A recent Trip Advisor review by American guest Cathy W.
"A Truly Unforgettable Safari Experience at Ezulwini!!!
Wonderful experience — highly recommend. I stayed at Ezulwini River Lodge for three nights and Ezulwini Billy’s Lodge for three nights, and the entire experience was outstanding. From the moment we began planning the trip, the staff was responsive, helpful, and attentive to every question or concern. They also recommended and arranged two excursions outside of the safari experience, including round-trip airport transportation.
When we arrived, we were greeted with a warm welcome. The team was consistently professional, kind, and welcoming, creating a genuine family atmosphere. The accommodations were upscale safari chic, which I loved. The lodge felt comfortable and relaxed, almost like a vacation home, and I enjoyed exploring the property outside of the game drives.
The game drives were truly incredible. By the third day, we had already seen all of the Big Five. The reserve’s intimate setting made the experience feel personal and uncrowded, allowing us to fully appreciate the property, staff, scenery, and wildlife. Its premier location near the river, along with the off-road game drives, provided excellent opportunities for spotting and tracking animals, as well as capturing memorable photos.
The food was fantastic, with everything thoughtfully prepared from scratch, including the soaps in the bathrooms. This smaller game reserve is ideal for anyone seeking a more intimate and memorable safari experience, similar to having a private estate/ vacation home.
I am especially grateful to Ang, Craig, Knox, Glory, Ashley, Hector, Richard, Frans, Conrad, Sue, and the entire team for their hard work, kindness, and hospitality. I look forward to returning with my family and would highly recommend Ezulwini to anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind safari experience they will remember for years to come."
Thank you Cathy for sharing your experience with us.
