Our stay was incredible. The lodge is so beautiful and the wildlife was amazing. We saw a leopard on our very fist drive and an incredibly rare pack of wild dogs that evening (both were top of my "hope to see" list). Throughout our stay we saw many journeys of giraffes, several elephants and lions, zebras, hippos, and lots of antelope and kudu. Our room was HUGE, and I adored the large sliding glass doors and private decks at our room. The bed was large and incredibly comfortable. There were great views of the river and wildlife from our room and from the beautiful decks at the main lodge. The Lion Sands team did an especially wonderful job of celebrating my husband's birthday: leaving messages written in flowers on our bed, baking him a delicious cake, and even gifting him a book about adventures in Africa. All of the staff at Lion Sands were amazing - warm, welcoming, attentive, and knowledgeable. Our guide Pierre was especially exceptional. I was continually amazed at his deep knowledge of the animals, their tracks, and the property. On top of all that deep technical knowledge, he has the gift of exceptional hospitality. He was so easy to talk to and patient. I really appreciated the bush walk outing he took us on (and that he kept us safe from the herd of elephants we found!) - it was such a unique experience. Our butler Elliot was wonderful as well! He always greeted us with such a warm smile and made sure to point out when we could spot game right from the dining deck. And the thoughtful notes from Morgan and the lovely touches from our housekeeper (like leaving messages in flowers on our bed)... truly it was a magical stay. I would have loved to stay forever!
