The setting was beautiful and the grounds so well maintained. The rooms were exceptionally comfortable in every way. The staff were welcoming on check in, and wherever we were, they were friendly, courteous and helpful. The food was exceptional and we couldn’t find any aspect of our stay that could have been improved on.

All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. (We had a problem with our car tyre and they helped us fix it.) The food in the restaurant was very good (dinner and breakfast). The location is perfect if you want to visit the national park.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of spending our honeymoon at Sasi Africa Luxury Bush Lodge, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely pampered and immersed in the beauty of the African bush. Overall Impression: Sasi Africa Luxury Bush Lodge exceeded all our expectations. It was the perfect honeymoon destination, offering luxury, privacy, and adventure. We highly recommend it! Privacy and Seclusion: The lodge's intimate setting was perfect for our honeymoon. It felt like we had the entire resort to ourselves, allowing us to truly relax and connect. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, always available yet respecting our privacy. Culinary Delights: The food at Sasi Africa was divine! Each meal was a culinary masterpiece, featuring fresh, local ingredients and creative flavors. The breakfast spread was particularly impressive, and we loved the perfectly crafted lattes and cappuccinos. Luxurious Accommodations: Our tent was a haven of comfort and style. The modern yet rustic design blended seamlessly with the natural surroundings. Waking up to breathtaking 360-degree views of the bush each morning was a true highlight. Unforgettable Safari Drives: The safari drives were the pinnacle of our stay. Our guide, Mthoko, was exceptional. His passion for wildlife was contagious, and his knowledge and humor made each drive an adventure. Main Area and Amenities: The main lodge area was beautiful and welcoming, always clean and tidy. The short walk from our tent added to the sense of seclusion and tranquility.

The cottage is wonderful, clean, very weel kept and it has everything one needs for a pleasant stay, you can also buy wood for the brai there. The owner is very kind and gives you all the info to get to the place. What is so special is the view from the property though. The Drakemberg in front of you during one of those mesmerizing South African sunsets is something you will never forget. I will be back for sure to suck that magical atmosphere in again

Your go carts were broken.

Your go carts were broken. Only one was working and we couldn't race each other. No activities were taking place. No pony rides for small kids. No electric blankets Wood was super expensive. You only had facilities operating at a particular time zipline, go cart and horse riding. This should be open throughout the day. Your shop is far away at the entrance. Anytime we needed anything we had to drive. Shop should be near reception. No shower in the main bedroom. Absolutely inconvenient. I will never recommend this place to anyone. It's deteriorating with their facilities. My toilet was not cleaned during my stay. My room bin was not emptied. Very bad value for money. Will write a review on hello peter

The scenery is just magnificent, the drive to the resort is short from JHB and very scenic, the roads are good and safe. Little Switzerland lends itself to a relaxing vibe from the minute that you drive off the main road into the resort.

We really liked the fact that the staff was mostly friendly and accommodating. The chef managed to accommodate our specific dietary requirements on short notice and the result was really good. They had fires going in the living area and lit the fire in the restaurant even though we were the only people there at that time.

The room's view of the mountains was excellent. Food was so good. Drinks were pricey, and dartboards needs to be replaced. But that's literally the only negative I can give the resort. It's really a lovely place and remember to ask for a room with a view!
