Hluhluwe

"The lodge is lovely with very attentive staff. The cat sanctuary is a must visit and trips to Hluhluwe was easy to organise. It is an easy drive to St Lucia and to Bayete to see the elephant education demonstration which is a must-do. Be aware that there is very little around there so likely you will need to eat dinner at the lodge. The foods is quite plain with not much choice. Also be aware that the rooms have no TVs. I would recommend the Lodge for its position and the attentive staff."

Thanda Safari

10/10 Excellent

"This is an ultimate holiday. The lodge is extremely spacious, spotlessly clean and an absolute eye candy !! Food is of high quality and very well presented. Staff are amazing. Pleasant, attentive and very quick to respond. The Game drives are very well planned. We were lucky to have Cameron as our guide and driver and Muzi as our spotter. They work in close unison. Cameron is an encyclopaedia and takes time to explain you everything. They also treat you very well with the Amarula coffee and drinks in the bush😄. We had many incredible sightings. This is a truly five star experience."

Rhino Sands Safari Camp

10/10 Excellent

"The service, food, staff, the safari guide (Brian) all of them were amazing!!"

Leopard Mountain Safari Lodge

8/10 Good

"The good: staff was very friendly and kind and the reserve has a beautiful view over the valley below. They went out of there way to be helpful. The game vehicles were comfortable and we appreciated having a storage locker between the seats. Anzel was super kind and really tried hard. We liked the little surprises that they had throughout our stay. The bad: hot water in the shower was good for 2-3 minutes and then went cold. Elephants are on other side of the reserve and are too far to reach on a typical drive. The food was not to our taste, we would have preferred a grilled steak or chicken option versus pork belly and ox tail. We have been to several game reserves and while everything was pleasant, we preferred the overall experience at the other reserves."

Duiker Game Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great venue and staff"

The Wilds Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect for family peace and quiet. Very friendly and welcoming staff. The place is 5 Star in my books"

Ezulwini Game Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We cannot say enough good things about Ezulwini! Gorgeous views, comfortable accommodation, amazing food, friendly staff - it was just top notch, thank you!"

Rhino Ridge Safari Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Staff members were full of hospitality, the main area is spectacular and cozy. Three hours driving tour through the game reserve was fun, but since there are two driving tours per day, it’d be nicer if there are shorter hours options well because three hours driving can get tiring."

Ama Zulu Guesthouse and Safaris

8/10 Good

"Very good, cozy and comfortable"

Malkoha Lake St. Lucia

10/10 Excellent

"The property is beautiful and I loved the boardwalks through the forest. The staff was very helpful, professional, and friendly - they went out of their way to accommodate me as a vegetarian and the chef made a delicious curry even though it wasn't on the menu. Thank you for the lovely stay!"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Kwanompondo?

The best area to stay in Kwanompondo is the central district, particularly around the main thoroughfare of Chief Albert Luthuli Street.This central area is the town's commercial and administrative hub, offering convenient access to local amenities and services.

It's easy to navigate on foot to various points of interest within the town, and public transport links are readily available for venturing further afield.

When is the best time to go to Kwanompondo?
