It was my first time in a safari tent and I love it. It was an amazing experience. Friendly staff. The food was delicious. The stay made an effort to make gluten-free food for me. Thank you to all the admin and cooking staff The game drives were mazing! We were able to see the big five. Thank you to our Ranger and Tracker, Evans and Sondy. The location is perfect.

Karongwe Portfolio - Becks Safari Lodge, hotel in Karongwe Game Reserve

Overlooking the Makhutsi River, Karongwe Portfolio - Becks Safari Lodge is located in the Karongwe Game Reserve. The lodge boasts an outdoor pool, spa and on-site restaurant.

We simply loved this lodge and our stay here!😍 We actually liked it so much that we extended it by another night. The rooms are beautiful with direct views onto the river where you can spot different animals walking by. But the best thing about this lodge is the people who work here! First and foremost, Johan and his wife Adelina, who are the managers - they are around 24/7 for any queries you might have. They made sure that we felt welcome at all times and that we were enjoying our stay to the fullest! To us, it really did feel like a home away from home! 🙏The rest of the staff are also really nice and we especially loved the food! We are real foodies who eat out a lot, and the food we had here was amongst the best we had on our whole trip - the chefs are very well trained and talented! This was our first Safari, and we enjoyed it a lot. We didn't know what to expect, really, but the guides and trackers were super kind! The price per night includes two game drives of 3 hours each (one morning and one afternoon drive) and this makes it really good value for money, in our opinion. We stayed 4 nights and managed to see all of the Big 5 animals! What we also really liked is that the reserve only allows 2 vehicles per animal sighting, so you don't feel like you're intruding the natural space of the animals. Overall, this was an amazing experience. If you're looking for a unique getaway or a honeymoon-type destination, this should be it ☺️

Absolutely stunning hotel. The game drives with guide Rifos and tracker Patrick were brilliant, they are incredibly skilled and showed us all the wildlife around. The food was delicious, the beds made up perfect daily. Can’t say anything negative about this place, it’s more than 5 stars.

Karongwe Portfolio - Kuname Lodge, hotel in Karongwe Game Reserve

Set on 9000 hectares of unspoiled African bush, Karongwe Portfolio - Kuname Lodge offers exclusive and luxurious accommodation in Hoedspruit.

We got upgraded to the Becks safari lodge and it was the most amazing holiday we have had. It was such a great experience and we will definitely be back. The staff are absolutely amazing and so lovely. The food is 5 star and the game drives are so much fun. We saw all 5 of the big 5 animals and many others. Got to be so close to the animals and learnt so much from our ranger Kevin. He is so amazing and great at his job.

    Property was attractive, clean and well laid out.

    Property was attractive, clean and well laid out. Staff was outgoing and very hospitable. Food was amazing and plentiful. Daily activities were organized and allowed for maximum opportunities for viewing wildlife. Guides and trackers were friendly and helpful in making sure we experienced all there was to see and do. Sunrise coffee breaks and sunset happy hours on the trail were a bonus. They gave us a chance to relax and chat with people from other parts of the world who were also experiencing this bucket list safari.

    The experience is simply AMAZING!

    The experience is simply AMAZING! We were excited to do our first game drive, but what we didn't know is how lucky we were to have picked Shiduli as our hotel. The team is very warm and is concerned to your well being at all time. The accommodation is very cozy and they organize it and clean it twice a day. The 2 game drives we do per day are a must, since every game drive is a different experience and the rangers/guides/trackers are 100% open to help you find the animals you are looking for. Really a great experience and would definitely recommend Shiduli and all the Karongwe Portfolio branches to everyone.

    It was close enough to Jhb to make comfortably in a day plus making an evening game drive. I’ve been to many reserves, some of them remote and some similar to this but I have to say this was one of the best.

    It was an unforgettable experience from check in right through to check out. The staff was exceptional, the room neat and clean. The food was superlative. Game drives were amazing with a knowledgeable ranger and tracker. I got to see the big 5 and various other antelope. Will definitely recommend it to others.
