Good day Thank you for taking the time to submit your comments on your stay at Sanbona Wildlife Reserve. Sanbona is a very special property and we are sorry that the whole experience did not meet your expectations. Unfortunately the Western Cape is suffering from a severe drought which makes the region more dry and arid that it normally is, but there are still many special experiences to be had at Sanbona. We hope to be able to welcome you back in the future. Kind regards
