Shalati Adventure Lodge

I loved the rustic accommodations and being able to hear the wild animals all around us while still feeling safe and having the luxuries like hot water and a comfortable bed. The WiFi was spotty but what do you expect in the middle of a safari?! 

It is the real thing for a respectable price. I was able to get a reservation for a quick unexpected business trip stop over. uick and friendly with COLD beer. I was truely a happy camper. The little plunge pool needs some fresh make up. I am sure it is on the cards

Camping in well equiped tents direclty next to the Manyaleti game reserve. Everything is available in the tents: shower, toilet, bed, couches, enough sockets,... You can hear the sounds of nature at night. Central area with pool, bar and boma. Friendly and helpful staff, nice welcome. Possibility to do a bush walk or game drive. 

Slowly but surely things are happening upgrading the lodge is great always good reception good food africa experience tents.
I do recommend the lodge.
Well done shalati.
You do need to upgrade the entrance road to accommodate Coaches

We spent 2 nights at this lodge as part of a G Adventures tour of Southern Africa. The accommodation was in the safari tents which was an interesting experience. On the plus side it was cosy and comfortable in the beds and the exposed-to-the-elements bathroom area was large and spacious with a great shower, the only minor downside was the lack of floor space in the bedroom which was a little cramped and really only had room for the twin/double bed and two side tables, it was also very cold indeed on the nights we stayed, meaning we slept in many layers and really did need the big duvet and blankets provided. It is awesome, however, to be able to hear the lions roaring outside and the hyenas barking and for that reason I would definitely choose to stay in the tents again. 

The staff at the lodge were great, especially 'Shorty' in the bar. Service was always friendly and the food was good (we had all buffet or BBQ style), we also liked the way the tables were laid out in the round area in front of the bar, exposed to the elements which meant amazing stars at night whilst eating dinner and a firepit to keep us warm despite the chill once the sun has dropped. The pool is small and I don't think any of our group used it, but the bar area is welcoming and the Safari tours you can do from the lodge are fabulous, we did both the evening and morning game drives and loved them. We saw 4 of the big 5 on our very first drive in Manyeleti! 

A big shout out to the staff for re-opening the office for me to pay on our final night - through crossed wires we had not been and paid our bill and only realised this after everyone else had been and done theirs, but the staff were very helpful and re-opened the office for us late at night.

Glamping in the bush!!

A very pleasant SA Bush experience

Group holiday

There are no doors or curtains in showers and toilets so if you are sharing with someone can be a bit awkward.  Wifi is available in the dining area but not in the chalets.  There were lots of ants, spiders in our chalet bathroom.  Breakfast was nice and staff were helpful.  Manyeleti game reserve had heaps of animals. there are mosquito nets so use them.

No doors on toilets and showers in chalets

I stayed with this hotel with a group tour, contiki, and 7 people had money stolen while we were out on safari. The company took no responsibility for this. They have you return your keys before you leave so all employees could have access. There are no safes. Do not leave any cash in the rooms unlocked at any time. It was believed to be an inside job. Over $2k stolen between everyone over the course of 2 days.
