An Unforgettable Safari Experience!

Liked:We had an amazing stay at Vuyani! The entire staff was incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive, and our villa was beautiful. A special shoutout to David and Direct, who led our game drives. Both were friendly, knowledgeable, and truly went above and beyond to find the animals and make every drive memorable. And a big thank you to Benji for those cheerful 5:30 AM wake-up calls to get us ready for our morning drives! 😊 The food was also exceptional—Willie and the entire kitchen team did a fantastic job throughout our stay. From the hospitality to the game drives, food, and beautiful accommodation, Vuyani gave us such a memorable safari experience. Highly recommend!

Incredible - a must visit

Liked:Everything about this hotel was exceptional. Every member of staff was incredibly attentive and made every single guest feel valued and welcomed. It really did feel like a personal experience with the porter taking you to and from your room during the dark, the chefs presenting their food and asking for your thoughts and your room was prepared for your return for each morning and evening safari and the reception staff organising your trips. Each meal was freshly prepared be the chefs and there was a great variety of food on offer. Our game driver Philip was very knowledgeable of the animals and tried his best to ensure we saw a range of animals during our stay. I will be recommending Vuyani to everyone.

Disliked:Only minor - you can only shower in the afternoon during the winter months due to the cold. However, the outdoor showers feel very authentic!
