"Love the nice fishing spots. The one ambition block closest to the fishing spots never seems to have warm water. This was our fourth visit and definitely not our last. Establishment response: Hi Chantelle, Thanks for your great review on Safari Now we appreciate it. I see you have a comment about the warm water at the Vinknes ablution facilities. I would like to explain the reason for it The reason is that because of winter, we do not get as much visitors as during Summer months, and therefore we only keep the ablution blocks at the swimming pools geysers on It also has solar geysers that help us save on electricity. The ablution block at the Vinkneste use a donkey geyser to heat up the water and use the equivalent electricity as SIX normal geysers, so it is really very expensive to run it for a weekend. We are planning to also install solar geysers at the other ablution block as soon as possible. I think you perhaps miss it, but there is a note at all ablution blocks and at the reception that state that only the ablution block at the swimming pool has hot water and that the other block only has cold water. We are looking forward to your next visit and thanks for supporting us for so long! Kind regards, Dimalachite team"
