It was the best place I have ever been to. I did not expect such service. All the staff was very friendly. All the staff were like best friends who were constantly worried about us. There were more staff than guests in the lodge. The food was very tasty. The Internet worked reliably and we watched youtube. The Lodge area is very cozy and large. We did not think about anything and enjoyed being in this place. The safari was also great.

Friendly staff but roof leaked at night time!

We have stayed in Lukimbi Lodge for the 3rd time. The location is excellent and the staff was very friendly. However, this time we did not have the same exceptional experience like the first 2 times.
