Pinging this thread to see if anyone has been to any of the lodges in recent/COVID times, with SA opening back up recently. We were forced to postpone our plans from summer 2020 to what will be a summer 2022 trip now, I couldn't be more excited.
Changing the original plans though, now deciding between Lion Sands River Lodge and Ulusaba (Rock/Safari?) In addition to a couple nights higher north at (not luxury) Shindzela.
