5.0 "By selaikay - Most amazing Weekend"

My husband and I had the most amazing weekend at Oceana Wildlife. All the staff treatment from welcoming, check in, restaurant/dining, bar, room service, office support/reception, spa and game/beach drive was outstanding. Our room, in and out was top quality. It was truly a 5 star experience and I’d really recommend it if you want to unwind with a partner, friends or family. There are dining spots to accommodate a group ideal for big families, group of friends or colleagues.
