Warthogs is great, I’m writing this review during my return stay. If you love relaxing and watching game, you’ll love the place. My wife and I stayed in the two person en suite tents. It is also convenient that food and drink is available too. Everyone, owners and all staff extremely friendly and helpful.

Wayne and Louisa were very welcoming and the tent we stayed in was spotless, fresh and clean. The view over the Kariba and the animals walking in front of the property was very relaxing and beautiful

The proprietress was kind and helpful. The food prepared by the cook was disastrous and has led to frequent use of the toilet. The midnight pool parties provided for sleepless nights.

Hi Anonymous. So sorry to hear of your upset stomach...it is the first time we have come across this, but i will look into it all the same. What did you eat and was it day r night time? It was lso extremely hot last week....dehydration can cause tummy upsets...you need to drink at least 4-5 litres of water. The midnight party was unacceptable. This shall be dealt with immediately.

Hi. Thanks for the feedback. We are continuing our upgrade each month to include new safari tents. The wildlife has been wonderful this year with lots of variety. The rate US$: ZWL$ keeps moving, but this is making it cheaper for visitor at the restaurant as food prices are not moving as fast as the rate. We hope to see you again soon!

Hi, sorry for the late response...I've been on the road for a few days. I'm pleased the elephants and hippos showed their face for you. I hope you didn't drink all the beer!! Im glad you enjoyed.
