The chalet was spacious and clean but old. We enjoyed the activities there. The office staff was very hard to get in touch with and didn’t communicate well at all.

Séjour très agréable

Entièrement satisfaite par mes 2 jours passés à Ukutula Beau cadre bien entretenu et calme Très belle piscine Personnel sympathique qui fait le maximum pour rendre le séjour agréable Repas proposés copieux et bons mais peu de choix Il serait bien de changer les meubles dans les lodges qui commencent à avoir de l'âge en particulier les armoires

Lovely Experience

Pleasantly surprised at the lodge. Service was lovely and staff were friendly and helpful - even organising additional activities for us. Special thank you to Anna who was an amazing and knowledgeable guide. Dinner service was well presented and delicious. Accommodation was clean and well-maintained. Aircon was strong enough to cool the room throughout and bathroom + kitchen were spacious and tidy.

Iion walks!

I love this place! Yes you can walk with lions and play with lion and tiger cubs and tour their high tech research lab. I saw no evidence of harm to the animals - in fact they have conservation awards posted. The staff are warm and friendly, the food is amazing and the cottages are charming.
