Fantastico! Riserva naturale privata a tre ore di strada semplice da Cape town. Natura rigogliosa , lussureggiante, staff impeccabile a partire dal grande Hugent e da Professor ,ma la cosa più bella sono le camere (immerse nella natura ,arredate con gusto, grandissime dotate di tutti i comfort) e la cucina (che propone piatti fatti a dovere). Imperdibile. A private nature reserve just three hours from Cape Town by easy road. Lush, verdant nature, impeccable staff, starting with the great Hugent and Professor, but the best things are the rooms (surrounded by nature, tastefully furnished, spacious, and equipped with every comfort) and the cuisine (which serves expertly prepared dishes). Unmissable. ♥️

By far the best place we have ever stayed! Mont eco game reserve was by far the best, friendliest and most exquisite place we have ever stayed on all levels. The game drives were excellent, the food was divine and the accommodation was gorgeous. But over all, the staff really made the stay special. The care and attention given by them was unmatched. Special shout outs to Nugent, Terence, Austin and Pauline as they were all sublime throughout our stay. I hope we will be able to visit again in the future, it was absolutely fantastic.

Ein unbeschreibliches Erlebnis Wir waren das erste Mal überhaupt in Afrika, und hatten somit keinerlei Vorstellung was uns erwartet. Den Geburtstag unseres Sohnes wollten wir zu Viert in der Lodge feiern. Was auch wunderbar funktionierte. Überrascht wurde unser Sohn mit einer Flasche Sekt, einer Torte und einem Ständchen von der Crew. Es waren wunderschöne zwei Tage, die wir in der Mont Eco Lodge verbracht haben mit tollem Essen und einem exzellenten Service. Nicht zu vergessen die tollen Safaris mit Terence, unserem Guide. Besonders hat mir die absolute Ruhe in der Karoo gefallen, außer natürlich den Tieren in freier Wildbahn.

Einzigartig! Ein afrikanischer Traum! Wir können gar nicht in Worte fassen, wie unbeschreiblich einzigartig dieser Aufenthalt war. Von der Begrüßung bis zum Abschied, einfach wunderbar. Die Mitarbeiter waren alle ausgesprochen freundlich, hilfsbereit und warmherzig. Die Zimmer großzügig und luxuriös. Das Essen hervorragend. Leider mussten wir nach 2 Tagen wieder abreisen. Unser ganz besonderer Dank geht an TK, der unsere Game Drives und unseren Bush Walk mit seinem Wissen und seiner sympathischen Art zu einem weiteren besonderen Erlebnis in Mont Eco gemacht hat.

Einmalig Ein tolles Erlebnis. Schon bei unserer Ankunft wurden wir sehr nett empfangen. „Chief“ Nugent hat mit seinem Humor und seiner Gastfreundlichkeit zu einem für uns runden Aufenthalt beigetragen. Die Unterkünfte sind traumhaft und mit viel Liebe zum Detail ausgestattet. Unser Highlight war unser Guide „Professor“, der uns mit seiner Erfahrung und seinem Humor ein unvergessliches Erlebnis bereitet hat. Großartig!

Fabulous Experience! Mont Eco is a very special Safari experience. The staff is superb: Koos our manager, Nugent the client specialist, Emily our food specialist and TK our incredible Safari Guide plus the many other people there that make Mont Eco an incredibly welcoming, delicious and luxurious experience. Most of all having our first Safari experience there was amazing. Only 3 hours from Cape Town but you are in another world. 18,000 acres but only 14 guests at a time. And only two jeeps out daily. The many animals including the Big 5 and thousands of others roam in their natural habitat happily and easily with no threat from humans. Our guide, TK, is a brilliant, experienced and accomplished Safari guide and beyond that an animal whisperer. He understands how to track the animals and then how to observe them without disturbing them. We went out on 4 safaris with him while we stayed at the beautiful accommodations and each time was more exciting than the last. I recommend very strongly if you are looking for a wonderful base camp plus safari where the animals are incredibly beautiful in their perfect, undisturbed natural surroundings.

Best birthday My husband and I visited for my birthday. What an amazing experience. The staff were all super friendly and helpful, no request is ever to big or small. Off the beaten path. What an experience. Would highly recommend!

A Rehabilitated Conservation Gem

“But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you;

or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish in the sea inform you.

Which of all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this?

In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.”
