Bonamanzi Game Reserve

About

Bonamanzi Game Reserve, a Big 4 Reserve, is a Natural Heritage Site bordered by the spectacular Lake St. Lucia Isimangaliso Wetlands, a World Heritage Site

Description

This privately owned game reserve and safari lodge is widely recognised as one of the best birding destinations in Southern Africa.

Lake St Lucia and the Hluhluwe River give Bonamanzi its Zulu name, meaning "Look, Water!".

Its 4000ha teams with game, and one of Bonamanzi's special features is that it provides a safe and interactive bush experience in which you can walk or drive, with or without the company of a trained field guide.

To see the Big Five animals, the famous Hluhluwe Umfolozi Game Reserve is a short 20 minute drive away.

Spent my anniversary weekend at Bonamanzi and it was nothing short of spectacular. Stayed in one of their Tree House units which offered a private and serene log cabin style apartment built on stilts, nestled between the trees. The unit was equipped with all the necessities and was clean and tidy. Fred, an amazing game ranger was extremely knowledgeable and courteous. During the 6am game drive, we enjoyed a hot cup of coffee and muffins while Fred passed on his gems of wisdom about all the vast species of animal and plant that we experienced during the drive. Bonamanzi is definitely worth the visit.
We arrived an hour after check-in and the apartment was still being cleaned. The electrical main switch would trip the whole time during our 4-day stay. The apartments were poorly maintained and they had a stench, we tried to spray some room fragrance but the smell persisted. The rooms are poorly air conditioned and the environment is very humid. The door to the second room would not close. The surroundings are beautiful and peaceful however we did not encounter many animals. Overall we did not enjoy our stay.
Camping forest campsites. Private peaceful brilliant private ablutions and kitchen
Thoroughly enjoyed camping on bush campsite 18 with our own ablutions and wash up area, and discovering a place we've never been to before. You have to work hard to find the game but that's what makes it so rewarding. We self drove and a lot of the roads were tricky from all the rain and are not suitable for regular vehicles even on a normal day. There is the option to go on guided game drives though. All the staff we encountered, from the gate guard, to the cleaners, to the reception staff were very friendly and most helpful. We will definitely be back with friends in the future.
First time at Bonamanzi, to attend Karel & Bianca's wedding Ceremony! We loved the relaxing atmosphere along with the wildlife animals all around you! We loved our rooms. We especially loved the breakfast that was served! Wow! Awesome time, and we will most definitely recommend this reserve & hopefully stay over again soon!
We loved the camping and the property. On Friday evening we found low or no pressure in the bathrooms. We contacted the 24 hour number and after 2 attempts a person answered. We were told that some elephants messed up the waterlines acceptable and understood. We were promised that the water should be back soon. Saturday morning, still no water, at this point we just needed to shower. We went to reception but were told we would have to wait a bit longer. By the afternoon we went back to reception to ask for a key of a unit that has water - we had to ask, Bonamanzi did not offer! The keys were given, the evening when we wanted to shower there were other guests in the unit and we almost walked in on other guests sleeping. Eventually we received another units keys and could shower. We understand water issues, we understand that it might take time to resolve, but for the camping fee we paid any of the Bonamanzi fees for that matter we expected a bit more customer service and the situation could have been handled...
At camping site 14 the bathroom taps are electrified. The bathroom and sewerage system certainly needs attention. Restaurant was excellent!Rooms: 2/5
Wow, I loved the welcoming we received just after entering the gate from the giraffes. They were just strolling in front of the car like nobody's business. The park has great views and the atmosphere is really relaxing.I loved the chalets, they are beautiful and the meals were delicious. The staff is friendly, welcoming and helpful. I enjoyed the sights of small game strolling all over the yard anytime of the day or night. I can always go back there whenever I get a chance. I strongly recommend Bonamanzi Game Park.
