Everything was perfect, the accommodation, the staff, the food, the game drives, the rangers, and just when you think it can get no better they surprise you with a little something extra, in our case a top quality bush breakfast!Mike & Tania were fabulous hosts & it was if their staff were family members. They all worked well together & could not have been more welcoming or friendly. We were spoilt with the game drives seeing all of the big 5 extremely close up within the first 16 hours of our arrival at the lodge. Mike was also our ranger with Mr T and their knowledge & obvious love of the animals added to the whole experience. Mike was also great with our 17 year old son treating him to a bush walk where they encountered Elephant, buffalo & Lion all on foot. A truely memorable holiday. read less

The game drives were totally off the hook and far more productive than I ever dreamed. My driver Freedom and his spotter Frank were able to find us a pack of lions feeding ferociously on a overnight buffalo kill, a leopard caring her cub to an impala kill, two cheetahs in plain site only 20 feet away, a pair of wild dogs with 12 puppies, a herd of elephants with babies and too much more to even count. All up close and personal. All that and I didn't even mention the amazing food, rooms and vibe of this small but amazing resort. Once in a lifetime experience... read less

All the staff including Pride, showed amazing hospitality and our guides, Joe and Delta, while on our drives, provided more wow moments then we can count. Joe’s knowledge about the animals, the area around camp and the tracks was fascinating. The food was some of the best we have ever had on our many international travels. We can’t say enough about our experience. Counting the days till we can go back! read less

Every detail has been carefully considered- to the interior of the spacious accommodations to the natural elements of design throughout the public areas, to the just-right service in the dining area. The staff was very competent, but also caring and genuinely interested in our experience. Our butler, Kedris, was a delight, as was every other individual we came in contact with - from the welcome home committee after each game drive, to the chef, to the room attendant and the gentleman who escorted us to our room safely after dinner. Naturally, the highlight of the trip was the game drives. I traveled with my sister, and we found our guide (Rudy) and tracker (Jordan) to be great fun and genuinely interested in our experience. They are also incredibly knowledgeable. Rudy provided excellent play-by-play and animal kingdom factoids from A-Z as Jordan snuffed out the animals from his perch at the front of the Land Cruiser. I actually felt that each time we found a wild creature, they were as excited as we were; they took all the time we needed to sit back and enjoy the beauty of the moment. They also seemed to sincerely appreciate questions from guests, and provided remarkable insights that made the trip all the more interesting. We were in Southern Africa for two and a half weeks, and I would say that our stay at Seseka was the highlight of our journey. I will never forget it, and who knows, maybe I'll be back someday. read less

I think we were very luck to have Tendai and Service spend 4 days with us in Sabi Sands. We tracked leopards and lions during our time together and walked through the bush to find giraffes early in the morning. We found white rhinos who were incredible to watch up close and even heard a male lion call out to his pride while sitting on top of a termite mound. This lodge is the best. You honestly won’t want to leave and if you are lucky enough to spend your time with Tendai and Service then you likely will come back and visit again which is what we might need to do in the very near future! read less
