What guests think

At Black Rhino Game Lodge, travelers consistently praise the friendly, attentive staff and knowledgeable guides, the scenic wildlife-rich setting inside the reserve, and well-organized game drives that deliver memorable sightings and an immersive bush experience between relaxed stretches of downtime.

Rooms are widely described as spacious, modern, and comfortable, and many guests compliment the overall cleanliness. Facilities include an infinity pool and a wellness spa, though connectivity can be unreliable, with spotty Wi-Fi (sometimes only at the bar) and occasional brief power interruptions. Food earns frequent praise, but a few reviews call it average or basic, and there are isolated reports of administrative missteps or maintenance issues. Expect a scenic, hospitality-forward safari lodge with comfortable accommodations and engaging drives.

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!

Perfect vacation, perfect schedule with morning and evening safaris. Relaxing during the day at the pool. Delicious food and a lot of animals in the „garden“ in front of the lodge! The Luxury Suites were simply amazing. We loved it.

Struttura caratteristica, curata e pulita. Cibo e cucina ottimi. Personale molto disponibile e reattivo. Nonostante non siano riusciti a risolvere un problemino nella ns stanza si sono mossi molto tempestivamente cercando in tutti i modi di risolvere ma non essendo in città capibile il tempo necessario per recuperare i ricambi.

The temperature was 37 C (100F) the air-condition in my unit was broken. I wasn't told about that and the management expected me to stay in the room because "this is Africa". I had to raise a hell so that they found a room for me in a nearby Lodge. But schlepping around from one Lodge to the other destroyed my one day visit. Additionally the two safari trips were disappointing. The guide gave the impression that all he is interested in is to pass the time and if we don't see animals - never mind.

Had a great stay here, very attentive staff, although reception administration could use a little training. Cabins were wonderful, large and full of character. Game drivers do their best to find animals but there are no guarantees . Remember you’re in the middle of the African bush, wi-fi is spotty and the power goes out briefly, don’t be a baby!

Experiência INCRÍVEL. O hotel é maravilhoso, staf absurdamente simpático, estrutura impecável, tudo muito limpo e organizado, comida EXCELENTE.. Sem falar nos games drives que foram um capitulo a parte, nosso ranger percorreu o parque inteiro e pudemos ver todos os big fives mais de uma vez. E no final ainda tivemos a companhia de vários elefantes na piscina do hotel, mágico! 😍 Melhor estadia que já tivemos!

Though fine, the room did nòt match the photos provided. Pillows were horrible - well past their prime. Food was quite good. First time in my entire life I had to pay for drinks on a game-drive. The lodge has small things it can improve on that will make a huge overall difference. Most staff were excellent.
