"We stayed one night with our children ages 8 and 10. Our children thought Aquila was magical and thoroughly enjoyed the facilities and their time with the animals. Food was good with plenty of variety and very friendly waiting and serving staff. All in all a great experience however a few improvements can be made:
1) There were a lot of flies at the lunchtime buffet which were enjoying the uncovered cakes and puddings. Please cover the food to minimise this.
2) Blankets should be provided on the morning safaris.
3) Safari guests should be requested to turn off/disable bleeping/shutter noises on their camera and electronic equipment. There are lots of senses used to enjoy the African bush including listening to birds, animals communicating with one another and the sounds of elephants treading the earth. Electronic sounds completely ruin this!
4) The pool water is extremely cold! Any chance of getting some heating?"
