My husband and I had the pleasure of staying at Ukutula Lodge in September 2024 to celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary. We were thoroughly impressed with the beauty and cleanliness of the lodge. We had the unforgettable opportunity to walk with the lions, pet baby lions and cheetahs. We thoroughly enjoyed the Predator Tour, Enrichment Walk with the Lions, Water Hole Experience, and Flora & Fauna Bush Walk. The food was delicious, and the staff were exceptionally kind and respectful very knowledgeable. The owners were absolutely amazing and made our stay truly memorable. We will never forget the thrilling experience of hearing the lions roar at night and throughout the day. We highly recommend Ukutula Lodge and would love to return in the future.

There aren’t enough stars to rate Ukutula , from checking in to checking out is faultless, the Staff are incredible and that is all due to the exceptional training they’ve had, Willi who owns Ukutula has standards. The Staff choose who you speak too treat everyone like part of this unique family. No praise can be enough for them. The accommodation at Ukutula are just like the Staff perfect, beautifully decorated individual thatched lodges, with an outside sitting area complete with a fire pit, camp chairs to sit around the fire pit plus a table and chairs on the veranda area. The bedroom’s are beautiful a lovely sitting area with a comfy sofa, a dining table, tv, ours had kitchenette superbly equipped which we didn’t use except the fridge. The restaurant serves beautifully presented meals and breakfast is a magnificent feast. The gardens with 2 pools are gorgeous with so many animal figures representative of the wildlife. We had joined our friends there, it was the final destination on our month long trip it was a reunion and our friend said it would be special, special doesn’t come close for Dreams coming True, we’ve been privileged of visiting several countries in Africa to see wildlife in a natural habitat, to play with Lion Cubs, to be licked by Fiji the Cheetah was something I never thought I’d do, but I have never dreamed that I would hold a 4 week old Lion Cub, that is a memory to cherish forever. Not only does Ukutula make dreams come true, the conservation that they do is a vital to the wildlife world, their laboratory is fascinating and great education on what they are doing to preserve wildlife. Thank You Ukutula for Making More Tan Dreams Come True

Such an amazing experience for our family. This is our second visit from Australia, last time was 9 years ago. Wonderful and informative owners, guides and staff who went above and beyond to make the experience for our family thoroughly enjoyable. Amazing conservation work. Thank you to all the team.
