16 guests' feedbackIt was very nice. My boy enjoyed the warthogs so much. Will recommend it to everyone.
Tlou Lodge het ons harte gesteel. Daar is soveel om te doen en die gidse en personeel is fabulous. Beplan al klaar ons volgende naweek daar. Als is skoon en netjies en die natuur is beeldskoon rondom jou. Kan nie genoeg van die plek kry nie!
Very clean and neat unit and well equipped for the stay. Wonderful to wake up and be graced by the presence of pheasants, warthogs and njala in the garden!
The accommodation was perfect, had everything one would need to have a great relaxing stay. Sitting on the porch sipping our morning coffee we were greeted by a family of warthogs, mongoose and an array of bird life. Thank you for the memorable weekend.
I enjoyed the stay and will be coming back, if prices don't go up.
We had a wonderful time at Tlou Lodge. It was perfect for our family. The house was neat and tidy and everything in working order. DStv stopped working for a short time but we contacted the person on duty and it was sorted out promptly. Will definitely go back.
Really enjoyed our stay, the amenities and the entertainment were very good.
Had a great time, will go again.
Very modern, neat unit. Friendly service and nice stay! Would recommend to anyone who loves the woods and silence!
Will definitely visit again, really enjoyed it.
Dish-washing liquid will be good. Braai facilities are limited.
If a deposit is paid for inventory, in case things go missing or are broken, it would be nice to make sure everything that is supposed to be in the lodge is there to start off with. Maybe mosquito nets on a window, seeing there is no air-conditioning and it would be nice to open windows at night.
It was very nice and enjoyed it a lot. I had one problem and that was that the key to the unit was not available as instructed and lost two hours as a result until other plans were made to obtain keys for unit.
The unit was pretty clean. But the photos on the website are very misleading. The photos give the impression that the unit is surrounded by woodland. But when you sit on the patio you have a view right on the parking area. Not at all the idea the photos create. Very disappointing, not worth the money.
Private, centrally located in reserve, walking distance to swimming pools and restaurant. We really enjoyed it, will definitely book a weekend at Tlou Lodge again soon!
The place was stunning.
