MILIMA Big 5 Safari Lodge

MILIMA Big 5 Safari Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Our safari trip to Africa was truly the trip of a lifetime. The safari drivers were absolutely amazing and made every day such a great experience. It was a smaller resort, which I loved because everything felt so personal and welcoming. It never felt crowded or overly commercial. The food was another highlight. The dinners were incredible, and we looked forward to them every evening. Between the amazing safari experiences, the wonderful staff, the beautiful setting, and the incredible food, this is a trip we will never forget. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a special and more personal safari experience."

The restaurant is gorgeous. The only tiny bit of feedback is that the restaurant staff got things a bit confused for us and forgot some of the food and got the courses mixed up so the children got their main courses while the adults were served the starter so then had to wait ages for their pudding while we had the rest of the meal, and the side orders of vegetables never materialised but overall we had a wonderful stay "
