So much potential
Unfortunately the renovation spoilt our stay. It clearly stated on the web site renovations were completed. It indicates wifi available in rooms...it was not. When we asked the receptionist she was surprised and said she would send someone to sort it out. My husband had a conference call at 1am....never got assistance. The door to cabin didn't fit the frame. Bathrooms desperate for up grade. Staff in dining room great and food was very nice. Guide Lucky very friendly. Would we go back...not likely.stunning setting though.

Best kept secret on Lake St. Lucia
The Lodge setting was World Class, we will return. Winter on Lake St. Lucia at 25 degree's with no humidity, perfect. We will return for the tranquility, comfort and top class service.
