We stayed here as a family for 3 nights and the experience was one that will stay with us for the rest of our lives. The Lodge was magnificent with huge rooms containing every conceivable amenity. The beds were enormous and very comfortable and the meals - shared with all residents - were varied and excellent. The game drives were the best we have ever had in Africa - seeing the 'big 5' almost every time. On one occasion we saw 3 leopards in a tree with a hyena below and a lion suddenly climbing the same tree! The lodge is unfenced and one of the delights is seeing all manner of game strolling across the extensive lawns at all hours of the day. We would recommend Inyati without reservation.

If you want a fabulous bush experience in a lovely setting, then Inyati is it! Five stars for the staff, the game experience, the knowledge of the rangers and guides. Khimbini and Richard were a fabulous team who, on our three day visit, showed us lions mating, leopards feeding their young on an impala kill, cheetah, herd of cape buffalo, impalas, warthogs, giraffes, zebras, elephants and more. Our guides were so accommodating helping us to get good views for photography and always willing to answer our many questions. We were impressed with their kindness and knowledge.

The lodge is situated on a beautiful grassy bluff overlooking the watering hole for loads of animals who make a regular appearance on the grounds. One afternoon I ventured near the pool and photographed elephants on the a few yards away!

The room (executive) was spacious and full of nice amenities. Though not a five star in decor and finishes, a close runner up and a tremendous value. This room allowed us a private ranger and vehicle, which was great for two couples.

The food was plentiful and safe to eat. The breakfasts with home made rolls were superb. The afternoon tea had delicious snacks, hors d'oevres, fresh and beautifully displayed. Dinner was the least interesting but filling which were served on the grounds or by a campfire in the Boma.

We found many take home items at fair prices in the small gift shop on the property....many of which were made by village dwellers nearby.

Fellow travelers were mainly from Europe and easy to engage in conversation. A fabulous experience we will never forget! The OKoons, Louisville, Kentucky

My reviews tend to be on the lengthy side, however, (for once) I am at a loss for words. Inyati so delivered the safari experience we (my wife, friend and me) sought that our trip still dominates group conversations more than three months later. The staff was overly-friendly and the shareholders (who arrived for meetings during our stay) were gracious, down-to-earth and engaging. We came to South Africa for the World Cup, which was fantastic, but all the games' festivities could not complete with our trip to Sabi Sands and the hospitality of Inyati. It's a magical place.
