Botswana
Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location on the Olifants river and the animals walking right past the patio was amazing. Meals were great. Never went hungry. Staff were friendly and attentive. Rooms were cleaned quietly while we were out. A real little gem!
Negative: Generally great. An upgrade to the bathrooms may be beneficial as a tallish person cannot stand comfortably under the shower head. Perhaps a pressure pump could also increase the pressure in the shower. The single bed mattress has a well slept in hollow which can make it a little uncomfortable. Overall, no dislikes just a few suggestions.
Summary: A peaceful two night stay in a beautiful location with friendly and attentive staff.
