Good for a vacation
I would recommend the lodge for private travel or a vacation but not for business travel. The mobile signal was terrible and the wifi did not reach the room I was in. It would be great if I wanted some alone time without any disturbances as I was unreachable during my time there.

Beautiful and super friendly staff
We had a really great stay. Ditholo is beautifully situated. We loved how quiet and beautiful it was! The staff was super friendly and the food delicious. Were super happy with our stay and we would definitely recommend it. Also, if you are an allergic person such as myself, it is a great place. Staff was so helpful and accommodating. From a allergy perspective they got the highest score possible.

Friendly staff but poor access
The hotel was good and the staff friendly. Guests should be warned about the terrible access road of over 30 minutes rough driving.

Highly recommend for a relaxing time in the bush
The staff was incredible! Lebo deserves a special mention - thank you for your help! Ditholo could not have been more accommodating to our needs. We were slightly let down by limited game viewing, but the lodge itself was amazing and we really enjoyed spending time up on the viewing deck. Local hippos were a great plus! Food was local but lekker!

Great for getting over jet lag
This is a great location to get out of the urban nightmare of Jo'burg and Pretoria and acclimatize from your flight. The staff is awesome as is the ambiance. Superb. If a dirt road puts you off, stay in town.
