From start to finish, Pondoro went out of their way to make our holiday perfect. All of the staff are super friendly, helpful and professional. The location is stunning- overlooking the river and hippos. The suites are beautifully decorated and offer peace and seclusion whilst being looked after perfectly. The game drives were fantastic and we were fortunate enough to see everything which we wanted. Pondoro is private and so you do not see other vehicles on the game drives and you can get close to the animals. I can not recommend Pondoro enough- the most memorable and special holiday. A huge thanks to all the wonderful staff.
Staff is well trained, very efficient. Lovely people, everybody made us feel so welcome. The Chef's food was wonderful. The place is busy all the time, but somehow they keep the premises in tip top shape at all times. Don't know when the staff cleans, it's like fairies with magic wands. When you turn your back, its clean. Lost of wild animals to see. Had a lovely time...

This is a fantastic experience. It's more than a hotel - it's an holiday with a difference. The package includes two safari type trips around the game park (morning and afternoon), all your meals and accommodation. The accommodation is excellent. We were treated to a BBQ type meal in the evening, which was social. The staff did an African dance which was fun. All...

Excellent stay at Chisomo Safari Camp. Glamping in tent rooms with hot showers and a good spread of food at meal times. The guides were particularly helpful and damn good at their jobs. Do note that this is a private reserve and is next to Kruger National Park instead of being directly in it. The benefit of which there isn't too many people (and jeeps) on the trails at...

For an all-inclusive lodge, it was worth the price not having to be charged for every meal and all the snacks and drinks from the mini bar. The staff were really friendly and aimed to please the guests. I appreciate the additional game drive at another game reserve since this one admitted to not having the "Big 5".

For an all-inclusive lodge, it was worth the price not having to be charged for every meal and all the snacks and drinks from the mini bar. The staff were really friendly and aimed to please the guests. I appreciate the additional game drive at another game reserve since this one admitted to not having the "Big 5". Its guide Colin was very knowledgeable and I learned so much more than the "Big 5." Our room was really spacious and tastefully decorated. No expense was spared to make us feel pampered.
Very familiar & intemate location - we get a really "out of africa " feeling. Staff is very polite and friendly. The spot is lovely and the rooms are very nice.
On the first night game drive, the game ranger was unprepared, as he did not have a spotlight, which was essential considering we were going on a night drive. We waited around for 15 minutes to get a spot light. Eventually we met up with the head game ranger who gave us a spotlight only to find out later that it did not work and caught on fire. Thus had to return back ...
On the first night game drive, the game ranger was unprepared, as he did not have a spotlight, which was essential considering we were going on a night drive. We waited around for 15 minutes to get a spot light. Eventually we met up with the head game ranger who gave us a spotlight only to find out later that it did not work and caught on fire. Thus had to return back early because we could not see anything. The following morning we had another issue with the same game ranger, as we were the only people who did not get blankets. This is unacceptable, as the morning game drives are extremely cold. This was extremely dissapointing especially because we booked at Karongwe to go on amazing game drives, however our first 2 game drives were unprofessional and definitely not up to standard. After complaining, we were upgraded to the presidential suite and got a much more knowledgeable game ranger which made our last night at Karongwe a much better experience.
We arrived late at umVangati House after our SAA Express flight was cancelled, but they still went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful dinner! It was only the next morning when we fully realized just how fantastic the property and it‘s location is.

We arrived late at umVangati House after our SAA Express flight was cancelled, but they still went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful dinner! It was only the next morning when we fully realized just how fantastic the property and it‘s location is. The staff went out of their way during the 2 days we were there to make us feel at home and make the most of the Blyde River Canyon area. Our car was covered in dead bugs after the late drive in, but we found the windscreen washed the first morning and on our departure day the whole car was magically clean. You can see wildlife at a watering hole from the house‘s deck and the small infinity pool at the hotel is perfect. One of the best rooms we‘ve been in and the homemade cookies were delicious! Just go and stay there as part of any SA trip.
The accomodation and surroundings were very relaxing. The owners were very friendly and went out of their way to accomodate us, even taking us to town and back for grocery shopping, as we didn't have a car. The pool was nice, but the weather didn't allow us to fully enjoy it. It was a little paradise away from home, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone. T...

A marvelous experience in South Africa. Everything is fantastic, nothing to complaint about.The food is great, you should have dinner in there.
Great comfortable stay and hosts very friendly and good food. Very good value for money!
We had a nice stay at Pam's place. The place was intimate, quiet, clean and nice. Pam was such a lovely host she would tell us stories and chat with us while making our breakfast. She is also very helpful in finalizing our itinerary. The room was cozy, and bathroom was really clean.
We stayed at this resort because of our flight from Hoedspruit. We were really surprised to find such a nice and quit place in the middle of the bush. The lodge is situated in the middle of a parc, where you can find als sorts of animals like giraffes, impala's and zebra's. The resort has fantastic gardens!

We stayed at this resort because of our flight from Hoedspruit. We were really surprised to find such a nice and quit place in the middle of the bush. The lodge is situated in the middle of a parc, where you can find als sorts of animals like giraffes, impala's and zebra's. The resort has fantastic gardens! You really feel very quit and alone there. Food was nice as well, but it is a set menu, so not a lot to choose from. The rooms are very large and clean.
Lovely place with nice rooms and facilities in a lovely neighbourhood in Hoedspruit. Hot water and coffee in the morning but no breakfast and very bad wifi service so don't count on it. But the owners were very lovely and accommodating and I would totally recommend!
The place is nice and quite, great for a vocation, but the breakfast wasn’t best for a 4 star game lodge and had to struggle with the gate every time you need to go out since you always need co call reception to open for you and they take time.
Outstanding. Super hospitable hosts, luxurious African-style accommodation, on a wonderful game reserve with plenty of wildlife close by. This place is amazing!
this is a very nice place to stay when doing safari in kruger or exploring the blyde river canyon. the pool is definetly a plus! we were very happy with our stay here for 4 nights. Anita and Gerrie are very friendly, helpfull and informative hosts.
Stayed for a short 3D2N and it was amazing. there is personal touch in everything and you will definitely feel at home. as it is inside a small private reserve, you can actually drive around and spot some animals! Will definitely come back here again
Welcoming staff with smiling faces & approachable. Breakfast was yummy. No noise on premises. U can rely on them. Keep up the good job guys.
We had a wonderful stay in the fantastic house in Blyde Wildlife Estate. Eunice was fantastic in taking good care of us, and Susan and George helped us in all matters regarding tours etc.
A nice B&B with decent rooms and a fabulous bathroom. Beds are highly comfortable. Owners are very accommodations and helpful. B&B is amidst a wildlife estate so wild animals ar roaming around.
So happy with our stay at leadwood lodge, had everything we needed and more in a peaceful secure location on a wildlife estate. Accommodation had all the amenities you could need and was very clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend staying here. Thanks again Tammy for being such a lovely host and making us feel so welcome at your place😊 Scott & Don

We felt the value for money, there is nice surrounding (bushes), birds singing in the mornings. Rooms cleans, staff very friendly even offered to assist with the young one while my husband and I were eating. Oh and the food, so homely! We both enjoyed it.
Picturesque mountains in background, rather romantic setting although the windows fixed mosquito netting was showing signs of age. The neighbouring accomodation had a group of youngsters who were drinking and playing music which would have disturbed us if it had been any louder and we were not so tired. Luckily it was ok.

Picturesque mountains in background, rather romantic setting although the windows fixed mosquito netting was showing signs of age. The neighbouring accomodation had a group of youngsters who were drinking and playing music which would have disturbed us if it had been any louder and we were not so tired. Luckily it was ok. The evening meal in the restaurant area was superb home cooking (we were actually on our own) and breakfast was good with a family of mongoose visiting the garden outside which was a delight. The reserve guide doubled up as a waiter and was so kind to us, it was amazing. Without notice, we asked to visit the Hippo pool before leaving and as it was not busy, we were taken just the two of us and were able to get out by the waters edge and photo from ground level. It was a wonderful visit. We only stayed one night as we were booked elsewhere but there was no general internet this night, although the guide gave us a hotspot from his phone for our urgent needs.
Absolute gem! Beautiful, private tented accommodation- particular favourite was the relaxing sunken bath. Delicious meals, plus friendliest staff and owner! Such a privilege to spend time with the lions.

On the first night game drive, the game ranger was unprepared, as he did not have a spotlight, which was essential considering we were going on a night drive. We waited around for 15 minutes to get a spot light. Eventually we met up with the head game ranger who gave us a spotlight only to find out later that it did not work and caught on fire. Thus had to return back early because we could not see anything. The following morning we had another issue with the same game ranger, as we were the only people who did not get blankets. This is unacceptable, as the morning game drives are extremely cold. This was extremely dissapointing especially because we booked at Karongwe to go on amazing game drives, however our first 2 game drives were unprofessional and definitely not up to standard. After complaining, we were upgraded to the presidential suite and got a much more knowledgeable game ranger which made our last night at Karongwe a much better experience.

Hoedspruit's best hotels with breakfast

From start to finish, Pondoro went out of their way to make our holiday perfect. All of the staff are super friendly, helpful and professional. The location is stunning- overlooking the river and hippos. The suites are beautifully decorated and offer peace and seclusion whilst being looked after perfectly. The game drives were fantastic and we were fortunate enough to see everything which we wanted. Pondoro is private and so you do not see other vehicles on the game drives and you can get close to the animals. I can not recommend Pondoro enough- the most memorable and special holiday. A huge thanks to all the wonderful staff.
Very familiar & intemate location - we get a really "out of africa " feeling. Staff is very polite and friendly. The spot is lovely and the rooms are very nice.

Yvette, the manager/owner of the place is the nicest person we've met in South Africa, she made our stay smooth, stress free and worth coming back. She organized everything for us, and she chose the best activity we can have. Thank you bushbaby river lodge!!! we had an amazing time
We felt the value for money, there is nice surrounding (bushes), birds singing in the mornings. Rooms cleans, staff very friendly even offered to assist with the young one while my husband and I were eating. Oh and the food, so homely! We both enjoyed it.
Great comfortable stay and hosts very friendly and good food. Very good value for money!
We stayed at this resort because of our flight from Hoedspruit. We were really surprised to find such a nice and quit place in the middle of the bush. The lodge is situated in the middle of a parc, where you can find als sorts of animals like giraffes, impala's and zebra's. The resort has fantastic gardens!

You really feel very quit and alone there. Food was nice as well, but it is a set menu, so not a lot to choose from. The rooms are very large and clean.
Staff is well trained, very efficient. Lovely people, everybody made us feel so welcome. The Chef's food was wonderful. The place is busy all the time, but somehow they keep the premises in tip top shape at all times. Don't know when the staff cleans, it's like fairies with magic wands. When you turn your back, its clean. Lost of wild animals to see. Had a lovely time...

For an all-inclusive lodge, it was worth the price not having to be charged for every meal and all the snacks and drinks from the mini bar. The staff were really friendly and aimed to please the guests. I appreciate the additional game drive at another game reserve since this one admitted to not having the "Big 5".

For an all-inclusive lodge, it was worth the price not having to be charged for every meal and all the snacks and drinks from the mini bar. The staff were really friendly and aimed to please the guests. I appreciate the additional game drive at another game reserve since this one admitted to not having the "Big 5". Its guide Colin was very knowledgeable and I learned so much more than the "Big 5." Our room was really spacious and tastefully decorated. No expense was spared to make us feel pampered.
This is a fantastic experience. It's more than a hotel - it's an holiday with a difference. The package includes two safari type trips around the game park (morning and afternoon), all your meals and accommodation. The accommodation is excellent. We were treated to a BBQ type meal in the evening, which was social. The staff did an African dance which was fun. All...

The place is nice and quite, great for a vocation, but the breakfast wasn’t best for a 4 star game lodge and had to struggle with the gate every time you need to go out since you always need co call reception to open for you and they take time.
We arrived late at umVangati House after our SAA Express flight was cancelled, but they still went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful dinner! It was only the next morning when we fully realized just how fantastic the property and it‘s location is.

We arrived late at umVangati House after our SAA Express flight was cancelled, but they still went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful dinner! It was only the next morning when we fully realized just how fantastic the property and it‘s location is. The staff went out of their way during the 2 days we were there to make us feel at home and make the most of the Blyde River Canyon area. Our car was covered in dead bugs after the late drive in, but we found the windscreen washed the first morning and on our departure day the whole car was magically clean. You can see wildlife at a watering hole from the house‘s deck and the small infinity pool at the hotel is perfect. One of the best rooms we‘ve been in and the homemade cookies were delicious! Just go and stay there as part of any SA trip.
Excellent stay at Chisomo Safari Camp. Glamping in tent rooms with hot showers and a good spread of food at meal times. The guides were particularly helpful and damn good at their jobs. Do note that this is a private reserve and is next to Kruger National Park instead of being directly in it. The benefit of which there isn't too many people (and jeeps) on the trails at...

A marvelous experience in South Africa. Everything is fantastic, nothing to complaint about.The food is great, you should have dinner in there.
Stayed for a short 3D2N and it was amazing. there is personal touch in everything and you will definitely feel at home. as it is inside a small private reserve, you can actually drive around and spot some animals! Will definitely come back here again
