We really enjoyed our stay at the Hide and it is truly an amazing luxury camp. Because it is situated with direct views to a waterhole, we didn't even have to be on game drive to see plenty of wildlife - it seemed like a there was a steady stream of animals drinking from it throughout the day. The tents... More

We had a wonderful time observing animals at The Hide. The service (very british) is amazing. The guides have a true knowledge of animals, trees, birds and are always very happy sharing it with the guests. The real advantage of going to The Hide is that you wont see anybody except the Hide's guests observing animal in Hwange park. A... More

Our stay in March 2012 could not have been any better on this our second safari and first in Zimbabwe where I highly recommend an experience at the Hide. The three optional drives/ walks per day were all varied; all the guides were friendly, informative and fun to learn from where we could have numerous discussions on all forms of... More

Just returned from 4 nights at the Hide having had a fantastic time. We were beautifully looked after with real attention to detail. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable both on the game walks and game drives and we saw far more than expected considering it was then the end of the rainy season. Each day ending with sundowners in a... More

Thank you to the management & staff for 2 fantastic nights/ days at The Hide. Amazing location on the edge of the Hwange game reserve - the only down side being the train tracks & periodic noises. Beautiful rooms - hot baths & showers with a view! Special thanks to Nicholas our own "personal guide" who made our walks &... More

Just returned from 3 days at the Hide. The experience was very good, but there are one or two slight hiccups that need to be ironed out. What was great: The food was very good and tasty (never felt let down), the service excellent- always a smiling face around to help you. The location was amazing, overlooking a waterhole. The...

I traveled with my sister and her family (3) and my teenage son. We had two separate luxury safari tents. Some game preserves could be viewed almost like a theme park with animals making their regular appearances. The Hide offers a true safari experience. We saw a fair amount of wild life but not as much if you were to... More

This is my favorite hotel in Southern Africa. I loved the remoteness of it and having your own "cabin." It is a very romantic hotel, even though there were 2 families with children there during our stay. Other than meals, you can spend as much time alone as you would like. There are activities all day (safaris) and you can... More
