We had a true African bush experience with many wildlife sightings. It was humbling and relaxing and the staff couldn’t do enough for us. A wonderful team of people.

Posto eccezionale. Durante i safari abbiamo visto tutti gli animali possibili: elefanti, giraffe, iene, leoni, rinoceronti, zebre, leopardi, bufali, ... miti e da pochissimi metri di distanza. L'hotel è veramente confortevole. Servizio estremamente cortese.

Un sueño hecho realidad!!!

10.0

Simbavati Hilltop es un sueño hecho realidad! Las instalaciones y la vista que tienes de todas las cabañas y las áreas comunes es impresionante. Ves hipopótamos todo el tiempo en el río! Las cabañas son increíbles, tiene una cama en el deck que es espectacular. La ducha está afuera y tiene una vista linda. El baño tiene una bañera al lado de la ventana de la que no te quisieras ir nunca. La cama del cuarto tiene calentador eléctrico. La comida, la piscina, el servicio son perfectos. Los safaris increíbles, vimos rinos, elefantes, leopardos, bufalos, jirafas, impalas, wilddogs, kudus y muchos más, también muchas aves preciosas. Gracias por días esos días perfectos Mondray, Leandra, Daniel, Colbert, Derek!!! Fue un sueño estar ahí! Recomendadísimoooooo! Vayan!!!!

The stay was a dream

10.0

Thanks Simbavati for an amazing stay! The staff were all so nice. My boyfriend had cheese allergy, so every meal they either made him something separate or tweaked it for him. Food was excellent. We each had a massage and it was reasonably priced. Our tent was #1. Although it didn't have a clear river view, we had elephants visit us multiple times in our front yard. And last night they prepared our room to celebrate our anniversary.
