Cheap hotels in Timbavati Game Reserve

Great Lodge. Fantastic service, amazing safari experience with great ranger. life-time experience.

Clean and secluded stay. Very nice staff. Took good care of us and very helpful in our food choices as we prefer vegetarian .

As reluctant as I was to spend what I consider a lot of money even though it was for my Wife’s 70th 😊I now have to say it was money so well spent. The accommodation, food and staff were top class. What was there not to like? The only thing that comes to mind is having to leave ☹. A big shout out to Kevin, an excellent butler who was consistently friendly, professional, and willing to help….and always remembered our drinks of choice. Of course, the main purpose for us was to see wild animals in their natural habitat and this we did on every drive with the expert skills of Herbert(tracker) and Julian (Driver/Ranger). The passion and skill set that Herbert and Julian demonstrated on all our drives was exemplary. Seeing leopards, cheetah, rhinos, zebra, giraffe, elephants, wart hog, packs of wild dogs etc up close was so special. Topped in some way by the excitement that Julian showed when we saw a lynx on a cheetah kill. Julian was full of useful information about all the animals we saw. His passion for his work was obvious. How Herbert spotted a camouflaged leopard on a termite mount at 80-100m while we could hardly see it using quality binoculars or seeing a 2-inch green chameleon in a green leafed bush in the dark by torch light amazed us. The drives were excellent. We liked what appears to be the self-imposed rule of only 2 safari jeeps on any animal sighting at one time with others hanging back and waiting their turn, thus avoiding a free for all, which I’m led to believe happens in the main Kruger Park. We also liked the interaction between ‘competing’ lodges whereby they constantly updated each other about current animal sightings.

This is a value for money accommodation and wifi in my room was strong. The room was comfortable and sleek looking with everything you'd need for the stay. Breakfast was available and we enjoyed the meal we ordered.

We arrived quite late after a struggle with navigation but had great directiond and such a warm welcome from our host Annie. The house is so beautiful and inviting, with such a great eye for detail. We loved spending time on the veranda and the evenings around the fire was exactly what we needed after long days in the Kruger. We loved the four legged friends that checked in every now and then. We hope to come back and enjoy more of the facilities!

Nice hosts, they prepared dinner for us for 150 ZAR/person on request, but the dinner was a 3-course buffet. Beef stew with rice, vegetable salad with dressing, Greek salad, and fruit salad for dessert. I have to say the food was the best of the whole holiday I have spent in Africa. Big comfortable bed and pillows, shower for 2. Close to Kruger park.

We decided on short notice to stay overnight at the Lodge, and left feeling rested and satisfied. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The dinner was good, and the breakfast was excellent. While there is no Wi-Fi in the rooms, it is available in the restaurant and main building. I would gladly recommend this place at any time for a peaceful and tranquil bush experience.

Everything, comfortable area, nice food, friendly people, best rangers, ….. we would definitely come back!

Very clean and comfortable. Hosts were great and always there to check up if we were ok or needed anything. Also it felt very safe being there. No need to worry about our stuff being stolen etc

Everything was awesome, i enjoyed my stay. I'd advise everyone who needs a Getaway to go to Geurnsey lodges.
