Amazing experience. Highly recommended to everyone well worth the money. Great accommodation and friendly staff. Wild animals literally roaming outside your rooms doesnt get any better
The tours are amazing. Special shout out to Helen and Kate for the amazing safaris.
Food was meh. Dinner was tiny portions of frozen food, our family was still hungry. And dessert was literally two spoons of a frozen cafe style dessert. They need to work on the meals, especially since it is announced as “chef prepared to order” food. Breakfast was much better. For the price I was expecting good meals.
Wouldn’t do it again

Disliked: Staff & service
Disappointing as this stay and whole experience used to be so much better. Food portions were so tiny, entree size and there's no way you can still try and call this an African Banquet. So many changes most definitely not for the better.
We had a wonderful experience and thoroughly enjoyed it. We spent all our free time watching the animals from our deck. The tours were great and were an important aspect of the overall wonderful experience. The zoo was fantastic too and certainly not to be missed by anyone.
This exceeded all expectations. I was concerned upon booking that the actual experience and rooms might be overhyped or a bit silly, but everything was just incredible. One of my best stays in Australia by far. The staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. You were receiving 5 star treatment throughout. The rooms are stunning and nothing beats opening the curtains at sunrise to 3 zebra walking by your patio. I felt transported to Africa. You won't regret booking it. The Zoo itself is truly unmissable and we enjoyed two days exploring it by car and bicycle. The animals are superbly treated and have enormous enclosures. 5 stars.
Absolutely amazing stay. Excellent view of zoo animals from room. Staff were friendly and went beyond excellent to make stay enjoyable.comfortable room with great views. Included activities were amazing and made a more enjoyable stay. Excellent meals included. Every one should do this trip at least once in their life
Wonderful experience with very professional staff, accommodation is amazing. All meals fully catered and wonderful. Make sure you arrive at 2.00pm to make the most of your stay.
