We spent the weekend at Goodersons Dumazulu Lodge, and we had a great time! It is peaceful, tranquil, and just what was needed! They have crocodiles in an enclosure as well as their own snake world. The rooms are clean and neat. Around the huts ,the gardens are also neat and tidy. The food we had was delicious, and last but not least, the staff was amazing and very accommodating. At night the staff set up a fire for us and we had a lovely time watching the stars, toasting our marshmallows and just taking in all that beautiful outdoor life. To someone who prefers modern rooms with modern touches, I don't think this will fit your description, as there are some older finishings in the room/bathroom. But besides that, overall, it was a great experience!

We didn't stay at the hotel. We visited the traditional Zulu Village which depicts the lifestyle of the Zulu. Very entertaining and educational. Saw how they make shields, baskets and jewelry. Only 19 families live at the village.

Leider muss ich heute eine negative Bewertung abgeben. ||||Unser Erlebnis: ||Im Hotel angekommen erfahren das die Empfangsdame sich nicht wirklich mit etwaigen Aktivitäten rund um die Lodge auskennt. Das kommt in Südafrika eigentlich gar nicht vor. Da man als Gast so ein bisschen darauf angewiesen ist, fand ich es nicht wirklich befriedigend. Vielleicht lag es auch daran, dass wir gerade in ihrem sozusagen Feierabend in die Lodge gestürzt sind. Obwohl vielleicht Sie auch einfach keine Lust denn eine halbe Stunde später suchten wir sie erneut auf und die Dame war noch dort aber das möchte ich nicht beurteilen. Ok,... Zimmerschlüssel bekommen und ab rein schnell die Koffer ins Zimmer stellen. Dort fanden sich auf dem Bett mehrere Ausscheidungen von Tieren. Gekos lt. der Angestellten. Auch sonst im Zimmer überall zu sehen. Im Badezimmerwaschbecken und auf dem Boden im gesamten Zimmer verteilt. Echt ekelhaft. Wir haben dies dann der Empfangsdame die glücklicherweise noch da war mitgeteilt und der Zimmerservice hat das Bett zumindestens sauber gemacht. Da wir mit Halbpension gebucht haben sind wir zum Essen. Das Essen war nicht gut und wir sind nicht wirklich schwer zu händeln. Wir haben bei unseren diesjährigen Afrika Aufenthalt echt viele Lodges und Hotels besucht, da wir eine Tour von Hoedspruit bis nach Durban mit dem Auto gefahren sind, auch große Teile durch den Kruger, mit Übernachtungen und sogar über das Swaziland. Keines der Lodges war nur annähernd ein Vergleich mit dieser. Nach dem Essen sind wir aufs Zimmer. Ich habe insgesamt aus unseren Betten. 23 Würmchen und sonstige Viecher aus den geholt. Eine Spinne war auch dabei. Sowas habe ich in unserem gesamten Aufenthalt und auch zuvor, wir sind nicht das erste mal in Südafrika noch nie erlebt. Solch ein Parasitenproblem. Echt nicht akzeptabel. Mittlerweile haben wir 1:00 Uhr Morgens. An schlafen ist nicht zu denken da genau vor unserem Zimmer einheimische ne echt lautstarke Party feiern, ohne jegliche Rücksicht auf die übrigen Gäste. Da wir Morgen in ein Privatreservat fahren ist die Nacht für uns um 4:00 Uhr vorbei. So stellt man sich seinen Urlaub nun wirklich nicht vor. Aber auch jetzt bekommt man die Nacht ganz gut rum. Im Abstand von Minuten kann man immer wieder Viecher aus dem Bett holen und auch auch so fangen. Achso auch Spinnen hatten wir bis jetzt 5 Stück. Die letzte krabbelte mir vor paar Minuten übers Kopfkissen. Hygiene? absolute Fehlanzeige. Ich persönlich bin froh wenn ich hier raus bin und die übrige Zeit noch schnell vergeht. Mich juckt es einfach am gesamten Körper. Sehr, sehr schade den die Anlage und an sich auch die Zimmer sind eigentlich ganz schön aber die Erfahrung hat für mich das Erlebnis...

While very clean, potential of the lovely lodge is sadly let down by their lack of maintenance. Shower-heads in both our rondavels provided extremely minimal water - just getting soap rinsed off was a challenge so washing hair after a day in the bush is not an option. Bathroom door did not close due broken parts. Braai grids rusted & cooking in the kitchen was made difficult with only 1 medium frying pan, no pots, no wash-up cloths. Our one rondavel had no stove or microwave. Staff were always pleasant & arrival assistance with trolly was good, however, departure assistance was non existent. Staff need a heads-up that tips usually happen on departure. Having someone supervise these little things that make a big difference to one’s stay is vital in the hospitality industry as there are so many places one can...
