. "

"We stayed from the 11-13 July at the lodge. The place is nice and clean and very quiet.
We would go and visit again, even the dogs took a liking to us.

We enjoyed our stay, see you soon.

"We were extremely happy with our spacious apartment and were very comfortable for our two night stay. The kitchen is huge and I loved the big fridge/freezer. Staff are extremely courteous and helpful and the owner very knowledgable about his locality. The dogs are not a problem and we grew fond of the black labrador. The pool looked lovely but was too cold for us to use at this time of year. Fixtures and fittings are not five star but the two loos more than made up for that and the apartment was very clean on arrival. We felt it was very good value for the prices charged and we are happy to recommend this establishment. Hope you are luckier than us and get to see the hippos who occasionally drink out of the pool! "

"Nice place to stay in St Lucia, good services and rooms."

"Accommodation was comfortable, clean and adequate.
"

"We really enjoyed staying here. We loved the little personal care that was provided.
Oh and we loved the view!
Will come back!
"

Rainer and Martina"

"Good and simple lodge, for the price it was perfect and the owner of the lodges is friendly, and he helps you with every thing, good location, and St Lucia is nice for one week"

"You can go walking along the lagoon or go to the center without fear. The lodge is very well placed and very well equipped. In addition, Barend booked for us a morning safari, a boat trip and gave us lots of good advice (visits, restaurants, ...). Everything was perfect. Only time has not been part ..."

"Ingwenya Lodge is a nice place, it is very clean, and the service they offer is very nice. We really enjoyed it."

"The surroundings are beautiful, the walk to the lake refreshing. "

"We enjoyed our stay, the shower/bathroom was small, the view excellent, the only problem was the cooking utensils - the pan was rusted!"

"The premises of the Lodge are utilitarian, the bathrooms need a renovation and the cookware of the kitchen is poor. But the Mfolozi apartment is comfortably large and the garden and the pool are very nice and the view gorgeous. The two young dogs can be annoying, since they are quite clingy and lik..."

The two young dogs can be annoying, since they are quite clingy and like to play with everything."

"Comfortable accommodation and pet friendly. Kept very clean, really felt spoilt not having to do dishes or clean the braai. Lovely view with quiet surroundings and close to all facilities. File in unit with all the happenings and things to do in St Lucia, no need to visit the Tourist information."

"The Hluhluwe unit was very comfortable and had a great view. The cleanliness of the unit needs particular mention, and the braai was spotless. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The bird life was wonderful. We had an excellent 3 night stay and will return if we are ever in St Lucia ag..."

St Lucia town itself was most impressive, with really excellent retaurants and no obvious litter. We are proud that it shows itself off so well to all the foreign tourists we saw there."

"Set in the leafy suburbs of St, Lucia, Ingwenya Lodge was a peaceful haven away from the busy centre of the town. The Mfolosi unit which we had was perfectly located; beside the pool which kept the children happy and with views over the tropical forest to the distant coast for the adults to rest their eyes. The unit was very spacious for a family of 6. The furnishings were a bit dated and the bathrooms could do with some modernisation. However this did not take from the overall comfort of the lodge. The hosts were very helpful and friendly. "

"The owners are great received a warm welcome.

We enjoyed our stay. The staff members are all friendly and very helpful.

Will recommend Ingwenya Lodge to friends and family.

"

"We had a very pleasant stay at Ingwenya Lodge. The only negative remark that I would like to make is that the stairs leading to the unit is very narrow and makes it difficult to use however, this must please be seen as positive feedback as they are in the process of revamping all units.
