Rhino Ridge Safari Lodge

Hard to describe how wonderful our experience at Rhino Ridge Lodge was. Exceeded our expectations in every way! 10 out of 10 on hospitality, accommodations, food, and wildlife. Every detail was carefully considered and every need was anticipated. Crucially they also take seriously the need for tourism to benefit the surrounding community through local hiring and philanthropy. I hope I can go back someday!

The location, the people and their service and the food at the Rhino Ridge are simply stunning! Our guide Celiwe took us on amazing game drives and she gave interesting and funny explanations about the animals we saw. Would definitely go there again, preferably for more than the two days we stayed to fully enjoy all the different activities like bushwalks, community visits and spa/pool area!! Great place that also cares about sustainability and giving back via the Isibindi foundation (thank you Abednigo for the interesting insights in your local work!!) 😊🐘🦏

Wow this was great. I do not understand why this is only 4-stars. The people were friendly and very professional. The accommodation is fantastic including the view snd the food, eines and cocktails superb. The game drives informative and very good. We also dud a game walk with an armed guide. Wow. The spa and massage also very good

I thoroughly enjoyed my post Comrades Marathon 5 day stay at Rhino Ridge. Our guide, Thobeka, ‘Toby’ for short was a beautiful person inside and out! Just a delightful, gentle, knowledgeable person and she made our experience so much more memorable. The food was always exquisitely presented and different each day. Many of the lodge staff were shy but friendly when approached and always willing to help. The lodge is part of the ‘Isibindi Africa’ chain of lodges that supports a wide range of conservation projects and geared towards eco friendly tourism. I have stayed in more luxurious lodges such as Kaparma but I really did enjoy and highly recommend this one - and not far from Durban. 4.7⭐️

Unforgettable stay and experience. All the staff were very friendly at the lodge. Got a surprised upgrade to a villa. My game ranger was Celiwe and she was the best that you could get. Everything was so well organised and food was amazing. Prices for the drinks were very affordable too. But the journey to come into the lodge was brutal and it’s recommendable to drive a 4 x 4 car to get there. Nonetheless, this place is just amazing. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing weekend away with rhino ridge. The staff were lovely and friendly and we got some amazing sightings of rhinos, elephant, lion and wild dogs which just made the whole experience. The lodge it’s self sits over looking the picturesque views, it is well decorated and the chief and waiting staff keep your day filled with delicious well prepared meals that you can’t believe you can even think of your next meal yet your watching the time. The game rangers are well informed on the park and go the extra mile to keep the guests happy.

Absolutely WONDERFUL! The staff are super friendly, the food is delicious, the rangers do have a lot of knowledge, the room itself was amazing. The bed was very comfy + big and the shower with the view is phenomenal.

Everything was taken care of down to the last detail. The rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The breakfast, lunch and dinner are of well above average quality. The staff is helpful, very friendly and always there with a broad smile to fulfill your wishes. Actually, everyone here should be mentioned for his or her good care, but if you meet Luyanda your day can't go wrong! What a wonderfully sweet, friendly lady she is! To cross the t's and dot the i's, general manager Dries is visibly present every day to check in with the guests and ensure that everything is to their liking. This level of service is rare and can only be rated with a full score!
