"The lodge is lovely with very attentive staff. The cat sanctuary is a must visit and trips to Hluhluwe was easy to organise. It is an easy drive to St Lucia and to Bayete to see the elephant education demonstration which is a must-do.
Be aware that there is very little around there so likely you will need to eat dinner at the lodge. The foods is quite plain with not much choice. Also be aware that the rooms have no TVs.
I would recommend the Lodge for its position and the attentive staff."
"It was very nice staying here! We’ve had a long way before arrival but ended up getting a bigger room and some nice recommendation's for dinner - very lovely!

"Leopard Walk Lodge: A Perfect African Retreat
After a demanding business trip from the USA, Leopard Walk Lodge was the ideal place to unwind before my 30-hour flight home. With a small number of luxury lodges, each designed for complete privacy, it offers a serene escape in the heart of the African bush. The accommodations are beautifully furnished with all the amenities you could need, including excellent WiFi. However, it’s the stillness of the wilderness that truly soothes the soul, inviting...
"When I arrived at the hotel with the confirmation, the owner told me that he had received no reservation from Hotels.Com and had no room for my party. I had to borrow money to stay at a more expensive hotel. "
"The a.c was not very good. But it wasnt suuuper hot. Just not cool. The room was very cute and homey. There was a drought so water pressure wasnt great."

The breakfast is really great.

"We stayed 6 nights in a deluxe room. The room was comfortable but not quite what I expected for deluxe. It was comfortable and clean.
The staff are very friendly and helpful and the breakfasts were the best we had on this trip to KZN. The outside area is very pretty and we enjoyed having our breakfasts outside."

"My wife and I recently spent a night at Leopard Tree Lodge in St Lucia, and it was absolutely wonderful! From the warm welcome to the peaceful atmosphere, everything exceeded our expectations.
What We Loved:
✅ Beautiful Setting – The lodge is nestled in a serene, natural environment, with lush greenery and a relaxing vibe. Perfect for couples!
✅ Comfortable & Clean Room – Our accommodation was spacious, tastefully decorated, and spotlessly clean. The bed was very comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep.
✅ Friendly Staff – The team was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home.
✅ Great Location – Close enough to St Lucia’s attractions (like the estuary and restaurants) while still feeling secluded.
Highlights:
The tranquil ambiance—perfect for unwinding.
The lodge’s charming design, blending nature with comfort.
We only wish we could have stayed longer! Highly recommend Leopard Tree Lodge for anyone visiting St Lucia—whether for a romantic getaway or a peaceful retreat. We’ll definitely be back!"

The staff’s hospitality was exceptional. From the flawless check-in and check-out process to their warm Zulu smiles, they made me feel like family. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and their attention to detail ensured every need was met effortlessly.
The food was outstanding, with both breakfast and dinner showcasing home-cooked quality and local flavors. Service during meals was attentive yet unobtrusive, adding to the overall sense of comfort.
Whether relaxing on my private deck or exploring the nearby paths, I was immersed in the peaceful beauty of the bush. Watching the sky shift at sunrise and sunset was magical, reinforcing the lodge’s calming atmosphere.
Leopard Walk Lodge offers the perfect combination of luxury, privacy, and connection with nature. For anyone seeking a true escape, it’s a place to reset, recharge, and leave feeling refreshed and ready for what’s next."
