Bon hotel mais très peu de service.
Dommage qu'il n'y ai pas au moins du thé/café à disposition pour les clients

Un endroit secret à proximité de Blyde River Canyon.
Après une route un peu escarpée, vous passez un pont et arrivez sur une île privée au milieu de la Blyde River. Lian et sa femme vous accueillerons dans cet endroit absolument magique. Nous avons dormi dans une tente. Et contre toute attente c’est très luxieux, propre et confortable.
On a l’impression de dormir au milieu de la jungle.
Vous pouvez diner avec eux, ou bien vous faire votre propre Braai. Une cuisine commune très bien équipée est à disposition des clients. Nous recommandons vivement cet endroit, bien qu’il mérite de rester secret tant c’est une perle rare !
