183 guests' feedbackWe had an amazing 4-day stay. Nick was an absolute star. Self-drive routes and shops are a short drive away. Listening to the wildlife noises at night while being able to sit in a safe, cosy boma by the fire was magic.
Upon arrival we were really amazed with the Teepees. We stayed at the Bloufalkie teepee and were welcomed with the firewood already in place and ready to light the bush TV. It was an experience to remember. We needed assistance with a few things and the facilitator was there within 5-10 minutes to assist. Already planning our next stay at Adama. A big thank you!
The tranquility of nature was just what we needed.
100% nice stay there.
My husband and I slept in a teepee at Adama Artistic Chalets & Teepees. It came with its own beautifully set out, and well catered for, kitchen and bathroom all contained in its own secure fenced-off area. It was clean and very well maintained. A large comfortable bed with lots of bedding. If you are a couple that likes a very quiet time away to relax and hear the birds and the sound of the bush, I would recommend a stay in an Adama teepee. Take lots to read or games to play. There is no TV and no WiFi. The access dirt road to and from the teepee was easy to navigate in a small car and well maintained. The pool on the site was also clean and well looked after.
It was very peaceful and we enjoyed it very much. We will definitely be going back again soon.
Our 3rd visit to Adama. It remains one of our favorite places in Dinokeng! Wonderful service and everything one needs! We will definitely visit again!
Stay was excellent.
I really enjoyed it, it was quiet and the view was beautiful.
Well rested and saw a lot of wildlife from the stoep.
Staying in one of the teepees at Adama Artistic Chalets & Teepees was a unique experience. It was surprisingly spacious and comfortable. Being winter, we were worried that it might be a bit chilly, but we were quite snug inside the teepee. Amazing experience to wake up with wildebeest and zebras only a couple of meters away. We never met any of the staff, but we were in contact with the host via WhatsApp, and he was on the ball with directions, contacts for game drives, and restaurants in the reserve.
Beautiful, neat little house in the woods. Peaceful and wonderful visit. Just a pity you can't use your hairdryer in winter time during long stays. Will definitely stay here again.
We had an incredibly nice stay! It looked like the photos, beautifully equipped, clean and wonderful friendly host! 'They went above and beyond'. I would definitely recommend the place.
Staying at Adama Artistic Chalets & Teepees in the bushveld was an absolute delight! Nestled amidst nature's tranquility, the cosy accommodation offered a perfect retreat after a long day alongside the sports fields. The views were breathtaking, and waking up to the sounds of birds chirping was incredibly refreshing. Our stay was comfortable and memorable. It was a rejuvenating experience, and I can't wait to visit again to unwind and reconnect with nature.
It was very private and we had a great rest. There was everything you need for a weekend getaway.
The place was excellent. Very quiet, clean. Very good customer service. We will definitely go there again.
Always nice to visit Adama Artistic Chalets & Teepees, everything you need and more, it's very unique and very peaceful and quiet. Everything was neat and clean. Nice braai area and porch and enough space for a family.
We had a very nice stay. It is even more beautiful than in the photos.
We had a very nice stay. It really was one with the bush haha. Would have liked to stay longer, everything was so nice and clean. Really a great place for romance and getting together with friends and family. Would only make the grill setup a bit better, but it was still very tasty. Thank you, Adama. We'll do it again soon.
Was so amazing. Will definitely go again.
It was a wonderful break for the weekend. Peaceful and quiet. Ideal to refresh your mind and soul. We had everything we needed, with complete privacy.
Nice quiet midweek break.
We had a wonderful stay. The place is perfectly located in the nature reserve near several restaurants.
It was our third time at Adama, but the first time in Visvanger. We spent 3 nights there and it was absolutely worth every penny! What we especially enjoyed is that you can't see or hear the other guests at all - completely alone in the forest. One can experience nature in the outdoor shower and the bathroom inside was well equipped and tidy. The biggest plus was the comfortable veranda where we spent most of our time, the boma braai area and the game drive we went on. We will definitely return again!
We had an amazing time. Love Dinokeng.
Really loved it. The place was amazing. Everything you need for a simple stay. The host was amazing. Highly recommended.
Everything needed was available and clean and tidy. It is always difficult to use a gas geyser shower.
See stars.
Very cute. It's a shame the toilet was dirty when we got there.
We have enjoyed our stay.
Was fantastic. Will definitely do so again.
If you want to serve game, I would say visit during the week.
Everything we wanted for a quiet getaway to enjoy the sights and sounds of the bushveld, complimented by a neat and very unique accomodation which had all the essentials to make a comfortable stay.
Adama was clean, got everything you needed, very accommodating, and friendly. Beautiful.
This is our second visit and it was just as good as the first time. We came to rest and recharge batteries. This is exactly what we get when we come to stay here. This is all the soul needs. We are already looking forward to our next visit.
Overall great product and excellent customer service.
Communication with customers is fast, clear and friendly. We will definitely go back. The chalets are truly unique.
A great stay and perfect for our family!
We got fast, friendly service. Very neat and clean.
Beautiful chalet, clean and tidy, well located and the ideal getaway spot.
A wonderful stay with an elephant who came to braai with us!
The chalet is clean and sufficiently equipped for 2 people. The equipment is all in good condition and clean.
We always like to stay in Volstruis. It is located to one side. It is peaceful. Blue wildebeest and Zebras pay regular visits and then the fox that also pops in from time to time. Otherwise, this is a well appointed, well maintained, all-you-need built "teepee". Just too delicious for words. Well equipped for 2 people. You can lie on your bed and just stare and listen to the night sounds. Lovely seat in front of the house to have a barbecue or simply just look at the stars or sunrise.
Adama's cottages are unique and fully equipped. Good value for money, clean, tidy and safe. Enjoy a nice fire by the boma and on a hot day the outdoor shower. Definitely a must.
Very quiet, neat chalets and affordable.
See stars.
The variety of animals that came to visit (zebras, warthog family, blue wildebeest and foxes) made the visit special. The absence of a TV at Adama Artistic Chalets & Teepees is a plus; who needs a TV when you have nature in front of you? Adama Artistic Chalets & Teepees is a must for nature lovers.
It was really very nice. Nagapie is exactly what we needed. Neat and clean. The owner and caretaker go out of their way to make everything as comfortable and convenient as possible.
Adama was absolutely beautiful. The unit is so interestingly and cutely decorated. Beautifully and artistically decorated.
It was really peaceful and quiet in beautiful surroundings. Would highly recommend.
Tranquil, peaceful, lots of animals to see, beautiful sunrise, magical sunsets. Amazing!
Adama Artistic is one of the best and most peaceful of 5 resorts that my wife and I have visited in the last 3 years at Dinokeng. Great service by Nick and his team. The Nagapie cottage is beautifully designed with everything you need to experience a relaxed and peaceful weekend. We will definitely come back again!
Lovely little unit, has all the basics one requires for a short trip. The little boma is wonderful for stargazing.
Adama surprised us and see us again in the future. It's just the place to hang out with family and friends around the fire. The tranquility suffers a little because of the road that passes nearby and on a busy weekend it can interrupt a bit of the tranquility.
We cant fault anything at Adama besides maybe the lack of a braai bak. We absolutely loved the chalet and would highly recommend Adama to friends and family. We will be back again asap.
Very nice and clean house. Nick was a perfect host. The owner really makes visitors' comfort a priority. And the pond was an absolute bonus. Three days of absolute rest!
The chalets were fantastically laid out. Everything needed was there, we booked 2 chalets for the weekend and after the great service and communication from Nick we also booked a teepee when more people came and needed accommodation.
The place was really neat and beautiful, the kitchen and the bathroom were clean. We were kept informed of the load shedding and any changes. I will definitely stay here again!
Loved the decore and simplicity, our stay was very relaxed and peaceful.
The venue was very close to the main road, quite busy and noisy. Besides that, the stay was wonderful.
You just have to take it easy on the dirt road there. The information that was sent to me on WhatsApp explained very well how the gate works and all the do's and don'ts. The TeePee tent was very comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped, only missing a braai tong and the bathroom is comfortable and has everything you need. Had a great time.
The Teepee is neat and clean. However, the kitchen is very small and lacks even more basic kitchen tools such as mixing bowls, vegetable peelers, colanders, etc. A canopy over the braai area will be a positive plus point if it rains.
We stayed in Hoopoe chalet. Nick was a great host and answered all our questions and requests promptly and kindly. The house is truly unique and beautiful with exceptional attention to detail. The built-in glass box with straw was my favorite. We saw lions, rhinos and many other types of wildlife and bird life. The kitchen is basic and I suggest if you love cooking to pack the following: sharp knives, non-stick breakfast pan, wire whisk, vegetable peeler and plastic cutlery for smaller children. The upstairs room has very steep stairs and may not be suitable for certain people. The fairytale door on the 2nd floor that leads to the beautiful outdoor balcony is truly special! The chalets on Adama feel very private and we never saw or heard the other visitors. The neat farm pond/swimming pool was a favorite among my children, a real experience for them. The safari mall is conveniently close, but also sometimes you can hear the road from there. Thank you very much for an unforgettable weekend!
Nick was an absolute delight with information and assistance not only at the chalet but with advising the best surrounding activities available. Adama is a true bush experience of leaving the city behind and being in touch with nature. There was an added flare of enjoying some bubbly at the little dam "pool" relaxing in the shade of the beautiful tree next to the latter. The teepee chalet is a hybrid of glamping yet not taking away the full "camping" experience.
Very nice for a quick weekend getaway.
Received a friendly welcome from Nick. It was lovely to just relax. The power went out (not loadshedding). Nick kept us informed immediately. But it didn't bother us at all. It was lovely even though it was raining too. Couldn't have asked for a better place, was lovely just to recharge.
Thank you very much for a nice weekend, very clean and tidy. Enjoying nature, you can't ask for anything better. Thank you Marius and Leandra.
The Houtkapper unit is beautifully laid out and very tastefully furnished. Everything one needs for a short stay is there.
It had been an incredible experience in the Teepee and especially to hang so peacefully in the hammock and watch for the wildlife. We will definitely visit again.
If you like rustic and in the woods, this is a fantastic place. Very well furnished.
We were very impressed on arrival, everything is beautiful and clean and the boma is swept with a fire already packed. The bed sleeps wonderfully and everything is beautifully made with so much detail, it was very nice to stay there. Thank you very much.
Second time back at Adama and you see us again.
We had a very nice stay. Such a beautiful place. Will stay there again for sure. Just a pity we didn't see elephants.
One hour's drive from Centurion. Nice deep in the woods, a real gem. All arrangements were 100% in place and Nick was on hand with all information about and in Dinokeng.
Great place to stay and we really enjoyed it.
A must. Excellent experience.
Wonderful stay in Dinokeng, would go back anytime! The Nagapie chalet is ideal for families of three.
Absolutely fantastic, peaceful, tidy, everything you need.
Very nice place, service is fantastic, Nick and Armand solved any problems immediately.
Place was so rustic and crafty and something else the tranquility is wonderful. Bed slept very well so another plus.
Unique experience in the Teepee accommodation. Even though it was a weekend filled with challenges of Eskom loadsheeding, huge storm and rain and even elephants destroying the watertenk, the hosts were amazing and looked after the guests. If one has such a wonderful weekend under these circumstances, imagine the good times under normal operating conditions. We will be back!
Very peaceful in the middle of nowhere. You hear the foxes in the evening and sometimes the lions too. Has everything you need, but if like us you don't want to leave the windows open, just bring a fan. Otherwise it gets quite hot. Will go there again.
The teepee is a unique accommodation but still has everything needed and even though we had to cut our holiday short Adama was still accommodating and friendly.
Will stay again.
We stayed in the Hoopoe house for 5 days. Although it was quite cold we didn't even need to use the heaters. This is our second visit to Adama (formerly Teepee). Nick, the caretaker, is very friendly and helpful. We saw respectively a herd of zebras, nyala and two elephants around the chalet early in the morning during our stay. A night owl also made a turn in the front room's roof. Be aware of the squirrel that also lives there, I named him Fred. There is a pamphlet about his presence. I would only recommend to prospective guests to bring sharp meat or steak knives, but I managed easily at the trinket shop at the Safari Mall which is just around the corner. We will definitely book there again.
Enough space, not cramped.
Very private, value for money.
The white sheets are great, but the rest is "old-fashioned" and gives the feeling of being old. Maybe 2 extra rolls of toilet paper will work comfortably for a 2-night period with 4 adults. Breakware and pots 100%. But if it rains, where do you cook the meat - there isn't an oven? Was nice of the owner to send updates about loadshedding.
The bathtub is the best and I really like the decor. Very rustic, exactly what one needs for a getaway.
Fantastic location and a cozy chalet, would definitely recommend.
Unit (Nagapie) is very private and quiet. The surrounded boma area is perfect for making a nice fire, barbecuing and being social. Adama is also located within the reserve so one does not have to drive out of another gate to drive around the game reserve. It was our first time in Dinokeng Game Reserve but the good impression that Adama left will ensure that we come back again.
Dit was een van die lekkerste kuierplekke wat ons al besoek het. Nader aan die Skepping kan jy sekerlik nie kom nie. Erica is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam, dit voel of sy jou al jare ken. Ons sal beslis weer teruggaan. DIe kombuis is goed toegerus, die badkamer netjies en skoon, en die tent was so mooi. Ons moes met 'n swaar hart gister huistoe gaan.
The tranquility and natural beauty is exactly what one needs in this busy life.
We enjoyed our time so much. We shared our little house with 2 squirrels and a night owl. We were also visited by wildebeest, jackals and a brown hyena. We rested so well and sat around the fire.
Had a wonderful stay in the Nagapie. We were 3 people and stayed very comfortably. Wonderfully secluded, small fireplace inside the house and lovely iron bath which the children quite enjoyed. Furthermore, a lovely fire pit that can be used outside and is fully equipped. Very central in the reserve which was great with the Safari Mall just around the corner if you need anything (wood, meat or ice). Refrigerator is very small, making it difficult to take more than a few days worth of food or to store ice.
The Visvanger chalet was beautiful, we had a great rest. The bonus was the giraffes, zebras and blue wildebeest that came to visit.
My daughter and I had a girl's bush break at Adama and had a wonderful stay. The chalet (Kiewiet) is comfortable, clean, and equipped with everything one needs. The peace and quiet is really good for the soul. Erica was a nice, friendly hostess who made us feel right at home. We were skeptical about how comfortable the sink bath would be, but it really was the most amazing bath ever! Everything was great and relaxing. Thank you for having us!
Neat, safe and rustic, yet with all essentials such as a very well-equipped kitchen and hot water in a nice bathroom, all in one. The teepee tent is very spacious inside and sleeping facilities are first class. Will go again! Even 2 bags of free wood to start your first night.
Really enjoyed the pots of paint.
This was a beautiful spot to get away and just rest. Even if there should be a power outage, you'll still have everything you need. Erica was always ready to help. The teepee was wonderful and clean and private.
The weekend was amazing. The setting was very romantic and private. The lay out of the house and the décor is fantastic. Everything that is required for a weekend away is provided. The simplicity and the atmosphere created is just wonderful to experience. This was definitely a very romantic, memorable and relaxing weekend. We were welcomed with open arms. Definitely on my list of to do again events. Just a special mention of the bath in the bathroom, it is like a small pool, amazing. Jackals just outside the boma and the animal calls in the night. One of our best weekend away experiences.
Neat, well equipped. Had lots of animal noises at night, with zebras grazing between the units. Even saw a cobra and a fox.
Clean, tidy and the decor is exceptional.
Adama is the most peaceful, tranquil and safe home away from home and a 5 star bush experience to die for. It is run superbly and everything we needed was there - we had a marvelous time. We'll definitely be back.
The outdoor shower and toilet, the privacy as well as the building style make it a unique experience.
Very nice, not entirely suitable for small children, it was difficult to keep busy, but my husband and I will definitely use again for a getaway.
Erica was a great hostess. She also looked after our little girl's safety. She immediately informed us of hyenas that were in the grounds. We really enjoyed our time in Adama.
Nice stay. Everything one needs. Bedding is very old, maybe time for new ones.
The units are far enough apart that it doesn't bother.
Perfect weekend getaway. The Teepees offer a unique sleeping experience. Bring some bug repellent in the warmer months.
This was our second visit to Adama and the Visvanger clay house. So much character! Very special accommodation, unique. Lovely stoep, boma and hammock under the trees. Very private and surrounded by nature. Heater is fitted for cold evenings. Road noises are faint every now and then, but mostly you only hear foxes calling in the night. Easy access to the self-drive routes, restaurants and Safari shopping centre. Friendly management. We will definitely come again!
You are in the park so it makes it easy to get back on the self driving roads. Definitely make the effort to stay there again. There is a bit of noise from the surrounding roads but I think this is the problem with most tent type accommodation in Dinokeng. The facilities are wonderfully clean and user friendly. Great for a quick get away and have a camping weekend with little effort.
You have a good time outside, but the inside is quite nice and the seat is quite uncomfortable. It didn't bother us because we are outside people but it will bother some people. It is an ideal weekend getaway.
Adama (Lark chalet) was exceptional. Lots of detail in the design of the chalet. Comfortable with everything you need for a few days in the woods. The wood duster was a winner for the winter nights. We had a great time in our own boma while the wildlife grazed around us.
Had a great time in the cottage, maybe pay some attention to bed! Everything was clean, tidy and cozy.
It was very nice. The place is neat and practical. The TeePee is interesting. The passage to the TeePee is just very low and people with back problems will find it difficult to get in and out.
Would recommend, although the owners could do with renovation.
Can see there is a personal sense of decor put in there.
Fun place, every nook and cranny has something different, artistic and interesting. We had a lovely stay, beautiful pottery in kitchen, bushbabies visited, saw Black Wildebeest, Zebras, bonded with nature and re discovered playing games. Truly a lovely visit and something we would do again.
Adama is nice and central.
Supplier's equipment also not up to standards.
Untidy but the owner handled the matter properly.
It was one of the nicest and neatest places we have ever been. The decor and homemade crockery are irresistible. Will definitely visit again.
Experience of a lifetime.
Beautiful setting. Close to nature. Very private. Great for bird watching. Loved every minute of our stay. Will definitely stay again, just longer.
Ons was al voorheen daar en dit is min dat ek weer na plek toe gaan en die was ons tweede keer en nie laaste.l nie
Good boma area, well located and quite private.
We had such a lovely weekend in Nagapie. The accommodation is quirkily decorated and was perfectly clean. A lovely surprise to find the sleeper couch was an actual bed with well-sprung mattress. Erica was very welcoming and helpful the whole weekend. We will definitely be back and will recommend Adama to everyone.
Who would want to stay in a hotel where one room after another is a replica of the previous one? Why not rather stay in a place built and furnished with heart and soul? Adama is such a place ─ unique crockery, comfortable furniture for sitting, lying, relaxing, eating and visiting. Combine this with the calls of foxes or early morning blue wildebeest visitors, a crackling barbecue fire in the boma and smoldering coals in the stove and you know, we had a wonderful time here.
Rested so well, without any noise and cars making noise. The linen smelled so good and everything was neat and clean.
Quiet area. Well equipped chalet. Well maintained.
We were in Hoepoe.
We had a really nice stay. The chalet was very clean and tidy! It is one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed.
Maybe an "aircon" in the chalet (Lark).
The whole experience was perfect we were looking for a weekend to really just chill and for the kids to enjoy. The pool provided lots of fun for them and we were able to relax.
Great place for a forest break in nature. Very well appointed accommodation with everything needed. Special atmosphere with unique theme and decorations.
Accommodation was clean and tidy and very unique. The environment is nice and quiet and you can relax in nature. Will definitely come again and recommend to family and friends.
The chalet was very clean and beautiful. The personal touches from the owners made the place unique. Enjoyed our stay.
The Chalet is beautiful and well laid out for two people. The bath on the stoep is a lovely private place to cool off. The service is excellent and Erica was a great help with many suggestions for what to do around Dinokeng. I would suggest that the farm dam, which has been converted into a swimming pool, get a few comfortable kick-out chairs where you can bask in the sun. Guests should also be made aware that there are no other activities available. I will recommend Adama to friends and family.
An adventure to stay in such an artistic place. Close to the Dewagendriftpad which is quite busy. No direct access to the reserve which is annoying. We had to drive a long way around to enter Dinokeng.
Although it is beautiful, there is no privacy in the house so a group is not recommended. The dogs, chickens etc. in the area also takes away from the forest atmosphere.
So well planned and gorgeously decorated. Something so unique and fun. We had an amazing stay!
We were impressed the moment we stopped there. The pinch grates were already right at the boma and spotless. The chalet was spotless and incredibly tidy. Loved the interior decoration and the pottery. We had such a nice time on the stoepie and slept wonderfully. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.
Lovely place, very unique, but everything you need and more. Nice and relaxed.
Quiet place with many things and places in area.
Paradise. Safe, clean, fantastic tent, unique, peaceful. Just a peace of heaven. Heard hyena, zebra, lion and jackals calling at night. We had zebra at our camp site 04:00 in the morning, within touching distance. It was just so relaxing. Friendly and accommodating owners. Just wonderful.
Very nice, clean and private chalets. Can hear animals in the evening and is close to self-drive in Dinokeng.
Very comfortable, and so quiet.
A perfect option close to Gauteng. Peaceful, quiet, private. The teepee and facilities are 100% adequate, neat, and enjoy all the artists' hands in the style and décor. The field and trees were a feast, and then all the bird sounds. We will definitely be returning visitors.
See stars.
Will use them again!
Satisfied with everything. Thank you.
Friendly reception from Erica, with silence and rest. Residence is well equipped and very tidy.
Dit was regtig rustig en baie lekker, het dit baie geniet ons gasvrou was baie oulik.
We really liked the design of the chalets, as well as the private boma/braai area, not too close to the next chalet. Suitably stocked kitchen, gas operated hot water, comfortable bed. Very quiet, so a great place to relax.
Chalet very well equipped and well maintained.
The chalets have everything you need. It was mostly very peaceful and quiet. On Saturday night there was music that was played quite loudly, but we weren't sure if it was in Adama itself or if the sound just traveled far. Because there are no cushions for the wooden furniture, it is not very comfortable. We knew in advance that you are not allowed to walk around in Adama and that is the only reason why we will not sleep there again, because my friend likes to go walking.
Enjoyed it a lot. Was clean and tidy there. The park around Adama is fantastic with lots of animals and places to eat. Could have done more to provide for loadshedding and bigger fridge for the beer.
This place exceeded my wildest expectations!
It was a great weekend. They offered us an extra night at a cheaper price and that made the weekend even better because we had the chance to do more. Will definitely go back. The hostess is very friendly and helpful.
I would definitely recommend that place to people who want a nice peaceful weekend relaxing in the open air and nature.
What a wonderful place to stay in. The chalet was tastefully decorated with every amenity that you could ask for. It is such a special place and made us feel right at home. Thank you for a wonderful weekend away!
Had a fantastic stay here, helpful people. The place neat and clean.
Chalet was a pleasant surprise. Far enough away from the other guests to enjoy the peace and quiet.
We had privacy. It was quiet and stunning. Everything was neat and exactly what we needed.
Very tidy, very hospitable reception, lovely atmosphere.
A wonderful experience staying with Adama! Truly true in the woods and part of nature. Our group was in Hoepoe and Visvanger and the houses are unique and capture the imagination. Our 'self-drive' game viewing experience was also delightful and full of adventure. Thank you very much for the hospitality and that we could share in the piece of paradise!
Advance information was communicated in a timely manner. On arrival everything was in place and we could go straight to our chalet - no administrative red tape. Chalet is neat and well equipped. Safe atmosphere. Close to all tourist attractions, shops and eateries. Highlights are the animal life around the chalet, day and night. Will definitely use Adama again. Thanks for a lovely few days!
Near Pretoria for a weekend getaway. Thank you for your hospitality.
Had a lovely stay and was able to watch an Impala grazing from our bed through the bedroom window.
The accommodation was clean and tidy and everything we needed was there. We would have liked to see some animals near the chalet, but the tranquility made up for it. Thank you very much Erica, your kind welcome is much appreciated.
We've spent 3 nights in the Teepee. What a wonderful experience. Will definitely go back.
We had a very nice and peaceful stay, the places are very cutely furnished.
Wonderful arty place for a weekend getaway.
Quiet place with everything we needed. The place was colorful with creativity around every corner. A pleasure to stay here. Would definitely recommend to people who just want to get away.
Good break from the city. The hammock under the tree was a nice surprise and perfect to lie in and read a book for hours. The sherry that was waiting for us went down well.
Erica was fantastic and made sure everything was ready for our arrival and even let us know about events on the way to Adama on the day of our arrival. We really enjoyed the break and hope to visit again soon!
It was simply fantastic, the chalet is indescribably beautiful, practical and blends in nicely with nature. The outdoor bath is wow.
Very neat accommodation. Interior decoration wondefully creative. The calm refreshed us and now we are ready to face the city with renewed vigour.
Very neat place with beautiful scenery. The animals are around your house all the time, you don't even need to go looking for them. Really a beautiful place with friendly service and the house itself is also very clean and relaxing.
We were kindly welcomed upon our arrival. The Hoopoe Cottage is beautiful.
We stayed at Adama's for 4 nights. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to relax in the bush. Kiewiet chalet was beautifully and rustically furnished with everything one needs. A very nice break just nice and close to Johannesburg.
Perfect getaway close to Johannesburg with a chance to see some of the Big 5. We only managed one elephant! The cottage was charming and well equipped. Very comfortable.
