If you are looking for a small intimate safari experience then this is the place for you. The accommodations are lovely and the staff quite personable and attentive to all your needs. With a maximum of 10 guests at a time you will get to know your fellow lodgers very well, especially at 6 am on your morning safari drive.... More

My wife and I booked five nights at Vuyani Lodge for our honeymoon after seeing the lodge advertised on Jetsetter. Simpy put, we could not have been happier with our (first) safari experience. As the title indicates, the staff made what would have been a good experience into the trip of a lifetime. We could not have asked for a... More

We just returned from a seven night stay at Vuyani Lodge. What an amazing experience! We enjoyed frst rate accommodations that were spotless, attentive staff, excellent meals, and of course, the wildlife. Craig has put together a fantastic staff that were friendly, knowledgeable and always ready to please the guests. Part of the draw for us was the intimate boutique-... More

Our recent stay at Vuyani Lodge more than fulfilled our hopes and expectations. There was nothing about it which we would have changed. The staff were most helpful and friendly at all times, the food was exceptional, the rooms and facilities top class. It is probably unfair to single out one person who ‘made’ our holiday but we would have... More

We stayed six nights at Vuyani commencing May 20th. We booked this location as all reviews on all sites were so positive. The reviews were spot on. I cannot say a negative word nor suggest improvement on any aspect of our trip. Our room was huge with a mosquito netted king size bed in the centre and surrounded by amenities... More

My wife and I took our honeymoon to South Africa's best Lodge Vuyani!! The staff was better than our stays at the Ritz and the food was hands down 5 stars. The words NO never came out of anyone’s mouth. Pierre was unbelievable and made sure we saw the big five! His sense of humor and knowledge of everything made... More

Vuyani was a terrific experience due to the fantastic staff, and of course the game. I stayed 8 nights as a single traveler. The staff was professional and kind with a "can do attitude ' which I found refreshing. The food is delicious, and interesting. Rooms are quiet the beds are good , down pillows ,everything is spotlessly clean, which... More

No photo in the world can capture the feeling of a trip to Vuyani nor words describe its heart beat. I expected dusty heat and flickering glimpses of animals (mostly retreating in the distance). I was pretty sure of smiling faces and good catering in an environment of establishment luxury. In short, I anticipated the usual 'quality' holiday But what... More

We were lucky enough to spend 6 nights at Vuyani Safari Lodge in April/May 2013 and we loved every moment. We were waited on hand & foot by the amazing staff - nothing was too much trouble. We loved our time spent with Mike our guide (he seemed to be stuck with us for most of our outings) - he... More
