    It's ok though the mall closes too early even on holidays. Richards Bay is clean but when you at the open parking's of the Boardway by Bluff meat entrance, it's super untidy it's like you have moved to a different place all together. It's a little bit scarry to park and leave your car there.

    The Canfields were very breath taking if you love nature. Empangeni Mall has almost every shop that you need. Tasted the new famous chicken restaurant called Pedro. Everything is close to each other. I mean ATMs, restaurants, gas stations and food shopping centers.

    Was a great adventure, Lodge facilities very peaceful and relaxing overlooking the water hole. Homely food in the restaurant. Roads need attention, but am sure will improve with time. Communal kitchen and braai areas had everything needed. Beautiful scenery, sunrises and sunsets.

    Unfortunately, the roads to Gooderson Natal Spa are terrible, potholes all along the route forcing the trip to be much longer than expected. Do not travel on these roads with cars with lowered suspension and definitely stay off these roads after dusk or in rainy conditions. For the amount of time spent travelling from Jhb to Paulpietersburg, we could have driven to Durban in less time and with far better road conditions. Thankfully we do not have small children as this would have a been an even longer road trip!

    Mkuze is the best place to stay if you want to visit the Mkuze Game Reserve. We saw plenty at the two hides - herds of wildebeest, impala and nyala and plenty of birds. It's about 60 km to the Memorial Gate entrance to the Imfolozi-Hluhluwe Game Reserve - we got up early and got there as the gates opened to spend the day in the reserve. It's also worth driving up Jozini and taking a boat out on the dam. The hotel has a great offering of tours with their own guides.

    Central to a number of tourist attractions, i.e. Umfolozi National Park, St Lucia part of the iSimangaliso Wetland Park. The town is a typical bustling, vibrant rural town, traffic a bit chaotic. I was staying for business purposes, If on vacation I would have probably stayed closer to where the main tourist attractions are.

My family and I enjoyed the boat cruise and being, and we also drove to St Lucia for trip to hluhluwe to see the big five. It is not very far though it's 1 hour drive from Richard's Bay.
