My
experience
at
La'WiiDA
Lodge
was
overall
positive,
earning
it
a
4
out
of
5
rating.
We
attended
one
of
Gretha
Wiid's
wedding
sessions
at
the
lodge,
which
is
primarily
set
up
for
conferences
with
breakout
sessions.
While
the
conference
kept
us
busy
and
limited
our
exploration
time,
we
did
notice
the
lodge's
amenities.
Unfortunately,
the
weather
didn't
permit
us
to
use
the
swimming
pool
during
our
visit.
Our
sleeping
chalet
(#26)
was
comfortable,
featuring
a
spacious
shower
with
gas-heated
water,
though
no
bath.
The
chalet
included
a
well-equipped
bathroom
with
soap
and
towels
provided.
The
king-size
bed
was
comfortable,
and
the
room
had
all
the
expected
amenities,
including
bed
lights.
The
lack
of
an
air
conditioning
unit
in
our
chalet
was
a
minor
drawback.
The
chalet's
positioning
allowed
us
to
enjoy
views
of
the
bush,
increasing
the
chances
of
spotting
wildlife
like
deer.
The
lodge,
both
inside
and
outside,
is
well-maintained.
Unfortunately,
there
is
no
covered
parking
for
cars.
Conference
amenities
are
good,
with
well-maintained
and
air-conditioned
facilities.
The
restaurant
pleasantly
surprised
us
with
exciting
and
delicious
food,
deviating
from
the
typical
mundane
offerings.
Breakfast
was
also
a
satisfying
experience.
The
bar
offered
a
variety
of
drinks,
and
complimentary
filter
coffee
was
available
on
tap.
The
service
was
commendable,
with
our
rooms
being
cleaned,
and
beds
made
daily
throughout
our
stay.
However,
it's
worth
noting
that
the
lodge's
proximity
to
the
R511
road
means
that,
at
times,
the
sound
of
passing
trucks
can
be
heard,
which
may
be
a
consideration
for
those
seeking
a
quieter
retreat.
We
participated
in
a
late
afternoon
game
drive,
and
despite
its
short
duration,
it
was
incredibly
rewarding.
Feeding
zebras
bread
and
experiencing
them
eating
from
our
hands
was
a
highlight.
In
summary,
La'WiiDA
Lodge
provided
a
good
experience
with
comfortable
accommodation,
excellent
food,
enjoyable
activities,
and
commendable
service.
While
there
were
minor
drawbacks,
such
as
the
proximity
to
the
road,
the
overall
experience
was
pleasing,
and
I
would
recommend
it
for
a
relaxing
getaway.
