Guest Comments for Amakhala Safari Lodge

“This lodge was beautiful and relaxing and set in a very tranquil place. The staff was great especially Cien our butler and our ranger made it possible for us to see all the animals.”

M MARIN, September 2011

“Amakhala Safari Lodge was a really beautiful place with lovely people, great service and a real romantic feel to it. The perfect start to our honeymoon. The ranger was superb, very knowledgeable, professional and great fun. A great few days and we got to see the Big 5! I would certainly recommend this to anyone.”

J PRATLEY, November 2010

“We would have no hesitation in recommending Amakhala Safari Lodge, the facilities, food and service were unobtrusive but excellent with many thoughtful touches. The staff were friendly and always ready to help make our stay memorable.”

S DEWHURST, September 2010

“We were very pleased with all the accomodation provided for us and couldn't fault any of it. The manager Helga at Diamond House was particularly helpful providing local advice, but all of the hosts were friendly and welcoming and all of the venues were pleasing.

The Amakhala Safari Lodge was fantastic and we very much enjoyed our stay there, over and above the great safari experience. The whole trip was everything we could have wanted from a honeymoon, thank you. Most of the hosts gave us a little treat or gift to acknowledge our marriage, which was very thoughtful and much appreciated, and it made it seem more special.

Finally, we have been absolutely thrilled from start to finish with the service from Travel Butlers. Travel Butlers have always responded quickly and efficiently to all our queries (and changes!) and met both our requirements and our budget. We are very thankful for your support and feel lucky to have found your company, thank you!”

“Amakhala Safari Lodge was great and staff couldn't do more for us - wonderful service.”

L WHITEHEAD, October 2009

“Everything about Amakhala was terrific. Our first safari but not our last.”

N MCCONNELL, March 2009

“The holiday was great - thanks for your help with it all. I don't know where to begin ... all the accommodation was spot on ...

I think for serenity, views and the breakfasts, the Dune Guest Lodge was a great place.

Of course, Tsala was really beautiful too but our day there was slightly marred by ongoing drizzle - at least we could have a cosy fire though !

The highlight would have to be the safari - the folk at Amakhala Safari Lodge were very welcoming and gave us a good / varied itinerary of activities. It was great to find our suite all spic and span everytime we went back to it ! The food was pretty good too and it was most memorable driving around the reserves - we got to see pretty much all the animals - lions, cheetahs, rhinos, buffalos, elephants etc - no leopards but never mind.”

L FORD, November 2008

“Our holiday was fantastic, thank you very much for all your assistance!

Our stay at Amakhala Safari Lodge was absolutely wonderful, they looked after us very well and we had some incredible encounters with the animals. The safari lodges were really fantastic, and we particularly enjoyed the small touches, like the champagne they left by the bath each night, and the night-time stories left on our bed.”

V LINCOLN, March 2007

“At last have a second to say thank you so much for making both our trip and my birthday so very special, I loved South Africa and would love to go again. Your choice of accommodation was brilliant and Amakala Safari Lodge just superb. I shall certainly recommend you to everyone who wants to go to South Africa.”

J CLINTON, October 2006

“The itinerary you gave us was excellent, the service and standard of accommodation was first rate. The food was again very good and I did'nt struggle at all as I'm a vegetarian, infact it was better than some resturants here in the uk!  The food at Amakhala Safari Lodgewas excellent and the safari was fantastic ... the staff could not have done enough for us...I would definately reccommend it!”

H SEVIER, April 2006

“Just wanted to let you know that the Safari Lodge at Amakhala was superb. Very personal care was taken and the owners and all staff so kind and helpful. Full marks - we would rcommend them to all.”

C GOLDBART, March 2006

“Hi Paul. I just wanted to let you know that the safari was absolutely perfect. Amakhala Safari Lodge is a wonderful place, the staff and rangers are most accommodating - I highly recommend it to others. Thanks. Happy Holidays!”

M CUDDEBACK, December 2005

“I have been meaning to write to you for some time and I must apologise for the delay!

You organised a safari for myself and my partner back in December last year at the Amakhala Game Reserve in Port Elizabeth, South Africa.

We had the best time ever and it blew any prior expectations we had away! The accommodation, staff, location, food and not forgetting the animals were all up there on the best holiday yet!

We were only there for 1 night but went on 2 drives and were very lucky to see Lions, Rhinos, Buffalos, Giraffes, Cheaters, Zebras, and many more animals in their own habitat.

We couldn't fault anything, particularly your organising and knowledge and wanted to say a massive Thank You for making this such an amazing experience to remember!

On our next Safari trip I'll definitely be getting back in touch!”
