We stayed two nights at Kapama main lodge in August. It was our first experience in a Game reserve and we really loved it. We booked through their website and it doesn’t do justice to the place, we were really impressed on arriving. The lodge is really beautiful; the decoration, the setting, the view, it has the perfect level of... more

We stayed there for 4 nights and found the service very poor: At the restaurant: At breakfast, on 2 mornings, we had to wait for plates. Being a family of 5 persons, it was quite impossible to have breakfast outside because the personnel of the restaurant did not want to prepare the large rectangular table outside.... so that we had... more

Stayed at Kapama Main Lodge June 2008, for two nights. It's five star, but I felt the service did not have the level of enthusiasm and professionalism we found in other lodges, many with fewer stars. (We visited seven lodges) I have marked it down here, because it did not rate as it should overall, although the experience of the... more

Great place. We came from another property, also 5 star, and were amazed at the difference. The food was very good and you order from a set menu (no buffet here). The game drives were very good. more

We stayed in Kapama River Lodge and we loved the place. The safari drives run by Rohan were amazing. Within the first two drives he managed to let us see the big 5, as well as Kudu, Giraffe, Warthog, Hippo, Nyala, Bushbuck, etc... too many to mention. The explanations given on their way of life, their habits and how they... more

We stayed at Kapama Main Lodge for a Week in June and loved it so much we're going back in December! I've recommended the lodge to several friends here in states because of the incredible game-viewing, unbelievable dining experiences (I gained 5 lbs!) and hospitality. It is certainly on a par with Ritz-Carlton or Four Seasons service and dining. Can't... more

For the price tag and the star rating we found Kapama to be a bit disappointing. We enjoyed the friendly staff but were disappointed in the small amount of game for viewing. Having other experiences in the Kruger Park we felt this was just a step above a glorified zoo. Our guides were working hard but we just saw the... more

We really enjoyed Kapama. Very friendly people making you feel right at home. The lodge is run by a excellent team. The game viewing was also very good, our game ranger drove us right to the sights, and we came so close I could touch the elephant. The food was also very good, we had a set menu every night... more

Having stayed at Nyala House on the Kapama private game reserve we thought things couldn't get better. However this year we returned and stayed at Kapama Lodge and it was just incredible. The service was outstanding and the food and hospitality six star. The accomodation wonderful and luxurious. All the staff are there to help and look after your every... more
