It was a great experience! The staff went beyond what is expected to make our stay special. The food was delicious. The views from the luxury safari tents are spectacular. Thanks to everyone at Bushwa. We will visit again.

Verified reviewexcellent

This place is just stunning! Hidden away in the bush and so luxurious! We we greeted and offered a welcome drink,we were made to feel at home right away. The service was very personal and we were asked what we wanted to do and when ie.Game drives,luch,dinner... We were taken to the treehouse where we would spend the first night, when I stepped into this treehouse I could not believe how luxurious it was and so well furnished and decorated. We were even greeted by a hot water bottle in our bed! We were woken by the sounds of waterbuck eatign just downstairs from the treehouse,what a wonderful and unforgettable experience! Wait to see the surprise you get after returning from a game drive!!!!... Food was 5 star, we were served a 3 course meal which was absoloutely delicious from start to finish. The deck at night is so romantic,with the boma fire lit and all the stars you can see. The safari tent rooms are luxurious and comfortable,beautiful big bath and outdoor shower for the adventurous. I could go on for ages... Annamarie the owner was a wonderful and caring hostess,eager to please in every instant. And of course her wonderful family who run the business. The staff is friendly and helpful. What a stunning weekend I will definaltely return again soon! Excellent Excellent Excelllent!!!!!!
