The Staff is amazing, they do what they can to make this the perfect holiday for you. We had the apartment with a private pool viewing towards the park, it was huge, well equipped and very clean. The day starts at 5 AM with waking up, first Game drive roughly from 5:30 til 8:30, breakfast at 9:00. Then you can have a bush walk or go to a hide&view place or just relax. At 14:30 lunch is served. 16:30 the evening game drive starts and you are back for dinner at 21:00. (This was in March, schedule changes based on sunrise/set) The food was excellent and plenty to eat. The game drives were the absolute highlight, we saw the big 5 and many more animals in just two days. The price is definitely great for what you are getting and also fair compared to other Lodges. We 100% staying at Naledi!

What a great stay! We were really satisfied by our stay. Absolutely highlights were the amazing location and the super friendly staff. The Lodge is located next to the river, which gives the opportunity to see a lot of animals. We saw for example some; crocodiles, hippos, babboons and elephants next to the river. Regarding the staff: super friendly, good organized and you feel directly welcome! Not unimportant, the lodge is clean and all needed facilities are there! We would definitely recommend to go here and will go back when we are in the surrounding.

All perfect. Concept ofa small lodge and trips in very small groups is specially attractive.. Guide Ishmael absolutely brilliant knowing how, where, and when to find the animals. By all means the experience (four nights) was worth it.

Our experience at Muweti was absolutely unforgettable. Mike and Laura were the kindest, most welcoming people who made our honeymoon feel so special. We made lifelong friends and were experienced nature like never before. Visits to lion families, elephants visiting us at the pool. We can’t wait to go back!

Everything exceeded my expectations, The reserve was phenomenal, the lodge and staff were great especially Leanne our game ranger. She made sure she found us the big five and much more in 2 days. The best lodge and reserve I've ever been to, we absolutely loved every minute of it.

    Amazing game drives given by Paul from Maninghi Lodge.

    Amazing game drives given by Paul from Maninghi Lodge. He is the most knowledgable guide we have ever had. His passion and love for the bush is infectious! We thoroughly enjoyed our drives with him, and he was a large part of what made our stay so great!
