Wow - didn’t disappoint. Fantastic hosts and staff. Room was beautiful and being able to watch animals right outside was so entertaining I had to keep putting my book down! Wonderful food, plenty of it- and accommodating on diet requirements. Wonderful to have a Boma night too. Brilliant safari guide - Given. Very knowledgeable. Made all guests feel like part of a family and we had great fun. Elephants, monkeys and hyenas all on your doorstep! Thought not having tea and coffee and WiFi in rooms would be an issue for us but actually it meant we all socialised in the main lounge, veranda and pool area making it a much better visit.

We loved the large shared living space where we could spend time during the day together as a whole family, while the bedrooms were individually placed for some more privacy and quite for those afternoon naps. The viewing deck and waterhole was perfect with some game viewing action throughout the day. The house was very well equipped and we saw the big five during our stay. The place was even beter than the photos

Chef-kok Riri made the best food! From breakfast to dinner: 10/10. Even when we went out they prepacked a lunch for us which was yummy! The hosts Victoria and Paul were very kind, flexible and helpful and provided us with everything we needed. The location was so perfect and so peaceful with a beautiful garden. Just loved it. Also the room was very nice (with airconditioning yes!)

Fantastic trackers Themba, Polite and Life who were like magicians conjuring animals from the bush and found us the big5 and more. The camp is very small with just 6 tents which gives it a nice relaxed atmosphere, and the other guests were all lovely. Our tent (no3/Elephant Shrew) was in front of a watering hole which had elephants visiting every day.

I had a really beautiful stay at the lodge. As a solo traveller, Milima did an excellent job to make sure I had everything I needed and could access all opportunities. Thomas, one of the rangers, was incredible. He's super knowledgable and just a delightful human. I hope to return again!

My husband and I spent 3 amazing days there. The place and our room were so quiet and peaceful, all the meals were perfect and also loved our routine there. Our game drive guide Nial was amazing, friendly and gave us full of information about the animals we found, gave us space to take as many photos as we wanted. We also loved Audrey, she was so kind and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable. The whole staff truly made a huge different in our stay at Muweti. Thank you all!

We were the only guests, and were given a free upgrade to the chalet with private pool. The host and gardener were also very kind and helpful. We greatly enjoyed spotting smaller wildlife from the hide out during the sunset and sunrise, and the peace and quiet of the stay. During the night we were visited by a honey badger twice that tried to get into the cupboards and fridge, some excitement for sure!

Amazing game drives given by Paul from Maninghi Lodge.

Amazing game drives given by Paul from Maninghi Lodge. He is the most knowledgable guide we have ever had. His passion and love for the bush is infectious! We thoroughly enjoyed our drives with him, and he was a large part of what made our stay so great!

The games were wonderful, a fantastic experience!

The games were wonderful, a fantastic experience! The guide and driver were super friendly and helpful. There was a break for a snack during the game. Since it gets cold in the morning, there were blankets and hot water bottles to keep us warm. It was incredible!!!
