You can stay it has small pol and normal restaurant if you want to do the safari twice i think its the same experience they do not track the animals, if you are lucky enough you can see them if not they will skip it, if you are looking for good safari i recommend Kruger national park (google it), i was there in April and some days were really cold. Take thick clothes with you and jacket in back bag the weather is changeable during the day and night.

Q:
Are the Baboons a problem? I am nervous about goung and wondered if the Baboons would putr off enjoying the stay
A:
We actually didn’t see any Baboons! Aquila has really tall fences to keep all of the animals in the reserve. They never get too close to the resort.

Q:
Is one night/ a day and half sufficient or is it ,worth a two night stay?
A:
I’d say that if you’re going for the game, one night would suffice. If you want to add pool & spa time - two nights would be better.
