Our stay there wasn't long enough. We should have stayed longer. They were so welcoming and made us feel very special. If only we had known about all that the lodge had to offer we would have booked for way more than one night.... Next time we will. ... and we will be back.

BRW Lodge is such a special place to stay. Its location by the river oozes calmness and the accommodation and food is fabulous. However the personal touch from Cynthia and the team really made us feel at home. Topped off with a guided walk in the reserve to see the giraffes. Thank you!

This, I think, our fourth visit to the Blyde River Wilderness Lodge. We enjoy the quiet, relaxed ambience, dinner was lovely and the staff friendly and obliging. We enjoyed meeting Cherie-Lee and, as always Cynthia went the extra mile. The beds are super-comfortable.

Note negative: avevo già letto che la strada per raggiungerlo era problematica, ma l'ho trovata peggio del previsto, sottostimata nella distanza e nelle condizioni del terreno. 6km di sterrato prima di arrivare a un primo cancello di sicurezza, almeno 2km su altro sterrato e un altro cancello, tutto a passo d'uomo (per garantire la sicureza e l'incolumità degli animali che girano liberi nel Lodge). Siamo arrivati con il buio, intorno alle 19, perchè abbiamo avuto dei prolemi di lavori in corso con la strada. Alla Reception ci hanno accolto in maniera molto fredda, nonostante avessi avvertito via whatsapp dell'orario di arrivo, dovuto alla problematica della strada. Avevo prenotato via mail la cena, all'accoglienza ci hanno detto di recarci subito al ristorante perchè gli altri ospiti stavano già mangiando (? quindi?) e la cucina avrebbe chiuso alle 21 (!). Nemmeno il tempo di fare una doccia, giusto lasciare i bagagli in stanza. Via mail, avevo anche segnalato che io e mio marito avremmo preso il menu completo (starter, main course e dessert), mentre per i bambini bastava uno starter e il dolce. Volevano portare il menu completo anche a loro, con evidente spreco di cibo - per fortuna, alla fine hanno servito solo lo starter. A colazione, zero sorrisi delle cameriere, una difficoltà incredibile per chiedere del latte caldo per me e i bambini, sembrava stessi chiedendo la luna... Comunque mi sento di dare 4 stelle all'alloggio. Immerso completamente nella natura, la cena al ristorante è stata deliziosa (cara per gli standard sudafricani: due menù completi, 2 starter, vino, acqua: corrispondente di 53€), pavoni liberi, piante di mandarini ovunque, una sistemazione (Owl House con 2 camere da letto e cucina) stile capanna ma semplicemente da WOW.

Plusieurs lodges espacés dans un très joli jardin, au bord d’une rivière habitée par des hippopotames et crocodiles. Une très belle expérience, l’établissement dispose d’une mini réserve avec des girafes, zèbres et autres animaux que vous devez traverser en voiture avant arriver au lodge. Petit déjeuner et dîner possible (menu unique). Très copieux. Par contre, prévenez l’établissement si vous ne voulez pas dîner sur place, sinon ils vous feront payer le dîner complet même si vous ne prenez que l’entrée. C’est une pratique assez inhabituelle pour des européens..

Peaceful and wildlife a**osphere...very cosy rooms (we stayed in the roundavells) very good food and nice staff. We had a lovely stay we did panorama route to visit the blyde river canyon sites...it is a bit far from there around 1 hour drive to the first step of the panorama route. I recommend this place if you don't mind being a bit remote

Wonderful staff, exceptional remote location on Blyde River, excellent food! Beautiful grounds, swimming pool and comfortable room. Perfect spot for a base to explore Canyon and area after Kruger.

We stayed here for 3 nights and loved every minute of it. The property is beautiful, set right on a river with hippos. There are peacocks that roam around, as well as zebra, ostrich and giraffe. The food was absolutely incredible, and the staff was beyond helpful and friendly. They even helped us set up a fire in the fire pit outside our room one night. I would highly recommend this lodge to anyone staying in the Blyde River Canyon area.
