Michael ““the serenity “”

Though I travel a lot it is rare that I will give a review good or bad. Abelana has caused the exception as it is a treasure. A rare melding of relaxation and exciting experiences. The property itself is beautifully appointed from the main lodge to the luxurious bungalows. To wake up to monkeys cavorting in the trees above , bushbuck just off your deck or giraffe feeding behind your bungalow, the wildlife experience is incredible. The view from the main lodge made every meal an adventure from watching baboons to elephants to crocodile and hippo whilst you dined on excellent food . The variety in the reserve of animals and birds to spot was fantastic and it was lovely to see the interaction with the researchers who we encountered throughout the park.The staff were amazing from the cleaners thru to management , all friendly attentive and patient. The little touches of having really good rain ponchos at the ready when we were caught in a shower way out bush shows great attention to detail. Thank you Robert as manager and the ever smiling Issac and all the staff but especially thank you Cedric for your expert guiding and the laughs .

I genuinely cannot rate the Abelana River Lodge highly enough. We spent a weekend there for our first ever family safari (two adults, one eight year old boy) and this lodge exceeded every expectation. The staff, the food, the location, everything was superb! The location is incredible with the lodge and rooms nestled beside a river. We regularly saw elephants and monkeys as we sat for our meals. Note that the lodge is about a 1.5 hour drive from Hoedspruit Airport. The decor is amazing. It does not jar with the surroundings but instead it complements the nature with the indoor-outdoor setting. The food was ridiculously good. We felt like we were having Michelin star food for every meal. It really was that good. Compliments to the kitchen team! Last but by no means least, we wanted to say a special thank you to our game ranger, Duncan. He made the entire trip so special. He brought us close (and safely) to the animals and you can tell that he really knows his stuff. Our twice daily safari trips with him were fantastic and he made it his mission to get us to see the animals. He fully succeeded in that mission and we are totally grateful! THANK YOU DUNCAN!!!

A great choice of breakfast items to choose from from cereals, continental meats, fruit, yogurt & hot breakfasts too. Staff cleaned room every day and prepared room for night time by providing fresh water and making sure lights were on, blinds were down and mosquito net was surrounding the bed We had the most amazing game drives with the best guide, Adi, who was so caring and knowledgeable and answered all our questions on all the animals interestingly and thoroughly - and there were many!
