Sunset Lodge & Safaris

Mr Vincent and Toni and Staff were friendly, and they treated us with kindness and respect and they service was excellent Thank you !!

Vince and Toni were amazing hosts and made us feel like visitors in their home. The food was outstanding and included meat cooked over the fire pit - so atmospheric. We could buy alcohol for reasonable prices. Service from the staff was amazing and our rooms were so comfortable. Lovely bathroom with good water pressure, air conditioning, no mosquitos and we could drink the water from the taps as they have clean bore water. Activities were exceptional and so well organised. The bonus was having giraffe and ostrich wander past the outdoor eating area. - A once in a lifetime experience.

I cannot express enough my thanks and admiration for the time we spent at Sunset Lodge & Safaris. We had a fabulous time. Our hosts, Vincent and Toni were amazing: From the welcome we received the moment we arrived (Toni) to the continuous consideration for our wellbeing. Clean rooms, comfortable beds and fabulous breakfasts, including delicious homemade marmalade. You and your staff's attention to detail was amazing. I also really enjoyed the interaction and chatting with you both (especially Vincent's sense of humor) and watching our evening meal being cooked over the open grill fire while we enjoyed a (delicious wine) sundowner drink. An unexpected bonus was the knowledge and experience you both shared not only about the animals, but also the flora and fauna. We learned so much. For me, a real dream come true, especially the thrilling experience of observing so many animals (ostrich, zebra, giraffes, mongooses, tortoises and many more), that passed by so close up to our "lodge" veranda. it was breathtaking. I took over 900 photos. I would love to return to spend more time with you.

Two night was not enough time to experience the wonder that is Sunset - Vincent, Toni, Beauty, Future and the entire staff at Sunset (including Michael) made this visit the best part of our visit to South Africa. The accommodations are well kept (we especially loved the outdoor showers), food cooked fresh (especially the red velvet cookies, which were a hit) and the staff could not be more welcoming. We had the pleasure of having Vince join our tour to Kruger and his knowledge / photography skills are unmatched. Right outside our door there were giraffes - it was incredible. Great few days all around.

From start to finish, this holiday was perfect; before we arrived we questioned Vince and Toni’s vast local knowledge and experience to help plan the best options for our family, with 12 and 13 year old boys, getting the balance of trips and excursions was key for our experience. We stayed for 10 nights at the lodge and loved every second, sitting with Toni and Vince each morning and night for food, relaxed and listening to the depth of information that they had about the area, flora and fauna as well as talking to other guests and hearing stories of what we had all seen and done was a great touch, it felt very personal as they cared about ours and the other guests enjoyment. This lodge has a homely feel too it, the team of staff work well together and they always greet you with a smile, the food is homemade, plentiful and tasty, the bedrooms and general areas are clean and comfortable. Thanks to Vince, Toni and the team for making one boy’s (now adult’s) dream come true; when we left home, he, his wife and two sons had an amazing holiday planned, but you made it even better when we got there, a holiday that enriched us all; we could have stayed anywhere and seen the animals, but we were fortunate to stay with you and experience your hospitality…we will be coming back.

Vincent and Toni have been great hosts from the warm welcome until departure. The staff is very kind, knowledgeable and customer friendly. The lodge was new and simply brilliant. The bush experience was amazing. All in all a wonderful stay!!! Thx all at Sunset Lodge.
