We were visiting a family member who lives in Eswatini and wanted to find a property that had separate bedrooms, a kitchen and a living room that is centrally situated in the country so we chose Benka. We arrived at night and had a bit of trouble finding the place at first because it is situated across a one-lane bridge and the road is dirt for a little less than a kilometer. Perfect central location to get everywhere in the country, beautiful grounds and wonderful and responsive owners. They are almost finished building a pool that will really be nice for future guests.

We had a fantastic stay at Benka Lifestyle. The space was large and stylish, with comfortable beds and plenty of room. Our hosts were friendly and helpful, making sure that we were comfortable. We were served a delicious breakfast every morning by the friendly staff, and during the morning and evening we relaxed outside, watching the peacocks and enjoying the sunset. I was able to go for a jog every morning around the farm and adjacent game reserve. It was a short drive into town for excursions and dinner. We would definitely stay at Benka again!

Séjour très déplaisant
lli sans entretien, le personnel est serviable mais ne parle pas anglais. Il nous a été volé 4000 rands dans la chambre durant une de nos absences. Le réceptionniste n’a pas été compréhensif sur cet acte. Dommage, la vue est très belle.

Un bien et du moins bien
Un rafraîchissement est à prévoir. L'environnement est très agréable. Ne pas prendre les petits dejeuners : peu de choses et pas très bon. Mais notre voiture à été nettoyée gracieusement et spontanément.
