Reviews

  • "The game and hippo tours"

    24 November 2021

    "Overall Ndiza Lodge was not bad, however we booked a cabana with garden views and we got a cabana with driveway and parking lot views, together with guests arriving at night with blaring music and other guests partying loudly well into the night. The staff were friendly and well-trained.However the lodge is definitely not 4 stars - there is a lot of maintenance needed : cracked toilet cistern and tiles, mouldy beams in the lodge breakfast area etc etc. Fine for a few nights' stay if you are out all day, but not if you are planning on staying home for a day."

  • "Superb accommodation"

  • "Can't say"

    23 June 2018

    "Very tired, old and not too clean. Our unit hardly ever saw the sun, just the 2nd bedroom. The bed was terrible. Don't know why they have 4 stars, we left a day early."

  • "Small rooms and cockroach"

    28 April 2015

    "In Ndiza Cabanas (selfcatering) we booked two rooms for five people. For a weekend as we didi it, it is okay, but not more than okay. There was only a small table with four chairs only, the bathroom small and overdue to be revamped. Bedroom were nice and clean, but kitchen and bathroom occupied by insects like ants and even cockroaches.<br />Both pools were in a good conditions, nice outdoor facilities like a wooden deck which can be used as an outlook to the ocean and wetlands.<br />"

    05 September 2013

    "As a family of 5 we had a very pleasant stay at Ndiza (cabana) for several nights. Very nice people, great location and great ocean and estuary views. Clean. The pictures here don't do right to the place, it is much, much nicer in real life. I would book it again if I had the choice."

  • "Excellent"

    01 August 2013

    "Beautiful, pleasant, clean and well maintained place with good services, which provides a good basis for activities in and around St Lucia. Excellent view and nice details. The first place out of five (!) we stayed in St Lucia that does not smell due to moisty conditions! Certainly we will be back during our next visit to St. Lucia!"

    24 August 2011

    "This was truly the best service we have ever experienced, in the most heavenly setting. This is a place we would like to return to year after year. We spent our honeymoon here and Amanda and her team made it very special for us. She even prepared a special dinner for two on our last night, which was incredible. We are very grateful for their care and efforts. The room was comfortable and spacious, the furnishings luxurious and the breakfasts excellent. They allowed us to use their braai facilities. You can see the beach from the wooden deck where breakfast is served. Truly beautiful. We'll be back."
