Sibani Lodge

I booked a 1 night stay in the tent and online the Price was R1200 for 2 people for a tent but when they whatsapped me I was told it was R2000 and that the prices changed. I paid the price I saw on their website( R1200) but was told to add R650 for my partner, ok fine I paid that. They only served breakfast included in the price and dinner and lunch you pay for on the side. I did not like that especially because part of their rules was no food or drinks allowed in the lodge so I didn’t eat. The game drive was amazing and so was the tour lady Mapule. I don’t know if I’d recommend Sibani lodge to anyone.

The actual tent was fantastic. Always clean. The ladies always had the hot water flask filled and the hot water bottles ready every evening. Meals were fantastic. Specific dietary requirements were catered for excellently. Camp site is a drive from the main lodge, but that gives you a chance to see the wild life.

My experience at Sibani was bittersweet, sweet in that our Luxury Lodge was absolutely amazing. However few things were unpleasant, 1. there is no phone line from the rooms so we have to whatsapp, the manager did not respond to our whatsapp messages, at one point I had to walk to the restaurant for ice and walked back carrying it myself. 2. The manager again was not the friendliest I witnessed him greet certain guests and not others and I hate to say this but what I witnessed was race inclined. 3. The safari with not a single animal insight was so disappointing, I am convinced there are no animals on that property, funny thing is the guide warned us that we may not see any before we even departed. We paid R12 000 for the 2 nights and I honestly don't feel that we got our monies worth. What I have to commend is the waitresses service, specifically Portia, she is a gem. I forgot my speaker at the lodge and again sent a whatsapp to arrange for it to be returned but as usual I got no response; I managed to call Portia, and she personally sent it back to me via Pep Send on her day off. She is absolutely amazing!

i had an amazing stay at Sibani Lodge. The staff was absolutely amazing, the ambience was breath-taking and the unit had beautiful views and was clean. i thoroughly enjoyed the activities as well.

Great outdoor experience. Clean and exclusive tent. Friendly staff. Awesome food at the restaurant. It was great seeing animals as we move around to the restuarant.

My best friend and I were only able to stay for one night, but what fun. We got to see the friendly roaming Giraffee, and the tent itself was amazing. Fully equipped with everything you need and for that “escape the city” feel. The staff were phenomenal. From accommodating our early check out, preparing a take away breakfast and providing a cozy place for me to wait, the staff ensure we were well looked after. Would highly recommend. The only “down side” was not having enough time and the jacuzzi was a bit too hot so we could unfortunately not use it. However, besides this it was an awesome stay and would definitely recommend it.
