We visited here at midday as a cruise shore excursion. Summertime temps touched 36 degrees centigrade. After a meal and a Xosha dance show we boarded a vehicle for a safari. The roadways are rough so be prepared to do what you’ve got to do. Our driver was excellent but the potholes can’t be avoided. The guide was also excellent. He understood each animal and its behaviours. As it was midday heat the animals were not very active but this is not the fault of the Reserve. Our 3hr safari revealed: various species of antelope, hippos, elephants, lions and warthogs as well as several bird species. In truth this is far from the wilds of Africa but off a coastal Sth African cruise it is probably as good as you can do.

Fantastic experience. Top-notch service. Delicious meals. Highly recommended. LOCATION: Just over an hour's drive from PE. Last 10km on a poor quality gravel road (especially during wet weather). Hotel offers private transfers at an exorbitant price. APPEARANCE: Great. Luxurious, yet fitting of the outdoor experience. Better quality finishing than many of it's competitors. ROOM (Stayed in a Superior Family Room at Pollards Inn): Decor: Quality on par with a 5-star city hotel despite being surrounded by nature. 2 Double beds. Sleeper couch. Large desk/work area. Lovely tranquil patio with a beautiful view. Size: Huge spacious room plus patio. Interleading options available as well. Decently sized bathroom. Amenities: Meets expectations. Bar fridge/snacks included. Full Dstv bouquet. Quality of sleep. Excellent. Comfortable beds. SERVICE: As good as I've experienced. From arrival to departure everyone was fantastic. Knowledgeable game drive and predator park guides. Those little extra touches did not go unnoticed - like washing your car prior to departure or gifting Kwantu caps to the kids playing outside. DINING: Excellent. Fully Halaal. All-inclusive. Decent variety. Excellent quality. Great staff. One of the highlights of the trip. ACTIVITIES/FACILITIES: Trip was unfortunately marred by wet weather so were unable to fully experience everything on offer. Personalised itinerary. Enjoyable game drives with close big 5 encounters. Predator park. Petting zoo. Lots of outdoor facilities. Clean well maintained Muslim prayer facility. The kids' play area could do with some improvement. MY BOOKING AGENT: Hotel website ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Despite being a group of 10, transfers are quoted on the website on a per person basis which would have amounted to a similar price to our flights from Johannesburg. Due to our early evening arrival and hesitancy to tackle the roadtrip on unfamiliar terrain in the dark, the hotel lost out on our party booking an extra night's accommodation as we chose to spend the night in PE and drive through the next day in 2 rental cars which costs significantly cheaper than Kwantu's own transfers. My feeling is that if you are located in an isolated location, accessibility/transfer options for guests making multi-room bookings for a few nights need to be more attractive. Will I recommend/stay there again? Yes definitely.

This experience was a little different than Botlierskop Game Reserve as my excursion here included a visit to a sanctuary for big cats, African dances and lunch after our adventure looking for the big 5. Had a great time and enjoyed up close encounters with the animals. It was chilly and windy that day, so some of the animals were hiding in the bush to shelter from the cool air. Made our search a little ore challenging but still had a good day nonetheless. The luncheon was very nice as well.

We absolutely loved our stay at Kwantu, both as a couple in the honeymoon suites and returning again with family and kids !!! Incredible stay, beautiful surrounds, educational experiences and great hospitality.

The service and facilities were top stuff, as well as the actual reserve itself and the predator rehab centre to was amazing and thanks to Shakir and Saadia for going out of their way to make it so special for us!

We recently stayed at Kwantu for 2 nights. While the game drives were excellent, the hotel is certainly not a 5 star experience. The finishing touches in the room were not up to a 5 star standard, the pool area and tennis courts were run down, the dining room was not well maintained In terms of food, the options provided were decent. However, the variety is quite small for a buffet and one has to ask for certain things (like cool drink, a warm cooked egg at breakfast). The staff were all very pleasant and tried to make our stay as easy as possible Once again, we had a lovely game drive experience but the hotel is certainly not 5 star
