We thoroughly enjoyed our mini bush break at Panzi Lodge. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by smiling faces and staff going above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable and enjoying their time, whether you went on one of the many adventures in the area or chose to relax by the pool. The personnel were always ready to assist with arrangements and dispensing valuable advice and recommendations about the area and having a friendly chat at dinnertime. Our room was immaculate and tastefully decorated. Sipping your morning coffee while monkeys, bushpigs and zebras graze around your chalet really revives your soul! The outside showers and privacy of each individual chalet were amazing additions to relax and restore. We hope to visit again very soon!

The food for breakfast and supper were amazing. They have set 3 course meals for dinner and a standard egg, toast, bacon, sausages, fruit and cereal for breakfast. The entire lodge is fairly small, so it makes the places really comfortable. The viewing deck was nice and big. The aircon in the rooms was a big win for my wife and myself. The activities were the best part. Some might find the activities pricey but if you're willing to do a lot, do it! The activities will form great experiences with family and loved ones and you'll have great memories. The staff was absolutely wonderful. Very kind, caring and the customer service was really taken at a high regard. We felt like very special guests. Overall I think the lodge is only going to get better and more wonderful as I've heard that the owner is taking the initiative to keep the lodge well maintained and dazzling. We loved our stay at Panzi Lodge.

Everything was really nice. No real big inconveniences. The staff will do anything they can to solve problems as soon as possible if they arise.

Charmaine was incredibly helpful with all requests and always asked about how our day in the Kruger went! She asked about onward travel and gave recommendations for those locations - and places to avoid! The food was lovely and we loved the honesty bar idea! Leah the Spaniel was probably our favourite part of staying at Panzi Lodge. She was so well behaved - and with both of us working in the veterinary industry, we couldn't get over how healthy she looked! We miss you Leah!

The rooms were very private, but this meant quite a walk to the reception area/where we ate. We found the bed very hard, while it is difficult to cater for everyone's mattress preference - we like a firm mattress, but this was too firm for us! Luckily, we were so tired from the excitement of animal spotting in the Kruger that we still fell asleep before too much time had passed

We stayed 4 nights at Panzi Lodge and it was a remarkable experience. Our wooden chalet was really nice and comfortable. Each morning we could see some small animals roaming around and at the viewing deck we could sometimes see buffalos, zebras and giraffes. The staff was very friendly and made our stay at the lodge feel like a dream. Delicious breakfast and dinner was served everyday. The game drives we did with the lodge were amazing. We are very thankful to Irene and Charmaine who made everything perfect for our stay.

Our stay was great, the lodge is very nicely planned. The fact that there are only 10 rooms makes the experience much better and cosy. The staff is super friendly, kind and helpful. They take the time to talk to everyone, inform diligently on everyone’s individual plans. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here.

The location is very good, you can get to many activities easily. Since it is in a reserve the drive to get to the hotel is a bit bumpy but its all part of the experience and it’s not too bothersome.

I enjoyed the Bush environment and spacing between Charles, thus great thus value for money.... no interference in passage and corridors with other guests. It was excellent, wish to have a return soon.

The bumpy dusty road to the guest house from the main road.... One with a small car will find it hard to manuavre eroded places of the road surfaces... maybe a little bit of maintaining will assist. ... although it's a collective thing since its a public road.

The property was like a rain forest. I loved being surrounded by trees. It felt like I was somewhere in Bali. The staff were super friendly and made our stay comfortable.

It was raining when we checked in, so the gravel road leading to the lodge was wet, slippery and it was a mission to get to the lodge. The booking came with breakfast and dinner & the dinner on the second night was horrendous. They need to hire a professional chef to do their cooking. We only ate because shops and other restaurants were too far and the road was not in the best condition for us to drive at night.

The food was quite good, very accurate to the local food. The manager of the lodge was very sweet and helpful with regard to recommendations on where to eat as well as activities we should try. The lodge is quite removed from any major cities so there is no noise, and seeing the animals up close was amazing, highly recommend it.

The roads are not paved and we didn't know this before booking so it was difficult anytime we wanted to come or go.

The staff working there is so lovely!!!!! The room was very comfortable, clean, well equipped and the location in the reserve is great! Dinner and breakfast were also very good! Good distance to make the Panorama road, and the Kruger Park as well.

For small cars, the road to get to the accommodation can be tricky and pretty long (need to drive slow to avoid getting a flat tire).

Interaction with the friendly staff and accommodation being nestled amongst the trees. Irene and Charmaine were also excellent hosts and made sure we were well looked after .

Inconsiderate (noisy) guests on our first day but the lodge management attended to this very promptly and in a professional manner.
