Jozini Guesthouse, hotel in Pongola Game Reserve

Located in Jozini in the KwaZulu-Natal region, Jozini Guesthouse features a garden. Boasting full-day security, this property also provides guests with a barbecue.

We didn't wait for breakfast, but there were resources for us to make ourselves feel at home by making coffee before we go. We left very early because we were using a public transport. Very neat property inside-out and spacious. Aircon; fridge; kettle are fully operational and it's nice; cool and quiet in your property.

    The drive through the reserve was amazing- we saw a lot of animals. The tent was great, the hot tub was immediately lit by a worker and we were helped immediately with all our needs. The stay was great.

    We never got to the place as it is advertised as a "Pongola" establishment and it is not near Pongola - it's 30 kms outside in the bundu according to the police in Pongola. This is one of the bookings we'd like to forget. We do not neceassarily blame the property but we blame Booking not to ensure that place is in the town we booked. Booking is just making money, whichever way. If a booker makes a mistake, it's his problem; if a property makes a mistake, it's their problem; if Booking makes a mistake, it's my problem....which is bulldust!! IF YOU ADVERTISE PLACES TO STAY YOU SHOULD HAVE STAYED THERE BEFORE SO THAT YOU CAN VOUCH FOR EVERY DETAIL. NO, BOOKING.COM JUST TAKES THE EASY WAY AND PUT ALL THE BLAME ON THE BOOKER AND THE PLACE!!! It's advertising is questionable in many countries! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT. I'VE BOOKED MANY PLACES THROUGH BOOKING.COM over many years of travelling BUT THIS is THE LAST! PLEASE TAKE NOTE THAT apparantly THEY HAVE A MONOPOLY WITH BOOKINGS THROUGH MANY OTHER UNSUSSPECTED WEBSITES..... IS THIS ETHICAL?............I DON'T THINK SO. BOOKING WILL FALL AND IT'S NEAR.

    An abundance of wildlife with great self drives. We spent every day on the dam and saw the most amazing game with an especially large group of elephants who were very entertaining to watch as they played in the water with their young.

    Great Tigger fishing and great game viewing from the fishing boat. The guide has a good knowledge of the lake and the reserve and even did a little detour when taking us back to show the family the Rhino.
