Sun International, The Palace of the Lost City hotels

"What an amazing experience. The lodge is beautiful-including great upgrades such as an infinity pool and wellness spa all nestled in a picture perfect bushveld setting. Every single member of staff were incredible. They were so friendly and helpful, always wanting to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. We thank them for all that they did for us. And special thanks to Dolfi our guide who took us around the reserve on our game drives. His energy and passion made every second special. Not only did we see such amazing animals, but Dolfi also took time to share in the conservation efforts and the spectacular plants and wildlife. His knowledge is fascinating and compassion for his guests and ensuring their enjoyment was refreshing. Thank you Black Rhino Lodge!"

"Great place …I knew that renovations were being done .It will be even better once it’s done "

"Just so stunning. It’s all in the small attention to detail. Luxury inside the bush. It doesn’t get better. "

"The property location was great for our daily safari. The staff are welcoming and made my shy kid feel right at home. The kids enjoyed the impromptu elephant visit at lunch time and visits from Zebra’s at breakfast. I would definitely recommend the place for a family visit. "

"Amazing stay, staff were incredible space and venue's stunning. Stay again when back SA. "

"We had an amazing stay at Bakubung! The staff were all so friendly and accommodating. Our flight from Cape Town was delayed by several hours so we arrived at the lodge close to 10pm. Not only did they respond to my email quickly to reassure me that the late check-in would be no problem, but the receptionist quickly guided us to the restaurant as soon as we arrived, as the kitchen was closing and she wanted to make sure we had something to eat before bed. The chef was about to leave for the night, but she stayed to accommodate us. We were so grateful and assured her anything that was quick and easy to make would be perfectly fine with us, and not to trouble herself more than necessary. She asked if pizza was okay and we said that would be perfect. Well… she ended up making us a beautiful salad, a pizza, large bowls of pasta and a tray of desserts! Totally above and beyond all expectations and everything was delicious. The restaurant staff stayed to serve us as well and were very kind. We also happened to get a room upgrade, as the standard rooms were oversold which was a nice bonus. We are so grateful for everyone’s thoughtfulness and extra kindness and hospitality during our stay."
