Amanzingwe doesn't exist. It is now La Joya. Very very different no more country feel. Upmarket and food rather pricey in comparison to most of the eateries around the dam. Still an enjoyable experience Sat outside and had lunch.Waitress extremely friendly and helpful
So we ended up having a buffet breakfast for my moms birthday at their main restaurant. Starting with a cereal and yogurt, then some pastries that were pretty good. From there we got your regular bacon, sausage, mushrooms, etc. But the best was defiantly the egg station, a delicious omelet. Yum.
A must visit lodge. The food is amazing and the staff are extremely friendly. The rooms themselves are beautiful and you get a sense of the African theme throughout the lodge. Plenty of activities to do around the lodge with the most popular being the amazingwe zip line. Definitely recommend a day visit if you can't stay for a night or two at least. Great experience will definitely go again.
My kids and I have stayed at the lodge a few times. The hotel is a great venue for a weekend getaway to the magaliesberg. Many of the rooms are set in areas which have great views of the wildlife, bush and surrounding mountains. Rooms are clean. The main hotel is very nice and has a great country feel. A nice bar lounge area and a restaurant with fairly priced meals for adults and kids. Kids enjoy the play area and swimming pools. Staff get to know you personally and remember you when you return. A very friendly hotel at good prices.
We went the for our mini honeymoon trip. The staff were absolutely friendly, we also got to meet the owner of the place and he took particular interest in knowing us and why we had chosen to come there. We found him to be a very receptive man and always passionate about improving things there to the benefit of the customer. They showered us with food platters for free, fruits, and drinks. We ended up extending our stay by an extra 3 days. I would recommend you choose room 6 with a Jacuzzi in it. There are so many positives about this place, I wouldn't finish if I start.
been visiting as a day visitor for lunch for a few years now. decided to stay there for three nights and explore the magaliesberg with my kids. staff are incredible they really focus on customer satisfaction. venue is peaceful and quaint. staff were very personally involved with my children over the three days that we stayed there. stayed in the room next to reception area. nice space in the room for the three of us with nice decor and was very clean. ate supper at the restaurant every evening. food was very nice and prices were good. kitchen got my young kids food out very quickly even when the dining room was very busy. they made the kids a priority which was nice. buffet breakfast is incredible. quite a good spread of everything and included in ones stay. the breakfasts were very popular with people on breakfast runs as well. kids enjoyed the pools and trampoline. I got to sit right on the play area and have a drink while watching wildlife come up to the game fence. a good experience
A magnificent place with a beautiful view to enjoy breakfast from the menu or buffet. Excellent destination for everyone who wants a short distance get away from Johannesburg / Pretoria. It is open for everyone and has sleep over facilities. A wedding venue and conference facilities. Playground and a pool for kiddies. So beautiful to enter the place and immediately see some wild animals. Peaceful and gorgeous place.
