Our weekend stay at Naka Lodge in spring 2024 was magical. From the warm welcome by the friendly staff to the stunning blend of modern design and natural beauty, everything was exceptional. Our room was elegantly appointed, spotless, and had every amenity we could wish for.

We chose four unforgettable experiences: a sunset game drive led by the knowledgeable Danny; a thrilling beekeeping adventure where we harvested our own honey; the Secrets of Tracking, testing our skills with animal trails; and a mesmerising stargazing session under vast, clear skies.

The Naka team went above and beyond, making us feel like royalty while treating us like family. By the end, Naka Lodge had left an indelible mark on our hearts, and we’re already counting down the days until we return.

We had an unforgettable stay at Naka Lodge! From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable, with every need attended to by the warm and friendly staff. The food was delicious, and the highlight was the magical bush dinner under the stars, which felt truly special.

The lodge itself offers fantastic amenities, luxurious rooms, a beautiful pool, and serene surroundings that make you feel at one with nature.

Our game drives were a real highlight. The deep knowledge of the wildlife and the ecosystem, combined with their passion for conservation, made every drive a fascinating experience.

Naka Lodge offers a perfect balance of luxury and adventure—we can’t recommend it enough!

Our stay at Naka Lodge was super special. They were the last 2 days of our honeymoon trip and the people there made us feel 100% at home. Thank you for that. Such a beautiful lodge in a gorgeous location.  Will definitely come back again
