We stayed at Bayethe Lodge for part of our honeymoon for a few nights and I wish we would've stayed longer. I cannot speak highly enough about the experience we had at Bayethe! The team truly has something special and certainly gives their guests the experience of a lifetime. Our ranger, Mino, made our trip so wonderful, "beyond your wildest... More

We stayed in Bayethe for my husband's 50th birthday for 4 nights and have to say that we found it exceptional in every way, from the game drives to the quality of the food and service. The "tent" was lovely and had everything you need and was very private except for the Warthogs and Velvet monkeys that came to visit... More

Shamwari Bayethe Lodge must have been a wonderful experience in its heyday. With time there seems to have been a lack of reinvestment which has led to appearances not befitting a 5* establishment.-poorly maintained wooden decks,scrapes on what were beautiful wooden floors in tents,stain marks on seats etc. The food,despite many positive recommendations, does not conform to 5* presentation nor...

There where always a great variety of excellent food to choose... More

We recently stayed at Bayethe Lodge for two nights as we were celebrating a big birthday. The location was good, but marred by the newly built cement wall (even if a low one) clearly seen from our first room. I had specifically enquired about having an outside shower, but our first room did not have one (hence a room swop... More

My Wife and I just spent 3 nights at Bayete Tented Lodge on the Shamwari Game Reserve. It was a trip of a life time. We started in Cape Town, then Franschhoek then ended on the Safari. The Lodge was beautiful and it was a real tent with canvas walls. The feel of a tent with luxury was quite a... More
