Wildlife on our doorstep
Comfortable rooms, good breakfast and close to everything we wanted to see. The pool and à la carte dining were a nice step up.

Guiding was the highlight
Perfect first and last night — they even stored our bags while we were in the bush. The pool and à la carte dining were a nice step up.
