The Sarova Taita Hills is fine but the Salt Lick, also in the Sarova chain, is 7km away and is a better hotel in every way. For some reason the Salt Lick was also cheaper on a resident rate. More

Lovely peaceful setting – rooms looked out over the reserve and animal watering hole which was just the other side of the swimming pool. Comfy room, with extra pillows, safe, tea and coffee making facilities, though had to get a kettle from reception. Free tea and coffee was provided all day in the hotel foyer. Good shop with postcards, stamps,... More

We only stayed one night at this hotel and to be honest that was enough. The room we were given was a triple and had a view of a tree and the back area of the hotel, lots of crashing bottles and bins. The toilet didn't work and we had to get a guy to fix it twice, the bath... More

Whilst on a three day Safari we stayed in this lodge for 1 night. The only negative I can say was that the facilities are a little dated and we had to tell reception that our toilet was broken a couple of times before getting it fixed but the rest of our experience was great. The lodge accommodated three girls... More

I've seen this lodge listed as 3*, but consider ourselves fairly well travelled and would classify it as 4* personally. We had room 101 with a great view of the waterhole, elephants visiting all through the day/evening, along with 'deer', cranes etc. Room spacious and very clean, balcony with mesh door so you could have it open but still keep...

The poorer cousin of others in it's group, this is in need of a refurb but still has a little retro appeal. Stuck in the 70's!! We arrived for dinner and left after breakfast so didn't get much chance to enjoy the pool or the grounds etc.... other than being glued to the watering hole at the foot of the... More

We stayed here on the first 2 nights of our safari trip, and had a comfortable stay, with fairly good food. The main reason to stay was of course the animals, and the lodge has its own reserve, which gives it more of a private feel than some others and allows you a bit of peace when you are out... More

We stayed here on our last night of the safari and we found it to be a bit disappointing compared with the lodges we had stayed at as this felt more like a hotel rather than a safari lodge. The rooms were clean and satisfactorily equipped but the shower didn't work and dribbled out hot water. We cannot fault the... More
