Kuleni Game Park — Attraction in The Big Five False Bay Local Municipality

For starters, There are NO contact details on the website or on the grossly outdated Facebook page for the reserve, other than that of their highly acclaimed collection of lodges.

Next, there are countless spelling errors on the website, seems legit right?

Even more concerning, the "emergency contact" (more like the ONLY contact) I could find across the entire site didn't answer my call! (sorry to all those who have no other choice than to rely on this "emergency" contact.)

According to my knowledge, most reserves, regardless of game type require a guide or a ranger or two to accompany ANY ACTIVITIES on the reserve for OBVIOUS safety reasons!

All the while trying to find more info before booking a stay there, I came across a VERY disturbing article published days ago, where the park euthanized an innocent mother giraffe for protecting her baby from CARELESS guests who obviously wandered too close to the animal and her baby, ignoring any distress signals that may have been displayed by the mother... Giraffes (in my experience) are not aggressive in nature and are often spooked long before one is able to get remotely close enough to cause such an "attack"...

Wow, do people really need to be educated about wild animal etiquette? I HIGHLY doubt that the mother giraffe deserved to be senselessly killed and her calf orphaned.

Needless to say, I will definitely NOT be booking into ANY of the lodges at this reserve if the park condones such reckless behavior putting both guests and...

We had the honour of staying within the park at indlulamithi bush lodge and I was blown away at the absolute luxury nestled deep in the bush.

This really is the best 5star rated self catering accommodation you can find. The beautiful surrounding and the facilities available, your family will be short of nothing.

The main house has a fully functioning kitchen and large enough to make entire meals.there is plenty of space to run around for the kids and a swimming pool to cool down in aswell.

We were fortunate enough to accommodate all 12 of our family members in all the rooms and chalets available. It was so nice to have the entire family together and enjoy the sunset and fire pit.

We enjoyed the night sky and we're amazed at all of the stars we could see which is not easy coming...
