Well where do we start.. .. we started planning our trip to South Africa about a year ago, and shopped around a lot to see what was on offer from different lodges around the area, let’s just say as soon as we came in contact with Annie (the owner) from Kingfisher Creek we just knew that this was the right choice to make, her break down and customer service towards planning our trip to full fill our dreams and expectations was exactly what we was looking for, so we already had a idea that we were going to enjoy ourselves here, so we decided to book for a 10 night stay! We arrived at hoedspruit airport and was greeted by Betty who was warm and friendly. Betty drove us to the lodge providing information on the way about what activities we will be doing and about the area. We were even greeted by 2 giraffes pulling into the lodge which kickstarted our safari excitement! We were blown away with the lodge, the welcoming from Annie and her staff, the facilities and just the feel that the whole place had to it. The rooms are just perfect. We stayed in the Malachite Tent which is on a high deck overlooking the African bush. The bed and pillows were so comfortable, the outside shower was amazing, To be surrounded by wildlife sounds and brilliant views of the sunset! A few nights we were sitting on our balcony after dinner and could hear hyenas calling in the distance. I mean, it doesn’t get much better than that! The rooms are equipped with everything and more needed for a comfortable stay, the pool and deck area were beautiful and the bar was stocked with a huge variety of drinks, beers, cider, wines and spirits as well a large selection of soft drinks to cater for everyone’s favourite tipple, and what better place to have a drink than to be sitting overlooking the wildlife and listening to the sounds of the roaming animals, we were even joined by some giraffes and Nyala a few times during our stay whilst relaxing and having a drink, there really is no experience like it. As the days went on in our stay we started to realise this lodge isn’t just accomodation to put your head down after a day of safari or activities, it was actually a home away from home, and added so much more to our experience, that’s all down to the kindness of Annie and her staff, they really do go above and beyond to make your stay the best it can be. The food was exceptional, and you could tell how much time and effort goes into creating the courses, which are all presented beautifully and taste even better than they look! We had a few changes we wanted to make to our itinerary which Annie dealt with efficiently to ensure we got the most of what we wanted. All tours and activities we done were amazing including full day Kruger, blue canyon safari, panorama tour, guernsey bush walks and that is just to name a few! We followed kingfisher creek on instagram and their bio quotes ‘Come as a guest, leave as a friend’ this couldn’t have any more truth to it and we truly have left as frien
