This is truly like living in the wild! To be able to interact with all these wild animals was like bringing nature itself to your doorstep. The maintenance of the property and all amenities is absolutely immaculate and the love the staff shows for the animals is heartwarming.

The lights in the original room allocated ti us did not work and immediately we were taken to another room. The service, friendliness and hospitality is great. Only problem is that the chef really needs training as the food was horrible and extremely expensive for what we got. I wont book in here again!

Mein Freund und ich waren zwei Nächte dort. Hatte hier gebucht weil ich ein großer Tierfreund bin und mich gerne von der tollen Arbeit überzeugen lassen wollte, aber bei mir war es schon vorbei als ich den furchtbar verfetteten Hund der dort lebt, gesehen hab. Das ist Tierquälerei. Andere Gehege zB. von den Primaten waren auch relativ klein, vor allem im Hinblick darauf, wieviele Hektar Land sie eigentlich zur Verfügung hätten. Das Personal war freundlich, das Essen aber leider eine Katastrophe. Unser “Luxus”-Zimmer war bei Ankunft voll mit Käfern und Moskitos, toten und lebendigen.. im Bett auf dem Kissen, am Boden , im Bad.. sehr ekelhaft. Im Pool schwimmen Tiere, wie zB. Gänse. Süß anzusehen, aber darin schwimmen will man dann nicht mehr.. Katzen auf dem Tisch beim Essen und auf dem Bartresen. Ich liebe Tiere und habe selbst Haustiere aber das war zum Teil doch sehr unhygienisch. Sonst schöner Garten in dem sich einige Tiere frei bewegen, was schön anzusehen ist. Tier Friedhof war etwas verstörend und einen Baum mit Tierknochen wie ein Mobile zu schmücken empfand ich auch als befremdlich. Fazit: Für das Geld kann man woanders eine schönere Unterkunft finden

Viele Tiere, nachts Löwengebrüll, schöne Anlage. Pool wurde durch Gänse mitbenutzt, war nicht so schön. Sehr schöne Iglus zum Wohnen/Schlafen. Wir hatten Jacke dort vergessen. Trotz mehrfacher Kontaktversuche keinerlei Reaktion von Harnas. Sehr kundenunfreundliches Verhalten. Wir fahren dort nicht wieder hin.

Harnas Wildlife ist einfach nur WOW
Tolle Steinchalets mit tolles Ausstattung. Großes Bett, großes Badezimmer. Tolle Erklärungen zu allem im Zimmer. Das Restaurant und Bar sind super mit günstigen Preisen und sehr gutem Essen. Dort gibt es sehr viele Tiere, die man immer um sich Drumherum hat. Das Personal ist super nett, immer freundlich und erklärt einem alles zu den Tieren. Tolle Touren kann man dort als Gast buchen. Es hat uns super gefallen und wir können es immer wieder nur empfehlen.
