Clifftop Exclusive Safari Hideaway

This place in Welgonvendon Private game reserve was recommended by my travel agent. My friend and I had had just done 2 weeks cycling in the Drakensberg mountains and Kruger for 2 days and we wanted some luxury. We were not disappointed.. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel like royalty. Attention to detail with cool lemongrass cloths when returning from game drives and everything you could possible want before you even know you want it! We had special menus done for us because we were vegan , with our own menus and the food was absolutely wonderful. The individual lodges are very private with plunge pools, outdoor showers and so tasteful dine inside....literally everything you could need is thought of .Cannot recommend the place the food and the staff enough. Wouldn't hesitate to return. Perfect for real romantics and foodies.

This is the best experience of lots of amazing experiences we have had. It was a bucket list experience for my wife so a lot to live up to, however, not only did it meet our expectations it certainly went above and beyond. From arriving at Clifftop we were met by Steven and Gilda very charming welcoming and friendly the perfect start, despite arriving late due to hold ups we were treated to a game drive and what a start, our guide was fantastic, knowledgable and professional, we saw 3 of the big 5, Rhino, Buffalo and even though a glimpse the elusive Leopard. On our return our cases were in our room and what a location the room was fantastic, it had spectacular views of the valley. After a long drive out to Welgevonden and a Game drive we were treated to the most amazing dinner attended by the friendly genuine entertaining staff, who were on hand all through our stay, so praise must go to Nicholas, Patrick, Isaac and the rest of the team for making every meal special. The morning game drives started at 6am so bleary eyed we were met by Tyrone for our first and all subsequent drives, in line with everything at Clifftops Tyrone epitomised the professional nature, joy and desire to ensure we had an unforgettable experience, this he managed to fulfil with his knowledge and skills, he went out of his way to make sure we saw everything possible, nature being what it is we didn’t expect to be treated to so many different awe inspiring moments from Rhinos on the road blocking our way, to sunrises and sunsets full of amazing colours to Lions hunting Warthogs and a herd of Elephant that appeared to come out of nowhere along with coffee and sundowners in the bush. Thank you all at Clifftops for making it absolutely memorable.

Brilliant Safari weekend we had, the hotel staff was amazing, the hotel excellent, the views from the Villa are breathtaking. Overall a weekend my partner and I will always keep dear to our hearts. Wow wow wow
