"All started that I followed THE HERD on Instagram 6 Years ago and Watched all the cute Videos and Reports of the Little pink Elephant Khanyisa. Was Keen to See her live and visit her Elephant family. We met the owner of Jabulani accidently and always said we will visit the lodge and get to know her Little Paradise in the Kapama Reserve. We booked Short notice and were very surprised by the warm Welcome, the super nice staff (Ruan, AM, Jeffrey, Roos, Nathan, Kurt, Richman, Chefs in the Kitchen, housekeepers, Gardener, SPA Ladies, Tiger, Manuel and all the Rest of the whole Lodge & THE HERD Team), the amazing Environment, the exceptional food and Wine Selection, the cosy room, the cleanness and thanks god not modern and not cold and Sleek style of the lodge as You have it often those Days, but takes completely Away the African Spirit and feeling attached to the Nature. And last but Not least the magic encounter with THE HERD itself. It was magic! Even Khanyisa isnt a baby anymore it was a Happening to See her & her family and watching them taking a bath, going home at Sunset and being able to get close but not too Close to them and Feed a few of the Giants from Simbabwe and Touch their Trunks and feel their air blowing into your Face! It was magic and touched my Sole! Thank You JABULANI & THE HERD Team we will Come back and See You hopefully all again!"

"An absolutely amazing experience. The staff are constantly looking to make guest experiences as perfect as possible. Be prepared to be spoilt as Jabulami sets standards way above anywhere else you will experience. Our guide, Kayla, was amazing and whatever we wanted to see she somehow tracked them and there they were for unforgettable pictures. We saw the big 5 and so much more. The food is amazing. Highly recommended."

"If ever I were royalty, then my stay at Jabulani Safari is exactly how I imagine I would be treated. From the moment we stepped out of the vehicle, we were greeted with cold, refreshing drinks, chilled washcloths, and the warmest, most attentive staff. The hospitality was exceptional from the very first second. Even the airport pickup was handled with the utmost care and friendliness. On our drive to the lodge, we were taken through the reserve and spotted some beautiful game — the perfect start to our unforgettable stay. Our rooms were absolutely breathtaking. The attention to detail was extraordinary, and you can truly feel the thought behind every element. They catered for everything, including lactose‑intolerant milk waiting for us in the bar fridge — such a considerate touch that made us feel genuinely cared for. The cuisine was simply outstanding. Every meal was a masterpiece. It’s easy to understand why they hold Relais & Châteaux status and a 2‑Michelin‑star rating. Personally, I would give them five stars without hesitation! And the elephant experience… wow. It was truly a once‑in‑a‑lifetime moment — emotional, humbling, and something I will carry with me forever. Being so close to these gentle giants was an absolute highlight of our stay. Jabulani Safari is more than a destination; it’s an experience of a lifetime. I cannot recommend it highly enough."

"I had the most wonderful experience in the bush with 5 star luxury and still the best bush feeling. The rooms were amazing. I loved my own splash pool. The food was excellent and the people did their best to make me comfortable. I loved it that they do care a lot about the elephants, the wildlife and the environment."

"3 days on honeymoon, absolutely amazing place. They go above and beyond to exceed all your expectations with the drives, the meals, and the service. Beyond fun and romantic. Definitely one of the best experiences of our lives."
