My family of 4 with kids aged 23 and 25 stayed at Grace of Africa for one night on route further into safari area. Warmly greeted by owners Nicolette and Matthew, introduced us to our butler Michael who took great care of us and any need we had. The accommodations were just stunning with great attention to detail to the decorating. The bathroom gorgeous! And the outdoor shower amazing! The pool was wonderful as it was a heat wave when we arrived , so immediately cooled off in that. The food was absolutely delicious! We loved the “mom and pop” and lamb, soooo good! So nice to try local food. We each had our own villa, patio, boma. Monkeys wandering around the property. We went for a guided bush walk with Wayne who is so knowledgeable, it was a real treat to hear his stories. We came upon a herd of elephants and Buffalo on our way to our “Sundowner”. What a sight! So peaceful and amazing to sit with a drink and look across the Crocodile River to view 2 of the Big 5! The evening brought a wicked lightening storm which was so exciting to sit outside and watch that, while sharing stories and laughs with Michael and Lawrence. Such wonderful people, in such a short time of being together, we felt we’ve known them a long time. So comfortable. It was hard to leave Michael in the morning. Such a gracious host. Wish we had more time at Grace of Africa. A gem in South Africa!
