This property spans an impressive 650 acres of land, where wildlife frequently roams right up to the front of the villa, creating an unforgettable experience. During our morning game drive, we were thrilled to spot four giraffes, zebras, and a variety of other animals. The breathtaking scenery and the pristine condition of the property exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend this property for an exceptional stay immersed in nature.

My stay at Lilayi Lodge was amazing. The staff were outstanding, and the food was absolutely delicious. I’d give each room a 5-star rating, as everything was in immaculate condition. The lodge combines the luxury of a modern hotel with the calm and relaxation of a secluded retreat. I'm eagerly looking forward to my next visit!

Took us nearly an hour to get checked in, as our room wasn't ready at check in time. Also took nearly an hour for our breakfast orders to be served. The lodge is lovely, but service needs serious work.

It was excellent ! It is a hotel made of typical African huts in a game reserve. Absolutely a marvelous experience amidst nature ! Great friendly service. The food was excellent. But there is one thing they really need to improve: the restaurant closes 9 pm with last orders 8:30 pm, and this is ludicrous. My first day I didn’t manage to be back in time so pre-ordered food, which was served on the veranda of my very beautifully, but was cold by the time I got there. My second and third day I had to pre-order at the last minute (lot of stress) while rushing. I really think the restaurant should be opened until 11 pm at the very least — giving people the option to have a more relaxed holiday and enjoy the African nights as much as the day.

We really enjoyed our stay at Lilayi Lodge. The room was quite tidy and comfortable. The food at the restaurant was delicious. Unfortunately, the lodge must have had some sort of staffing shortages while we were there because we had to wait 2 and a half hours to check in to our room, even though we had arrived after 2pm. We also had to wait a long time for service at the bar and restaurant. We've been there before and not had trouble, so I am assuming it was just a short staffed weekend. The grounds are great for kids - with a playground and walking trails.

Delightful lodge, so close to the city but totally peaceful and relaxing. Great food and fantastic staff. We stayed for two nights and they even made a delicious takeaway breakfast for us when we had to leave very early. Will definitely return!

Great food, good service by all staff. Loses some points for a lack of certain amenities usually associated with a 5-star hotel, (ladies shower cap, slippers, robes and not well stocked mini-bar). But overall we enjoyed our stay and thought it was a great escape from the city. Fully enjoyed and recommend the elephant sanctuary associated with the place.

I chose to stay at Lilayi Lodge primarily because of access to the baby elephant sanctuary but I found the lodgings and grounds to be so stunningly beautiful, the food superb and the staff so friendly and helpful that even if baby ellies aren’t one’s cup of tea, Lilayi will be.

Lilayi is a lovely and relaxing place. Staff were so friendly and attentive. The room and bathroom were clean and large with very comfortable beds. A lovely view from our veranda. Price wise, it was a little more expensive than we wanted to pay, but we could not fault anything. Thank you so much
