We had the entire 9 sleeper to ourselves. Very spacious. The manager was very friendly,funny ๐ and helpful. The place is way beautiful. It has enough fridges that you do not need to stock up on ice. There is a beautiful Lapa. Resting thatch roof place next to the swimming pool is amazing. Very much recommended for group trips or family trips. The manager is very communicative on the day of arrival to make sure you not lost. Will definately visit again. Beautiful Zebras on the lodge. Very clean also.
