Mwandi View

Les propriétaires les plus sympathiques et arrangeants que j'ai jamais rencontrés. Ablutions chaudes et propres, vues spectaculaires, bonne bière, superbe terrasse d'observation et piscine. nous avons passé deux nuits en camping et c'était un endroit parfait pour notre visite.

Super accueil et passé un moment fabuleux. Un dîner delicieux. J'aurais apprécié un repas fait pour nous mais nous avons pris soin de nous pendant deux nuits. Belle barre d'honnêteté. Belles vues depuis les tentes en toile. Nous avons séjourné dans la tente 6 qui avait un chaume recouvrant la toile. La climatisation est vraiment nécessaire! Bon membre du personnel (Kebby). Nous avons également apprécié le voyage du soir en makoro par Chibeya.

Je ne peux que recommander ce gîte. Anton, Amelia (et Boris) sont très soucieux de faire passer un excellent séjour à leurs invités. Les lodges sont juste à côté d'un bassin d'eau où l'on peut observer zèbres, hyènes, éléphants, etc. La nourriture est très bonne. Les lodges sont très grands et propres. Le soir, il y a toujours un bon feu où vous pouvez terminer la soirée. Le WIFI fonctionne bien aussi.

We had a wonderful 4 night stay as a family of 4 at Mwandi View Lodge. Amelia and Anton were absolutely brilliant hosts - they took us in at very short notice when our reservation at another lodge nearby fell through at the last minute (through no fault of our own) and made us feel welcome instantly. I can’t overstate how important they were to the quality of our stay here - they were seemingly always present, friendly, helpful and kind. They have built up the Lodge over a number of years and their personal touch is apparent everywhere. The Lodge is brilliantly organised - everything works perfectly due to their close involvement and obvious attention to detail. The fixed luxury tents we stayed in had everything you could possibly want - large comfortable beds, nice bedding, spare blankets, a spacious bathroom area at the back of the tent with a fabulous hot shower, power sockets and a small kitchen at the front of the tent fully kitted out with a fridge, small oven, sink, washing up sponge and detergent, knives, chopping board etc. The tents had large sliding doors at the front which made entry and exit super easy and also contributed to a great view of the river from the bed! The tents are cleaned a d serviced daily and the staff were without exception helpful and kind. The communal dining area with a nice bar and the large deck with a swimming pool and lots of chairs for lounging around on for sundowners were perfect, with stunning views over the river. There was a newly built water trough in front of the deck which attracted all kinds of birds and impalas when we stayed - at times elephants and buffalo come down too apparently. The breakfasts were excellent (choice of Continental or full English - both delicious) and the evening meals (you need to pre-order) were also great - well cooked, with generous portions, good variety and served with great attentiveness and a smile. One important thing to note is that the pictures posted online in no way do justice to how nice the place is. The owners are continuously updating the facilities, and most of the pictures are outdated - the current Lodge and campsite have a very plush feel to them. One minor snag was that the Wifi download speeds were a little slow, but this didn’t impact us too much as there is good 3G and 4G mobile reception in the Lodge anyway. Both Anton and Amelia were very happy so share their extensive knowledge of the local area with us and also helped us to book a transfer from Kasane to Vic Falls with zero hassle. We’ll definitely come and stay again next time we’re in the area - and so should you!

Had a very pleasant couple of nights here - highly recommended for laid back atmosphere & good food - with the bonus of a great waterhole on site for viewing animals at night (we saw mainly hippos & elephants but I daresay with more time we would have seen more). The tents are comfortable & well kitted out, though hot in the day when we stayed (temperatures in the high thirties) but OK at night. Maybe more powerful fans would be something to consider. Special mention for Lucky, the guide who took us into the park both days & worked hard to find the animals for us.

Mwandi View is exceptional and outstanding. Amelia and Anton are excellent hosts, who care about their guests and do everything to make their stay a pleasant one. Our tented cabin was well furnished and very comfortable. Amelia takes great pride in the excellent gourmet meals that are prepared every evening. Anton has constructed a water trough and water hole on the property and every evening it is visited by elephants, hippos, or giraffes. Two game drives and two river trips were arranged for us. All were excellent. The night game drives with Anton were exceptional and gave us a new appreciation of the environment. We felt very privileged to have a personal experience of Africa and highly recommend Mwandi View.
