Summary: Our house with a private pool was just amazing

Helen Sep 25, 2025 03:46:38 PM

Summary: Gondwana offers a fantastic experience for anyone looking for a short Safari within the confines of a private game concession. There is a diverse array of animals to view in amongst beautiful scenery despite being close to Mossel Bay. Our accommodation went way beyond our expectations - a huge 3 bedroom lodge all to ourselves. We loved the 15+ minute self drive to get there! The food at Gondwana is nothing like you get on a typical safari - it’s more like a 5* hotel experience with so much choice (take aways available!). In summary we had an excellent experience

Sebastian May 17, 2025 09:46:54 PM

Summary: We stayed at Gondwana Game Reserve three nights at Lehele Villas....and it was GREAT. In particular our guide, we luckily got assigned, Sonny, made all game drivers special. No Rushy No Hurry, Patience, and endless knowledge sharing ! Thank You Sonny !!!!!!! ...and of course the entire team makes it so easily to feel welcomed and cared.

Summary: Experience was great, our guide Anita was fantastic.

Thomas Mar 2, 2025 10:35:04 PM

Summary: Simply wonderful. We had an amazing guide, Greg (“The Postman”, because he always delivered!) who answered all our questions knowledgeably. He was simply exceptional and made our stay! A beautiful reserve, with many beautiful species. We had the three bedroom Lehele Villa and it was perfectly clean, and cleaned twice a day. We didn’t join for lunch but the breakfast and dinner menus had excellent vegan options. We particularly enjoyed the Vegan Eggs Florentine. Thank you so much, would love to visit again.

Tanja Jul 31, 2023 04:38:03 PM

Summary: World Class place, front of house top drawer and the Guide we had Clavin was a perfect host - the variation of animals was stunning, the Lodge we had was out of a postcard movie BUT some very easy things would make it a 12/10 experience - we waited ridiculously for a drink when arriving and even longer for food - seldom have i paid so much for accommodation to be so so so so cold in the Lodge....just could not get it warm and people stayed in bed with a blanket on - insane and meant we did nto utilise the wonderful space on offer

Waka Jul 14, 2023 12:53:29 AM

Summary: Warm and kind hospitality, natural surrounded with nice air and animals and plants, so relaxed, we think about our one earth. Thank you very much!! One thing that we felt difficult was that everyday hot water was not enough and we, including small children were really cold as we visited in winter; if it were summer, maybe no problem.
