Absolutely faultless from start to finish. We had the best experience possible thanks to the wonderful team at Tilney Manor and Jordan, our amazing guide. Jordan went to every effort to make our game drives as intersting and as tailored as possible. His knowledge and skills are brilliant. Thank you Sanbona for the memories that will last a lifetime.

Our stay at Sanbona was truly magical. From the moment we arrived at the main entrance up to the moment of exit we were treated to wonderful hospitality, service and awesome wildlife viewing experiences. We stayed in Tilney Manor for 3 nights and during that time enjoyed 5 safari drives. Although on the drives we had very cold windy conditions this was a small price to pay to be able to see elephants, giraffes, black rhinos, lions, kudu, eland, klipspringer, oryx, springbok, baboons and even cheetah. All of this was sandwiched between superb meals and wonderful service from staff that make you feel part of the family. We were celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary and were treated to extra special touches to recognise this. By staying for 3 nights we were able to skip one safari drive and enjoy the spa facility and the accommodation to the full. All of the staff were exceptional including the staff at the welcome lodge and transfer drivers - one of whom stopped for us to view some Zebra that we encountered as he was transferring us for our departure. This made the day for another group travelling with us as the Zebra was the only animal they hadn’t seen!! Such service and experiences provided by a non profit organisation dedicated to conservation and rejuvenation of the area. What more could you ask. You simply must go!!

We had a great 2 night stay at Sabona Wildlife Reserve. Especially our game tour guide Nicole gave us three fantastic game drives. She was able to answer any question re. the animals and the plants in the park. Luckely we saw the BIG FIVE. The rooms had comfortable beds, a large balcony with perfect wievs of the surrounding area. Overall the staff was helpful and friendly. The restaurant offered a perfect breakfast and the dinner on the first evening had a good choice of meals. 2.nd evening dinner unfortunately gave us no choice.

This was our first safari experienced in Africa and loved every minute. We loved the whole ethos of Sanbona .... they are creating a wildlife reserve that is a true representation of the semi-arid Little Karoo. There may not be as many animals here as on other large-scale reserves further east but we were privileged to see many species, including witnessing lions chasing an Eiland through the gorge. Our guide, Ryan, was wonderful ... SO knowledgeable, calm, funny and totally passionate about the animals and the whole ecology of the reserve; their ethos surrounding sustainability is outstanding. The scenery is both vast & beautiful. Rooms were extremely comfortable, service from all staff excellent; we felt valued as guests, particularly regarding the "extras" we received as celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary; a big "thank you" for that. One small area of disappointment was that the food was a little lacking at times, in comparison to other venues we have stayed on our trip. We would return in a heartbeat!

Es un lugar mágico. 62.000 hectáreas de tierras salvajes pero perfectamente cuidadas por un equipo de 180 profesionales desde guardas, seguridad, veterinarios, gerencia, camareros, chefs, servicio de limpieza que son realmente adorables en todo la amplitud del término, además de excepcionales profesionales. Las instalaciones son impecables teniendo en cuenta que están en medio de la naturaleza pero a tiro de piedra de Cape Town (2 horas y media de viaje en coche). Los guías son unos apasionados de la naturaleza fauna y flora y se lo saben todo. Hay lugares más salvajes quizás más lujosos pero no tan cerca de una gran ciudad y desde luego con un equipo tan extraordinario como el de Sambona.

Our rooms were just magnificent it was a shame we didn’t have more than one night. The reserve is huge but feels like a proper game reserve hunting for the animals is a true Safari experience. The staff were all very friendly and the game drives were fun. Keep up the good work can’t wait to come back.

This was without doubt the best part of our two week stay in the Cape Area. We stayed in the Tilney Manor part of the reserve in one of the best rooms we have ever stayed in. There were only 6 couples in the Tilney Manor so it was very personalised service. The staff including the guides were excellent as was the food. We were only there two nights but packed in so much. We did four drives in the Game reserve and got very close to a host of animals. I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone.

Minha estadia no Sanbona Wildlife Reserve foi simplesmente inesquecível! O hotel está localizado em uma reserva natural incrível, onde tive a chance de ver os "Big Five" em um cenário deslumbrante. A experiência de safári foi excepcional, e nosso guia foi fantástico – extremamente conhecedor, atencioso e sempre garantindo que tivéssemos a melhor experiência. O atendimento no hotel é de outro nível. Desde o momento da chegada, me senti extremamente bem-vinda e mimada. A equipe se dedicou de forma impecável para garantir uma estadia perfeita, com um cuidado constante e personalizado. O restaurante também foi uma experiência à parte. Os atendentes foram extremamente atenciosos. O serviço foi impecável, e a comida era deliciosa. O quarto era maravilhoso, com muito conforto e uma vista espetacular para a natureza ao redor – um verdadeiro refúgio. Fui para comemorar o meu aniversário, e a surpresa foi ainda mais especial: fui recebida com espumante e um bolo lindo de aniversário, um gesto que fez toda a diferença e me fez sentir muito especial. Não tenho palavras suficientes para descrever o cuidado e a dedicação de toda a equipe, bem como a qualidade das instalações – tudo superou minhas expectativas! Se você quer uma experiência única, com luxo, atendimento impecável e a oportunidade de vivenciar a natureza de uma maneira espetacular, o Sanbona é o destino perfeito.
