We are a retired couple travelling from Zambia through Botswana to South Africa and I am happy that we found this online. Its all we needed, clean room, comfortable bed, hot shower and staff assisted us in ordering takeaways as we arrived too late to order dinner. I would recommend this establishment

Amazing little guesthouse with super friendly staff and the cutest dogs and cat! We really loved our time there and want to come back. The 6-hour safari was perfect, and so was the river cruise safari. We spotted so many animals. We also used the daytrip option to Victoria Falls and it all went smoothly. The only things that could've made it better are an electric gate (so you don't need someone to open it for you), mosquito nets on the beds, and an option to do a daytrip to Livingstone (because the visa and park fees in Zambia are much lower than in Zimbabwe). A great place and wholeheartedly recommend! Thanks guys :)

Friendly owners and staff, free daily lunchtime shuttle to Choppies, helpful with organising tours, the pap with chicken stew was delicious. Slightly isolated location, but cab rides are easily organised (self-drive easy too).

The property was very nice and I really felt they took care of you. The place is not a palace by any means but it is good if you want a place to stay and meet some great people. Close to town but far away enough from all the traffic

All in all very nice. You must see it in the light of being a packpackers. Don't expect a 5 star hotel. Everything was very nice and comfortable. Staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms clean. Small things wrong, e.g. basin tap was no good. Our one LED bulb got 'replaced' with a cheap copy. Out room was very noisy at times due to thin ceiling above us. We will make use of them again.
