Nyati is beautiful, spacious, friendly, efficient and considerate of special dietary concerns. We stayed in Rhino Tents which were luxurious and comfortable. Staff went out of their way to make our experience amazing. Wildlife was everywhere but we felt safe on the resort and on safari. It was an experience of a lifetime!!

Unforgettable Experience

Everything at Nyati Safari Lodge was absolutely wonderful. The rooms were spotless and incredibly comfortable – ours was located right in front of the river, and on the very first day we had elephants, crocodiles, and other wildlife right in front of us. It was like living in a nature documentary!

The meals and drinks were delicious! The entire staff was incredibly attentive, making us feel welcome and taken care of every step of the way.

The highlight of our stay was definitely the game drives. Kenneth, Peter, Pride, and Freja went above and beyond, always asking which animals we wanted to see and doing everything they could to make it happen. Each game drive ended with either a morning coffee or a sunset drink, always paired with a breathtaking view of the reserve.

I truly can’t wait to go back!

We had a great experience at Nyati Safari Lodge, from check-in to check-out. We stayed for six days and had a wonderful time. All the staff were friendly and polite, and the game drives were both knowledgeable and enjoyable. We did four game drives with Peter, which were exciting adventures as we searched for animals. Also, Lux and Henry were great and knowledgeable. The food was delicious, and everything was well-organized.
There are a few areas that could use some attention and improvement:
-The outdoor restaurant was difficult to enjoy during our stay because of windy and cool weather. It would be helpful if they provided heaters for such conditions.
-During the buffet, I noticed some guests refilling their plates without using new ones, which could pose a hygiene risk, especially since many guests were coughing and sneezing.
-It would be great if they offered hot drinks like cappuccinos or lattes. When I asked if I could buy one, I was told they didn’t have any, though a coffee machine could easily provide this option.
Overall, I highly recommend Nyati Safari Lodge to anyone seeking adventure along with a luxury stay.

Loved the Nyati Safari Lodge!!!!

My 30 year old daughter and I had an amazing three days at the Nyati Lodge, went on 6 game drives, saw all kinds of animals and were able to take the time to observe them in their natural habitat. The guides were extremely knowledgeable about the area, the animals and the flora and lodge is beautiful, well-equipped and very well organized. The staff were also extremely friendly and helpful and the food was excellent.
We flew into Hoedspruit and the lodge arranged transport to and from the airport. We would unequivocally recommend Nyati as a place for a true African safari experience.

Hotel pode ser no maximo um 3 estrelas. Região complicada para quem quer ver o big 5! Tem que buscar muito os animais e alguns rangers parecem desconhecer.

Comida somente na hora que o hotel oferece e bem padrão.

Além disso, devido à presença grande de um grupo de Dinamarqueses (e dono do hotel ser um) muitas explicações eram dadas no idioma deles (somente) e com bandeiras do país. Um pouco desreispeitoso com um numero grande de Brasileiros presentes.

African Safari

Expected much more for the price paid. Food average. Only saw two of big five over three day period. Some game rangers very inexperienced.

Idyllic place, wonderful experience

Nyatti went above and beyond all around for us. We were on our honeymoon and were treated to an amazing welcome in the form of gifts and decorative roses. The staff were incredible, especially the guides - Azequiel was our regular game driver and was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and able to seek out the animals at will. We saw two lions up close on our first trip - amazing!! The food was also incredible as was our lodgings. Thank you Nyatti!! Hope to be back soon.

Horrible stay! I'd never go back there and would recommend anyone with ANY special requirements to not go there either. Despite of several emails with the staff before arrival telling them of my dietary requirements, I was brought out all meals with either Pork (which I don't eat as my religious belief) or onions (which I am severely allergic to). It wasn't once, it was every single meal for the night I stayed there. To add to that, after a long day at the game drive, when I got to my room, the shower in the room did not have any hot water. My husband and I spent almost an hour and a half waiting for someone to come fix it and when we finally got tired of waiting (at 10pm), we asked them to just come in the morning when we were on our early morning 5am game drive. Being the inconsiderate staff and management they are, someone knocked at our door at 11:35 pm to come in and fix it. We had made sure to call them and tell them that we're sleeping so make sure nobody comes, they didn't care. The guys kept knocking until we woke up and opened the door. They came in and out several times until they finally fixed it at 1am. We finally slept at 1:30am and woke up at 4:30 am for the game drive. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!!

Foi tudo perfeito na nossa hospedagem! O lodge é incrível, com funcionários atenciosos. Os guias são experientes e tivemos uma experiência mt boa no local. As refeições também foram ótimas, com influências africanas.

De merveilleux safari avec des rangers au top, un établissement fantastiquement bien placé pour voir des animaux entre deux games du lodge, du restaurant, de la piscine ! Cela ne s'arrête jamais. Les lodges sont ultra confortables.
En revanche il devrait changer d'ERP comptable car les problèmes de facturation cela entachent les vacances, même si tout fini par être résolu à la fin.

Absolutamente impecável em todos os quesitos, desde a recepção no aeroporto até os safaris, o quarto, o atendimento e as refeições.

O transfer do aeroporto para o hotel tem um preço justo, e quem me buscou ja era muito simpático.

Chegando na hospedagem, a experiência foi completamente incrível. Quarto espaçoso, confortável, novo, bem cuidado e com ítens de higiene de ótima qualidade. A propriedade pensa em cada detalhe que fazem a diferença para um hotel deste nível, até nas toalhas em formato de elefantes em cima da cama e na organização do quarto para dormir.

Os safaris são ótimos, em carros confortáveis e os guias sempre dispostos a buscarem os animais. Já no primeiro safari consegui ver os big 5, mas não há tantas variações de espécies além dos big 5 nas redondezas. No rio em frente ao hotel é possível ver vários animais bebendo agua.

As refeições são ótimas, completas e deliciosas. E a seleção de vinhos também é espetacular.

Todos os atendentes, sem exceção, são simpáticos, educados e prestativos.

Experiência fantástica. Voltaria mil vezes. Parabéns a toda a equipe Nyati por pensar em cada detalhe e fazer a experiência ser tão agradável em todos os aspectos.

Otimo

O hotel é otimo. Porem, no local onde ele fica tem inúmeras outras opcoes que tambem sao otimas por um preco menor.
Mas o local é otimo, com 2 safaris por dia e tudo incluso em termos de alimentacao.
