Nedile Lodge was an amazing stay. As a solo female, I felt safe at all times. The safari rides were fantastic, and our guide, Barend, was interesting and knowledgeable. I saw so many animals! The food was first class, and bountiful. The rooms are stunning. There is a soaker tub that overlooks the reserve. I highly recommend this lodge.
Fabulous stay! This boutique hotel is intimate with only 10 guest max so the service is very personalized and very friendly, the space is gorgeous, food is beyond delicious and the game drives were spectacular. This was the best part kf our whole trip in south Africa and we look forward to returning. We were there on our honeymoon and it felt like paradise.
Just magical.
The environment, wildlife but first of all the hospitality of the Nedile staff.
It is a special place where you feel if you where the only ones on the planet.
Just superb.
Nedile lodge was an amazing experience. The lodge is beautiful and in a stunning setting. So peaceful and tranquil that we wished we had booked to stay longer. John and Dominique are wonderful hosts and the food is delicious. The game drives were fantastic. What John doesn’t know probably isn’t worth knowing. He has so much patience and a real understanding of the animals that we always managed to get close to them when others didn’t. We would definitely recommend this place to everyone

Could have been better
No TV in the rooms itself, No phone for room service, must use your own mobile to contact the front desk if in need of anything as well as when you need to attend dinner because you are not aloud to walk alone and unattended.
But in-spite of it all, the service was really good with regards to the pic-up and drop-off and the African ladies that provided such warm welcoming and high quality service.

Excellent séjour au Nedile Lodge. Vaut vraiment le détour. Lodge luxueux et bien entretenu. Les ''game drive'' sont incroyables, nous avons vu beaucoup plus d'animaux que nous nous imaginions pouvoir en observer. Notre ranger, Michael, était toujours motivé et intéressant. Les hôtes sont charmants et accueillants, le service est impeccable. La nourriture est excellente.Parfaite alternative au Kruger pour ceux qui n'ont pas le temps de s'y rendre ou préfèrent un endroit sans risque de malaria.

Sehr schöne Lodge im Welgevonden Game Reserve mit sehr freundlichen aufmerksamen Gastgebern und gutem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Neben vielen Impalas und Gnus ist die Anzahl an Nashörnern im Park beeindruckend, der aber auch mit Löwen, Geparden, Leoparden,Elefanten und vielen anderen Tieren aufwarten kann. Auch angenehm: das Gebiet ist malariefrei.

Fantastische lodge op een schitterende lokatie. Kamers zijn groot en mooi, uitzicht is fantastisch en buiten balkon is zeer prive. Gastvrijheid is uitmuntend, heerlijk eten en prima faciliteiten (oa zwembad met uitizicht op rondlopende olifanten). Gamedrives zijn zeer goed, de driver is een experr!
