I was VERY impressed with Kambaku- the lodge and rooms are nice but what impressed me most was the owners Nicola and Bryce that treated all the guests like family- they are extremely hands and gave my older parents the room closest to the Main area as my dad struggle to walk far. They also had steps for him to get into the game vehicle. Although I left my 2 year old boy and 4 year old girl at home they have a 3 year old daughter that entertained us all with her laughter and wit and they say that when families with smaller children come to visit they usually join their girl at their house etc.
They are almost completely solar powered and will also install the solar geysers in the near future so very green and environmentally friendly too. The food was great and the atmosphere homely and relaxed- I really like the lodge very much- we were a mix of guests but because there is only 8 rooms total we had brunch and dinner together as a group and it worked out perfectly and we all got to know each other very well. If he is available ask Bryce the owner to be the ranger he is one of the best I ever had before and said he would do it on request (our tracker Albert was excellent too and walked through the bush to ensure we get right to animals- the other clients said there rangers at Kambaku was also outstanding…
November was lovely to see all the young wildlife and the bird viewing was fantastic. We saw the Big 5 and more in only 3 game drives and even had a close encounter with a Leopard. They do muffins est. on the morning drives and then a full brunch at 10 am with breakfast and lunch menu items like Lasagna and salads est.… I cannot recommend Kambaku enough and cannot wait to see Nicola the owner again as she made us feel like family!
