Great stay in the safari tent. Clean, comfortable, and a really easy way to enjoy camping without the hassle. The campsite was well kept with a nice, relaxed vibe. Would happily stay again.

Do not book the Studio room! Upgrade to the Villa or don’t stay here. The Studio rooms are barely bigger than a prison cell and are nowhere near 5 star hotel quality. The property is neat and the staff are so nice. Just don’t book the Studio rooms.
