These cottages are absolutely suburb! We loved the sweet little path to the cottage (many birds and red duikers to spot), the comfy beds, great kitchenette set-up and host who went above and beyond to make sure our kids also had a blast. The adjacent Delishh restaurant was simply the cherry on top!

Beautiful, small lodge in a quiet location. Great value for money. Tessa the guest relation manager and all the other staff are amazing, super friendly and accommodating. They arranged for us different tours and were always providing valuable program suggestions. We especially liked the horse riding at Bhanghazi stables and the night turtle tour with Shakabarker Tours. We stayed 5 days at Leopards Corner Lodge and enjoyed a lot. Thank you Tessa&team for making our stay so memorable.

It is an amazing place we want to come back to. We were delighted during our stay for several reasons. Firstly, our room was beautifully decorated. Every small detail, including the scent, was carefully considered. For instance, there is a comfortable bathtub with a bathtub tray and candles; the sink is decorated with the image of a hippo. There are gels, shampoos, body lotions, cotton swabs, and pads near the sink – all the essentials for a comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable, and I must say we are quite particular about it. There is a TV in the room – although we didn't watch it, we enjoyed listening to the radio with local and classical music. Additionally, we were provided with tea, coffee, and small snacks in the room. Secondly, the owner of the place, Adrian, helped us plan and organize our stay in St. Lucia. Thanks to him, we had the best experience during our entire journey in South Africa. We had a boat tour to see hippos. Importantly, we were on a boat with only a few tourists and a knowledgeable guide, while other ships were crowded with people. Our guide showed us some additional sights. The next day, we went ocean fishing, and there were only five of us on the boat. We were very lucky, and for 3.5 hours, we enjoyed whale watching. Now, we have hundreds of pictures and videos of whales, and I even caught a big tuna! Adrian joined us to ensure the fish was properly cooked in the restaurant. It was a delicious and unique experience; we had never eaten such fresh tuna. Adrian also provided suggestions about restaurants, local markets, and other excursions. We truly appreciated the way he and Marie treated us. Thirdly, the breakfasts were superb. In the evening, guests can come to the hall, have a drink, and listen to music. There were books and photo albums available. For those interested, there is a small pool. We didn't swim but enjoyed its illumination in the evenings. We highly recommend booking this place.

Beautiful rooms - the large wrap around glass doors let nature in. Lying in bed and seeing a bush baby catch insects - just wow! The staff are wonderfull - helpful friendly and doing their utmost to make your stay memorable The food is delicious- cooked to perfection and served with a smile The bushwalking with Mlu. His enthusiasm shows and tracking the leopard ( which we did not see) was a highlight. His love and knowledge of his culture and the bush is infectious Proximity to Hluhluwe Game reserve and other attractions

We did not eat there we booked at the self-catering chalets. We would have loved to have breakfast but find R185 pp is a bit expensive. We did have a drink at the bar witch we loved as the bar lady was on the ball and so help full and friendly and to top it off, she brought us a bowl of popcorn, what a nice gesture. The property is like a little place in heaven rest for the soul. Will definitely be back, and the birding is fantastic.

St Lucia is a great holiday destination.

St Lucia is a great holiday destination. Nice small village, you can walk freely at any time of the day or night. The John Dorys was fantastic. Spar and Shoprite allow you to purchase what ever you forgot at home. Traveling to Cape Vidal was epic, we saw Rhino and Hyena just passing our vehicle. Please check what time is low tide so you can better enjoy snorkeling at the reef.

I will always recommend to have a tour guide when you getting to the wild side because our tour guide was more than the word perfect in terms of understanding the area and animals and the zoo as whole.

It is THE place for scuba diving in South Africa! We can only recommend it ! Beaches are empty and one can snorkel on the house reef during low tide. Pity about the state of the reserve in general as it is not maintained and one often find no running water at the showers located at the beach.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the wonderful hospitality I received during my stay this past weekend. From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely welcomed. The food was exceptional and truly exceeded the value of what we paid — generous portions, great taste, and beautifully presented. Gogo’s warm and caring hospitality made the experience even more special; it is clear that she loves people and takes pride in making guests feel at home. The pool experience was also fantastic — clean, refreshing, and perfectly positioned for relaxation. I was equally impressed by the quality of the furniture and the attention to detail in the décor — everything is top-class and thoughtfully put together, creating a comfortable and elegant environment. Thank you once again for the outstanding service. I look forward to visiting again and will certainly recommend your lodge to others.

We booked for 6 nights but left after the first night. I cannot recommend this place to anyone. The owners is misrepresenting the property. There was no ice machine. Aircon was not working. Shower is not draining the water away. Pool and entertainment area needs TLC. The unit was cockroach invested.

Set in the wilderness of KZN, this is a beautiful and comfortable lodge fitted with all the comforts one would need. Beds are comfy and the air-conditioning works superbly. The outside showers are amazing, you will love the pool and the hiking trails around the reserve. Spot the extensive bird life, zebra, buck and giraffe. Pack for a braai, because this place lends itself to the braailife.

The road from Ermelo to Pongola, especially just before and after Piet Retief/Mkhondo is terrible. Rather take a longer route which ended up being quicker and safer as you didn't have to worry about the state of the road.

Our time at Sodwana Bay was just what we needed!

Our time at Sodwana Bay was just what we needed! The diving was fantastic, as usual. There's so much to see underwater, from vibrant coral to curious marine life—it never gets old. For the family, the beach was perfect. The water was warm, which meant the kids could spend hours swimming without getting chilly. Plus, the currents weren't too strong, which made it safe and enjoyable for the little ones to splash around. It was a great mix of adventure and relaxation for everyone.

Central to a number of tourist attractions, i.e. Umfolozi National Park, St Lucia part of the iSimangaliso Wetland Park. The town is a typical bustling, vibrant rural town, traffic a bit chaotic. I was staying for business purposes, If on vacation I would have probably stayed closer to where the main tourist attractions are.
