“DISAPPOINTED”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Lovely setting and friendly staff. Unfortunately I agreed with Offemar. The room was large and dingy, very poor lighting. I can see what theme they are trying to portray but the whole decoration makes it very dark and uninviting. The bathroom was large and equipped, I spent more time in there then in the bedroom. Unfortunately it had been raining when we arrived and it made the whole place more dark and dismal.
St Lucia is a lovely place and the Estuary trip is great. We also booked to go to visit a Zulu Village from here and it was excellent. Took you into the world of the Zulu - not commercialised either. Worth a trip.

Stayed September 2011, travelled as a couple

people found this review helpful

Starting our South Africa Trip in Johannisburg to Krüger National Park via Swasiland to Sodwana Bay ending in St. Lucia we stayed the last days at Lidiko Lodge in St. Lucia. By entering this Lodge, you will instandly see, that this is a place, where people work who have only ONE Goal: Make residents happy !!!
The very tasteful arangement und more tha friendly and helpful people at Lidiko Lodge makes it a real place of pleasure.
We will visit again, even if its only for short "hello" and an "espresso"
Thank you so much for staying with you. THE ORTLIEB`s from Germany

“Avoid room 16”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 August 2011

We were in room 16. It is big but dark and empty. The windows were small and had no view at all. The room was very big but had no place to sit. Breakfast was fine, the people nice. I can't judge on the other rooms.

“great spot to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 July 2011

We were completely delighted with our stay at Lidiko Lodge and would recommend it to anyone. This family owned lodge is a relaxing, delightful spot to use as your base while you explore St Lucia and the wetlands. The rooms are comfortable (although the mattresses are definitely firm and short (if you are over 5' 5") and nicely done. It is a safe and relaxing place to stay. The staff are very helpful and quickly responsive. The family that owns the lodge is very helpful at arranging tours and advising guests about activities. The breakfasts are absolutely delicious! I would definitely go back if I am ever in that part of the world again
