Anew Hotel Hluhluwe ★★★

"Great location, excellent balcony and view. Bad access road to the parking, poor/old touch points makes the hotel feel unkept and uncertain of your stay."

The Wilds Guest House ★★★

"The host was very professional overall, gave us lots of information on places to eat out and visit. We stayed in a large family unit. I was very comfortable and cosy. The aircon worked well in the summer KZN heat. Linen was changed every day, I would return anytime for another stay. "

Ama Zulu Guesthouse & Safaris ★★★★

"We had a lovely stay in this nice, very clean and good located guesthouse. Very friendly host, clean rooms, nice swimming pool. Good breakfast. Good location, 15 minutes to Hluhluwepark, nearby shops and restaurants. We recommend this guesthouse !"

Emdoneni Lodge with Zululand Cat Conservation Project ★★★

"Since 2008 I come to this lovely , friendly beautiful lodge and the owners Cecillie and Louis became close friends. Their kindness is reflecting on all the staff and this year I came with my son and wife. Camilo was excited to see the Zulu cat center and he became a certified junior ranger!! A stay we´ll never forget! Thanks to all, thanks Rebecca and Ingrid and all the staff, love you:-)"

Gooderson Bushlands Game Lodge ★★★

"I planned a vacation to go for a game drive and so I booked at this place since they advertised game drive trips. When I got there however I couldn't go for a game drive because the staff gave me stories each time I wanted to book a game drive. As a result therefore I my vacation was finished without a single game drive. Bed sheets were also filthy stained"

Duiker Game Lodge ★★★

"Absolutely amazing weekend away. The staff are so helpful and friendly. The rooms are super comfortable."

Ezulwini Game Lodge ★★★

Gooderson DumaZulu Lodge ★★★

"While very clean, potential of the lovely lodge is sadly let down by their lack of maintenance. Shower-heads in both our rondavels provided extremely minimal water - just getting soap rinsed off was a challenge so washing hair after a day in the bush is not an option. Bathroom door did not close due broken parts. Braai grids rusted & cooking in the kitchen was made difficult with only 1 medium frying pan, no pots, no wash-up cloths. Our one rondavel had no stove or microwave. Staff were always pleasant & arrival assistance with trolly was good, however, departure assistance was non existent. Staff need a heads-up that tips usually happen on departure. Having someone supervise these little things that make a big difference to one’s stay is vital in the hospitality industry as there are so many places one can choose from."

Malkoha Lake St Lucia ★★★★

"Sadly, we only discovered there was a mistake with our booking when we arrived at the property. We had contacted the property directly to book two nights and compared their quote with the one we had previously received from BushBreaks. The quote from Malkhoha appeared to be cheaper, so we accepted it, believing we were getting a better rate. Unfortunately, we only later discovered that the property had quoted us for one night only, while the BushBreaks quote was for two nights. The property charged us R18,450 for two rooms for a single night, whereas BushBreaks had quoted R25,400 for the same two rooms for two nights. When we raised this discrepancy with management, they were unwilling to provide a satisfactory explanation and instead asked us to check out. The whole experience left us feeling disappointed and misled. We struggle to understand how a third-party booking company can offer a rate that is so much better than the property's own direct pricing. Based on our experience, we do not recommend this property. We also feel that the rates being charged are excessive for what is being offered, particularly given the way this situation was handled."
