To the wonderful Mateya team
Thank you for such exceptional hospitality and care. Mateya stands out as a magical place where one fells just at home. We felt privileged to live such an experience of life & nature with you and look forward to coming back as soon as possible. All our wishes for a wonderful 2005.
What a blessed, peaceful place you have chosen as your home- it is filled with the true African spirit, that I am lucky enough to call “my home in my heart”. The singers on New Years Eve literally brought tears to my eyes! You have all been so genuinely inspired in your chosen arts and talents, that you have made our trip so very wonderful.
Vanessa Pinto & Simon Rusk London UKTo our exceptional hosts at Mateya:
It is impossible to imagine- and we would never have been able to if we tried- a more idyllic, welcoming and unique place to start our honeymoon. You have created an unsurpassable environment which enthralls and astonishes at every turn, more special though is the dedication, attention and care that every member of the team here has made to make our stay here as memorable as it has been. We have felt at home since the moment we arrived- actually, home is going to be quite a come-down after being here.
What a wonderful couple of days. The staff, the environment, the food, all perfection. To attempt to describe the experience to one who has not seen Mateya first hand is going to be a near impossible task. I feel truly blessed to have been here. Our rangers & trackers were extremely knowledgeable every animal we searched for we seemed to find. This is truly one of the wonders of the world. I am now in love with Africa, thank you so much to all.
Steve Rhodes & Ryan BentleyThank you very much for the wonderful stay!! We really had a great time. Especially wonderful were the different game drives (real fun and adventurous), as well as the meals and very friendly staff. Hope to one day be able to visit you again.
Uschi & Kirsten Ilanga TravelWhat a privilege this has been to share this beautiful setting with you. The experience has been most memorable for me and I will share my experience with many future travelers.
