The hosts were amazing. They made my family and I feel at home away from home. The food is delicious, the service is amazing and the rooms are quite comfortable. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We were there over Christmas and they went out of their way to make it special and memorable. I would highly recommend. Value for money for sure.

Very good

Overall it was a good experience!

1. Property is located at the Greater Kruger Area, vicinity of wild life. Could spot many animals including lion, elephants, buffaloes, hippos, kudus etc. 2. Rooms were beautifully designed and neatly maintained 3. Our tour guide was very sweet (Tian) 4. They specially arranged dinner in front of our tent house as a group to spent quality time together, we enjoyed it l! 5. They were protective about us not walking alone in the dark within the premises

1. Food was average, not much variety or options 2. More hospitality from some staff would be great as there was strict instructions (which is understandable in forest) but the tone of instruction and the way the messages were delivered sounded rude, when you are at leisure, you wont want that. 3. While having dinner, half way through, since it was time to wind up, staff took of the plates while eating which we felt could have been managed in a better way.

Wonderful lodge!

A really lovely lodge with not too many rooms and well laid out with plenty of space but still an easy walk to the main lodge building and pool area. Boma dinners every night, which was fun, and excellent food for all meals! We stayed in a tented room which was large, well equipped and with a great covered patio area. Staff were wonderful, and we had an excellent guide, Tiann, very knowledgeable and who took the time to explain things well, which made for great game drives!

The road into the lodge needs some improvement, bit rough in places, although I believe this is on the cards to be done soon.

Superb

Beautiful Baluleni

We had an amazing time at Baluleni. The staff were very kind and knowledgeable and went above and beyond. We went on two extra drives for free as they'd heard of a lion's whereabouts and so, we ran from our lunch and went straight out and saw her. The lioness walked right along the road, laid down near us and was doing a bit of animal spotting herself too - such an amazing sight. We went to Kruger after and had 15 cars trying to spot the back of a lion across a river, so this was truly magical as we were the only vehicle there too. We were also up close to elephants, giraffes, lots of birds and much more. The food was also amazing, I'm vegan and the lodge made me some delicious food while there and my friend really enjoyed her meals too. On the drive out the owner even took our suitcases in her car to help with the bumpy roads. A truly great stay.

Our tent was a little noisy flapping on the first night as the winds were stronger but only a minor point.

Baluleni Lodge is perfect because you can both relax in a lush environment and explore nature either with your own car in Kruger park or with the lodge's guide who is amazing.
