    Clean and spacious rooms, beautiful natural surroundings, calm atmosphere for a good night's sleep, quick and friendly gate staff. Enjoyed stunning sunsets with a well-priced bottle of wine outside. Exceptionally pleasant Greg and outstanding staff. Delicious breakfast with little extras. The Sable suites were comfortable with a patio for relaxation. The food was delicious and the staff helpful. Game drive and guides were knowledgeable and enjoyable. a relaxing stay with regret for not staying longer. Will definitely return.

    Loved the stunning views of the natural landscape with animals wandering around. The restaurant was wonderful and the private verandah was perfect for enjoying the African sunset. So much to do, even a playground for the kids!

    Animals in an unsuitable environment, but hey, who cares about their wellbeing?

    We recently stayed at a lodge in Blantyre and had a fantastic experience. the room at the lodge was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. We loved the patio outside where we could relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. the staff were extremely helpful and pleasant, making our stay even more enjoyable. the food itself was delicious, with a great mix of local and international dishes. We highly recommend going on a game drive, as the guides were knowledgeable and it was a truly enjoyable experience.

    We will definitely be back. Cons: Nothing at all.

    I absolutely loved the decoration at Game Haven Lodge. The whole ambiance was very special and had a cozy feeling that made me feel right at home. The general areas of the hotel were beautifully designed and well-kept. As a senior woman, I appreciated the accessibility of the hotel. The pathways and facilities were all easily accessible and there were no obstacles that made it difficult for me to move around.

    The only thing I would have asked for a better vacation for senior people is more assistance from the children working there. While the staff was generally friendly, there were times when I could have used some extra help or guidance, especially with carrying my luggage or navigating around the hotel.

    The location of this hotel is outstanding, with breathtaking views of the surrounding area. The game viewing experience is exceptional, with knowledgeable guides and a wide variety of herbivorous game, birds, and fish. The spacious and comfortable rooms provide a peaceful retreat, perfect for escaping the hustle and bustle of the city. The staff at this hotel are incredibly friendly and hospitable, making me feel welcome throughout my stay. The hotel also offers convenient amenities such as airport transfers and a golf course, adding to the overall experience.

    Could not be improved in any way.

    I had an amazing time at Game Haven Lodge during my weekend break. The free game drives were a highlight, with a knowledgeable driver and guide who showed us the beautiful animals and surroundings. The pool looked inviting and the lake-side bar and barbeque area were fantastic. The staff was extra friendly and the food was lovely. I appreciated being able to pay in dollars, avoiding the need to go back into town. a great mini game park stay with inclusive activities and a comfortable room.

    100% Recommend this hotel.

    The value for money at this hotel was incredible. I couldn't believe everything that was included in the price - the room, activities, and breakfast. And the location was perfect, surrounded by a safari park where I got to see giraffes and zebras up close. The staff were also incredibly friendly and made me feel welcome throughout my stay.

    The hotel breakfast menu could use some improvement - it would be great if they could make sure everything is fully stocked and ready for guests, like having drinking glasses and coffee refills readily available. It would add a more professional touch to the dining experience.

    The comfortable loungers provide a perfect spot to unwind while listening to the soothing sound of the cascading waterfall. After a fun-filled day of activities, the garden outside offers a tranquil space for families to relax and enjoy each other's company.

    My children wanted more kid-friendly activities.

    The delightful Nyala rooms provide a stylish retreat with a semi-private verandah and garden, perfect for relaxing in the evenings - it's like having your own private oasis!

    Pillows were a bit hard.

    A perfect choice for families wishing to go at their own pace, Game Haven Lodge offered a wonderful experience for me and my family. With a beautiful garden outside, we were able to relax and unwind after a full day of enjoying activities. The kids had a blast taking a plunge in the pool and feeling refreshed, while my wife and I relaxed in comfortable loungers, listening to the cascading waterfall. It truly was a haven of relaxation and fun for the whole family.

    My children wanted more freedom to explore the property on their own.

    We were thrilled to escape the chaos of the city and immerse ourselves in the tranquil serenity of this lodge. The breathtaking views and diverse wildlife were truly a sight to behold. The game rangers were incredibly knowledgeable and made our safari experience unforgettable. Additionally, the spacious rooms and comfortable beds provided a cozy retreat after a long day of exploration. However, the lack of a diverse menu and inconsistent breakfast quality left us wanting more.

    The pool was awesome, perfect for chilling on a lounger and listening to the waterfall. We even had a wild ride on a game drive with an experienced ranger. So cool! And Blantyre Market is just a short drive away.

    Could use more options for young party-goers.

    The Game Park was like a mini safari, complete with a golf course for the adventurous. The restaurant had a touch of magic and the verandah provided the perfect backdrop for a serene evening.

    It was so annoying having to wait for the animals to pass on the golf course before I could tee off. Ugh, wildlife!
