What an incredible experience at Rain Farm Private Game Lodge near Ballito! We stayed one night in their luxurious treetop units, and "wow" is an understatement. The accommodation is the epitome of comfort and elegance, making our stay unforgettable. From the moment we entered the gate, we were in awe of the stunning landscapes. Rolling hills, serene dams, and free-roaming wildlife create the perfect backdrop to unwind and immerse yourself in nature's beauty. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, adding a personal touch to our visit. And let’s talk about the food—it was absolutely top-notch! Every bite was a treat, and the dining experience alone is worth the visit. Rain Farm isn’t just for overnight guests; day visitors can also enjoy their beautiful pool, cozy restaurant, and well-stocked bar. It’s a fantastic spot for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I highly recommend Rain Farm to any nature enthusiast or anyone seeking a peaceful retreat. I’m already planning my next visit—this place is a must-see!

My hubby and I had the pleasure of staying at Rain farm game lodge for out anniversary. We stayed in a tree top unit. The staff were professional and friendly. The unit had all the amenities needed. Big bed, ample clothing space, beautiful bathroom. Stunning view. The food, which was included, was delicious. We had a lovely suprise when we opened the fridge and had a plate with brownies on with happy anniversary written on it ,in chocolate . Aaaand, rose petals on the bed.Thank you for an awesome stay.

I will never recommend Rain Farm Lodge to anyone. It is bat infested and even had a sign on the wall warning if bats enter the room how to remove them. My hubby and I booked for our anniversary. The food was soaked in fresh cream. As soon as we entered our room there were 4 bats flying around. A window was left open upon arrival and this was after 8pm I was terrified and locked myself in the bathroom. We left and didn't stay the night but were refused a refund. There were spiders crawling in the bed under the covers. The manager refused to grant even half of what we paid which was R3000 for 1 night. We were told that if we called them which we did they would have removed the bate which we were not happy with. What if more came back during the night? There definitely have an issue with bats as they had a sign in the room warning of this. Rain farm please address your bat issues. People can't be sleeping overnight with bats flying above their heads. And at least half of our money should have been refunded as we only spent 10 min in the room. We didn't even go for the game drive or stay for breakfast

Rain farm is beautiful, friendly staff and a peaceful atmosphere. Food could have had more selections but overall a fun and exciting gateway. If you scared of snakes and bats suggest don't book in a hatched roof house and they came through the roofs especially when it's hot even though we had Aircon. Rain farm tried to accommodate all your needs if they can which was amazing

The service was a 5 star. I can recommend the lodge for self service.The staff is friendly. However I did not enjoy nain food that was served for dinner. Fish is not tasty I can suggest that they change type of the fish.

My wife and I finally got a night away from our kids and we decided to go to the Rain Farm. Upon arrival we had a nice welcoming followed by a sensational massage. From there we had lunch which was spectacular. There chef is amazing all three meals we ate, lunch, dinner and breakfast by far exceeded expectation and I would highly recommend getting a cocktail from the very friendly barmen.
