e had a great time at Greenfire Game Lodge and definitely recommend to stay there! The chalets are very modern and stylish (even better than the pics); all having a terrace facing the river where often animals walk by. The food was excellent and the staff very nice. One evening we had an African barbecue which was great (the other evenings is was too cold to sit outside). We made the game drives and a bush walk with Given who is a very engaged and experienced guide. He is very mindful about the animals and the nature, e.g. we appreciated that there is no off-road driving to protect the animals. We saw the big 5 and also wild dogs and - for sure - a lot of other animals. On most of our drives we were only the four of us, i.e. they do not "fill-up" the cars up to the last place. Very nice! Carol and Nigel, the owners of the lodge, stay there and we had a lot of nice and interesting conversations.

We loved the intimacy of the Sausage Tree Safari Camp , the friendliness of the entire staff, the great quality of the food and the perfect location in the middle of the Balule Nature Reserve. A special thank you to Themba and Jimmy for the great morning and evening game drives. It was amazing how close we could get to the wildlife.

We had an amazing time at Milima. Everything was perfectly organized and taken care of down to the smallest detail. The location is stunning, even more beautiful than the photos. It's truly special to watch the wildlife at the waterhole right from your breakfast table or poolside lounger. But what made our stay truly unforgettable were the game drives with Thomas! Thomas is an incredible guide who knows everything about the animals and nature, and he goes above and beyond to make the experience as special as possible for his guests. Thank you so much! #teamthomas

Everything exceeded my expectations, The reserve was phenomenal, the lodge and staff were great especially Leanne our game ranger. She made sure she found us the big five and much more in 2 days. The best lodge and reserve I've ever been to, we absolutely loved every minute of it.

We were the only guests, and were given a free upgrade to the chalet with private pool. The host and gardener were also very kind and helpful. We greatly enjoyed spotting smaller wildlife from the hide out during the sunset and sunrise, and the peace and quiet of the stay. During the night we were visited by a honey badger twice that tried to get into the cupboards and fridge, some excitement for sure!

Incredible location well located in Hoedspruit! Ruan and his family (owners of the lodge) were super welcoming and so friendly. They let their home become ours which was a very personal touch! Would highly recommend!

Spent 5 nights at this fabulous lodge. We did a number of full day or half day activities which the proprietor helped to arrange for us and every detail was worked out, ensuring all we had to do was relax and be wowed. Returning to the luxury of the lodge and cooling off in the pool and the stunning grounds was a perfect way to finish off those days. We supplemented the chilling out process with drinks from the expertly curated selection of fine South African wines or beers, spirits and soft drinks. The interior of the lodge and the private suite could only be described as luxurious opulence furnished with many beautiful African artefacts. And as if all of that is not enough we enjoyed ample beautifully prepared and presented breakfasts. We were also privileged to play host to families of nyalas and warthogs who visited the area just outside our bedroom window and patio doors to feast on fallen amarula fruits. Wow wow wow !!!
