I loved everything about this place, Sonja is the best I tell you. Very accommodating and kind. I even added an extra night just because I felt very welcomed and taken care off. This place is also stunning. It's peaceful, tranquil best place to read a book and relax.

Lovely location. Safe and low of wildlife to see. First time using outside shower. Was great but wall could be a bit higher. Being tall I could see people arriving in car park as our room backed on to the parking area.

“If you’re looking for the perfect getaway in Hoedspruit, this is the spot to stay at.”
Beautiful location, loved the room (had everything we needed) and pool area (stunning sundowner spot with giraffes visiting ), and a cosy fire in the evening. Staff were so warm and friendly. Everything was perfect. Enjoyed all the bush sounds, heard leopard & hyena through the night. And woke up to a stunning sunrise. Highly recommend!

“Highly recommended”
I have visited Leopards Lair previously, this is the third time that I have chosen to stay here. The accommodation is spacious, clean, and comfortable. The shared entertainment space is really lovely and it feels very homely. The space and location are exceptional and inviting. Communication is excellent. Highly recommended.
