마운트 캠더부 프라이빗 게임 리저브

We booked for the 'best of both' package deal. We spent two nights in the lodge (not the main one which is where we took meals but one that is about 300m away down a well-lit pathway). Then we spent our third night up in the pod which is an absolute must. Both the lodges have swimming pools, and luxurious beds and typically luxurious lodge furnishing. For the pod experience you get taken up to the pod with your meals and dropped off for the night. There's a glorious wood-burning hot tub, unbelievable views, and a sky so full of stars it will take your breath away. We didn't see any animals besides impala from the pod but the night air was full of lions roaring and baboons barking. The food is excellent and all local alcohol is included. Also included are two game drives a day. We saw lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo and all manner of buck. Our ranger was Charl, and he is incredibly knowledgeable about not only animals but also birds and plants. He was really great. To be fair, all the staff are great - Nthabiseng communicated with us throughout and made sure that my vegetarian request was attended to. Highly recommend - if you're looking for a spot for an indulgent get away... this is it.

I cannot imagine any other accommodation or setting better than what we experienced at the pods at Camdeboo. Difficult to describe, but you have it all there: breathtaking scenery, complete silence, delicious meals, comfy bed, astonishing stars at night, such friendly and helpful staff, it was just perfect. If you love being in nature, far away from civilisation, but you also love being spoiled, this is for you! Such a treat.
