The property is stunning and the game reserve phenomenal! We loved the staff and how friendly they were to us. Only two things we didn’t like was the food, we felt it very average and the attention to detail. ie serving salmon to us both when I said I didn’t eat fish. Otherwise it was amazing, the game drives, rhino dehorning and spa were the highlights, incredible!!

excellent and luxurious stay
Excellent game lodge in a private reserve. A real treat of a place to stay.
Staff are excellent; always there to assist but without being in your face.
The 2 game drives are brilliant and led by knowledgable guides who clearly care for the animals and love what their work, (but who wouldn’t!)
Food and drink are both of a high standard. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, even afternoon tea are all delicious.
Rooms are arranged as 8 (I think) cottages, all well spaced apart, generous in size and luxurious.
Different activities available during the middle of the day, ranging from animal watching from the hide at a nearby watering hole, to relaxing with a drink in your room or the communal lounge. If you want to pay a little extra then you can get an ‘elephant education’ at a local community, or a pampering session at the on site spa.
This place really was everything we hoped for and more. I would definitely return, ...just as soon as I can afford it again, but most likely a once in a lifetime experience unfortunately.

We loved everything about our stay at Leopard Mountain. The view from the room was stunning, and the room itself was spotless and had everything we could possibly need. The staff were incredible - so friendly and welcoming. Overall the luxurious comfort of the lodge combined with the great game drives and a visit to the spa made for a perfect break.

Sehr schöne Lodge in einem private Game Reserve.
Haben 2 tolle Tage mit vielen Impressionen dort verbracht. Traumhafte Lage an einem Berg mit sensationellem Ausblick. Sehr freundliches und professionelles Personal inkl. Ranger. Insgesamt gibt es nur 8 Chalets mit schöner Terrasse und eigenem kl. Tauchbecken zum abkühlen mit einem traumhaften Blick in die Natur.

Prachtige locatie met adembenemend panorama.
Je wordt verwacht rond de middag. Je krijgt dan een picnic mand aangeboden ( die je zelf kan laten vullen naar wens). Je kan hiervan genieten op het dek of indien je kamer klaar is, vanuit het terras op je kamer/lodge.
Na de tea-time ( 14U30) een geweldige game drive meegemaakt over het uitgestrekte domein.
Na een verfrissende douche een gezellig/romantisch diner rond het kampvuur met het overenthousiaste zingende personeel.
Bedankt voor deze geweldige ervaring :-)
Tip : probeer min. 2 nachten te blijven, zo kan je genieten van de lodge. Laat de prijs je niet beïnvloeden, je krijgt hier inmiddels veel voor terug ( zowel diner als 2 game drives)

Luxury private game lodge without ludicrous prices
Our stone cottage with private terrace, plunge pool and breathtaking views of the valley was fabulous. The game rangers were all quite knowledgeable and we did have some exciting viewings though this didn't have quite the same feel as the big games parks.Don't expect to see elephants! The food was average.

Fantastic Experience
This was mine and my wife's first trip to SA and what a way to spend our first 3 nights. Everything, from checking-in to checking-out was first class. All the staff were very friendly and the lodge had a family feel about it. The Safari trips were amazing, the first morning a little quiet, but we were spoilt on latter trips. Highlights being a meeting of a black and white Rhino, being stalked by a lioness (we were safe!) and witnessing a failed kill by the same lion. We saw many other things and was very well looked after by our Ranger Aldran

The perfect stay
It's the little things that sets Leopard Mountain aside. Most game lodges will treat you like royalty, but Leopard Mountain goes the extra mile to ensure you are happy: from providing you with conplimentary take away picnic baskets on the day you leave to walking you to your room at night they thought of everything. The experience is enhanced by only having a small group stay, thus you get to know others and your guide can tailor the drive to your needs. Tip: get Alden as your Ranger.

Fantastique
En un mot : magnifique. Très beau lodge, des chambres très belles avec piscine privée et vue imprenable sur le bush, le service est parfait, la cuisinière excellente. Pour les game : des regrets que les rangers ne s'aventurent pas dans le bush les animaux restent donc assez loin de nous (au Kruger on entrait tout le temps dedans), cependant nous avons pu voir lions, guepards, elephant, girafes, etc...
Petite remarque : les boissons sont comprises seuelemnt durant les games, et on vous facture celle du repas du soir sans jamais nous prevenir tout en poussant à la consomation. Pas très fair-play... bon point tout de même, après une remarque, l'établissement à réaliser un geste commercial et nous les prendra en charge.
A mon avis le meilleur rapport qualité prix d'afrique du Sud, je conseil au petit budget qui veulent faire un joli safari et être traiter comme des rois.
PS : Commentaire de quelqu'un qui est à son 10e safari à travers l'afrique.

Veel te duur en overgewaardeerd!!
We hadden erg veel van dit hotel verwacht door de recensies op Tripadvisor. Echter kwamen we bedrogen uit. Het eten was ronduit slecht. Je krijgt een menu waarop staat wat je wilt eten die avond. Vind ik al vervelend, omdat ik 's ochtends nog niet weet wat ik 's avonds wil eten. Het eten was ook nog slecht bereid (beide avonden). Visfilet die met een laagje eromheen gebakken was maar waarbij de graat nog in de vis zat. Biefstuk tot twee keer toe veel te droog gebakken, terwijl ze het niet eens zijn komen vragen. Na er iets van gezegd te hebben was hij weer veel te doorbakken. Manager gaf ons daar ook gelijk in. 'S ochtends een matig ontbijt wat niet wordt aangevuld. 'S middags krijg je een picknickmand en ook dat moet je die ochtend doorgeven. Er zit bijna geen brood in de mand. Bovendien zaten er veel dingen in die niet lekker waren of wij niet eten. Dit probleem hadden meerdere gasten. Wat ook erg vervelend was, was de rit naar de lodge toe. Het is een erg lange, zanderige weg met veel hobbels en stenen. Wat niet bevoordelijk is voor je (huur)auto. Ze hadden op z'n minst een pick-up kunnen regelen vanuit het hotel. Ook ligt het park niet op Hluhluwe, wat wel gezegd werd. En er zit heel weinig wild. Na vier drives nog steeds geen Olifant en Buffel gezien. Oja, avondeten en ontbijt is "gezamelijk".
Het uitzicht daarentegen was wel heel mooi. Ook de kamers zijn ruim van opzet.
Kortom veel te duur voor wat ze bieden en zeker geen vier sterren waar

I cannot say enough about this place. Just a sublime experience for my girlfriend and me. I work at a senior level in the hospitality industry, and have traveled the world. Leopard Mountain Lodge is probably in my top 3 hotels/lodges for the combination of service, facilities, food, and experience. Cannot recommend enough.
