Elephant Plains Game Lodge
"The accommodation and experience you get from staying at Elephant Plains is incredible. Every staff member helped make our stay one to remember. The bar staff even taught my husband some of the local language! I can't say enough about our guide and tracker for the safaris - they gave us unreal, National Geographic-like memories. Our room was spacious and had not only a glass-walled shower looking out to the waterhole where you can view animals, but a tub with a skylight looking to the sky and windows again looking to the waterhole so that even when relaxing in the bath you can enjoy nature. The food each day was different and tasted good. The kudo filets were my favourite! I hope to return!"Show more

"The place exceeded our expectations. The staff were friendly, the facilities and food was delicious, and the game drives allowed us up close and personal encounters. If your considering driving through Kruger national park or coming to a private game reserve next to Kruger. Definitely go to the private game, we would not have seen half the animals if it wasn’t for our guides pointing them out. We also were able to get next to leopards, lions, elephants. Things you seen from afar at Kruger unless your lucky. Elephants also visited our camp daily, and while your having breakfast, they were having their water for day. In all, definitely recommend the place."Show more

Peermont Metcourt at Khoroni Thohoyandou
"In general very good except for the last day - we were booked (and paid in advance the full amount)
from 23.03.2015 up to 31.03.2015 - unfortunately the heavy rain in the mountains near the village of Gaba (where I was working) washed the road to the site away and we had to return to our head office on 30.03.2015. Thus on 29.03.2015, I went to reception to try and cancel the last day - the lady at reception was very un-helpful and just said that I had to do it online (asI booked online) I tried but was unsuccessful - I then approached her again for help but shed did not want to help at all."Show more

This is a great place to stay if you want to enter Kruger National Park through the Crocodile Gate. Food was decent and spa was excellent. Overall we had a good time there. We booked the evening safari, 8 hour safari as well as Panoramic tour (Blyde River Canyon) through the hotel. One may be able to get these cheaper by using other agencies, but I didn't have much time before visiting to explore other options. Hotel option was certainly very convenient."Show more

stay safe at all times.
The rangers were very knowledgeable and thanks to them we were able to see the Big Fives.
The best experience was opting to sleep in their tree house on outlast night . Feeling completely alone in the wilderness away from it all , gazing the stars, hearing just the sounds of animals and birds and watch the sunrise was like a a dream. Do please try it ."Show more

We left with some amazing memories of the experience both in terms of the standard of the accommodation, the hospitality of Harold, the General Manager and his attentive team and the safaris, guided by Nicholas. When we were booking our stay we did lots of research to select what we felt would be the best option available and we overwhelmed by the choice in Kruger. We were not disappointed by our selection and would recommend Hamilton's to anyone wanting a luxury experience. The team could not do enough for us and helped to make this a fabulous holiday to remember for a lifetime. Thanks Harold and team for your attentive and personal service."Show more

Such a beautiful property and well located. Over-inflated beverage prices. It is all and well giving a package for Dinner and breakfast but does not help to make up on the drinks prices.
The sleeper couches are the same as back then (Unsleepable), my 11-year-old had to share our bed with us. Maybe pull a king bed fitting over the two single beds if you never intend to replace the horrible sleeper couches so the kid does not fall through the middle of the two beds.

"This is a nice and well designed lodge right on the bank of the Crocodile River overlooking the southernmost Kruger National Park. Animals may come right across the river near the Lodge to feed.
The lodge is about 6 km from the main road to Crocodile Bridge Gate of the Kruger Park, and the road is currently under construction and a bit rough.
The only problem with this place it that they offer no dinner, and one has to either drive another 3-4 km to another Lodge for a meal or go to Komatipoort which is about 10 km away. The breakfast, however, is excellent.
Since the rooms anr self-catering with small kitchenettes and microwaves, etc. most guests are self-catering and go shopping in Komatipoort."Show more

We love the bush and what was so great this time "penvark" came every evening just after 20:15 for his treat, (fruit).
But the only thing that was a down side was the night we forgot to buy firelighters that cost us R60 and that was a shock for me, even if I went back to town that would still not cost that much. Real shocker.
Overall the most relaxing place to be. If you really just want to enjoy your time in the bush, just sit at the lovely pool read a book or drink that glass of ice cold white wine. In the evening relax with bottle of red wine you put away for special occasions build your fire and braai that lovely fillet. Enjoy the cool night breeze
This place will always be part of our hearts"Show more

One may be able to get these cheaper by using other agencies, but I didn't have much time before visiting to explore other options. Hotel option was certainly very convenient."Show more

"We really enjoyed our stay at the Needless Lodge! The food was fantastic, the staff was very friendly and the surrounding was wonderful! The Lodge is located at a quiet area near the Kruger Park - Breakfast and Dinner are included in the room price. Every evening the owners diner together with their guests which creates a very nice and relaxing atmosphere. We totally recommend a stay at the Needless Lodge!"Show more

Simbavati River Lodge
"We had a group of 10 (5 couples) and we loved our stay. The staff were so great in responding to emails prior to the trip (they even notified us of our cancelled flights prior to the airline itself). They coordinated pick up and drop offs from HDS and allowed us to maximize our game drives. Although we didn't quite get to see as many animals as I hoped, we definitely did see the big 5 including a leopard eating its kill which was awesome. Would highly recommend them!"Show more

Belvedere on River Guest House
"This is an interesting house that looks far older than it is. The rooms are spacious and clean and there's good, secure parking. The big verandah looks over the Crocodile River into the Kruger National Park and elephants, waterbuck and other animals take a trip across the river, to feed right below. The breakfast was excellent, looking out onto the river and the wildlife. I would thoroughly recommend the Belvedere to anyone touring the area."Show more

Pestana Kruger Lodge
"After about four years we booked again after a horrible experience.
Such a beautiful property and well located. Over-inflated beverage prices. It is all and well giving a package for Dinner and breakfast but does not help to make up on the drinks prices.
The sleeper couches are the same as back then (Unsleepable), my 11-year-old had to share our bed with us. Maybe pull a king bed fitting over the two single beds if you never intend to replace the horrible sleeper couches so the kid does not fall through the middle of the two beds. As previously I should not even write this review for there will not be a response, as years ago."Show more

Bucklers Africa Bed and Breakfast
"This is a nice and well designed lodge right on the bank of the Crocodile River overlooking the southernmost Kruger National Park. Animals may come right across the river near the Lodge to feed.
The lodge is about 6 km from the main road to Crocodile Bridge Gate of the Kruger Park, and the road is currently under construction and a bit rough.
The only problem with this place it that they offer no dinner, and one has to either drive another 3-4 km to another Lodge for a meal or go to Komatipoort which is about 10 km away. The breakfast, however, is excellent.
Since the rooms anr self-catering with small kitchenettes and microwaves, etc. most guests are self-catering and go shopping in Komatipoort."Show more

"We stayed at the Trees Too for one night, and we thank very much the owner for her kindness.
She helped us A LOT about going to Mozambique, she was very helpful. she also gave us advices before we go to the Kruger about the best places of the moment (dry season). The place is very near of the border with Mozambique and very near of the crocodile bridge gate of the kruger park, and the place is very quiet. We enjoyed the meals, and all the people of the lodge were very nice."Show more

Silonque Bush Estate & Spa
"This is not our first visit to Silonque Bush and not the last that's a promise, we fall in love with the Lodge and it's staff members the 1st time we visit it was with our 20th wedding anniversary and we promise our self's when ever we have time to go that will be the place. We love the bush and what was so great this time "penvark" came every evening just after 20:15 for his treat, (fruit).
But the only thing that was a down side was the night we forgot to buy firelighters that cost us R60 and that was a shock for me, even if I went back to town that would still not cost that much. Real shocker.
Overall the most relaxing place to be. If you really just want to enjoy your time in the bush, just sit at the lovely pool read a book or drink that glass of ice cold white wine. In the evening relax with bottle of red wine you put away for special occasions build your fire and braai that lovely fillet. Enjoy the cool night breeze
This place will always be part of our hearts"Show more

20km after the crocodile bridge gate we arrived at the hotel.
it is within the kruger natl park, in the southern area, very close to the mozambique boundary.
as in the other private reserves, we paid somewhat high for what the hotel could offer. for example, the food is very basic.
on the other hand, this hotel provide very good guides and brand new toyota jeeps for the game."Show more

Mjejane River Lodge
"We arrived after sunset and the hotel was nearly dark. Apparently our reservation through Agoda was never received at Mjejane River Lodge. The general manager responded by quickly arranging a room and directed the restaurant to prepare the meal of our choice. While we waited for dinner, drinks were sent to our room to help us relax. The manager also explained that the property was completely sold out for the following night, so we would need to be moved. His solution was a brand new, three bedroom, three bath home on the property. It had a great deck and hot tub overlooking the Crocodile River, a short walk from the lodge. I can't say enough about the terrific treatment we received. It was a shame we could not have stayed much, much longer."Show more

Nevertheless we had a great time at Manzini.The chalet was large,very clean,A/C,big TV and a small private swimming pool,fantastic!

When we were booking our stay we did lots of research to select what we felt would be the best option available and we overwhelmed by the choice in Kruger. We were not disappointed by our selection and would recommend Hamilton's to anyone wanting a luxury experience.

Hoyo Hoyo Safari Lodge
"Hoyo Hoyo is located in a private concession area of Kruger NP, shared with two sisters properties, Hamilton and Imbali. This means we can do off-road game drive, which is not allowed in public area of Kruger NP. We managed to see all big five within two days, thanks to off-road exploration. Our guide is very knowledgeable and highly skilled for spotting animals.
The lodge is lovely. There are only five rooms which give you a private setting. Everything's in good condition and clean. The open-air shower and no-door bathroom might be a bit awkward for some guests.
There's no TV, cell phone signal or internet, but that's a good thing for you to disconnected from the world for a few days and enjoy the full safari experiences. There's also a water hole opposite the pool, which attracted different kinds of animals, from impala, warthog, hyena, and cape buffalo!
Staffs are extremely friendly and helpful. Food was great (although no game meat). Overall, we had a fantastic stay there. Recommended!"Show more

You need a ride to reach kruger park because there is no public transport here. Renting a car is much cheaper than take a taxi but 2hours drive from Nelspruit airport to Kruger park in africa may not easy for tourist.

If you are a nature lover, do yourself a favor and visit the park. Every visit is different, every day there are new things to experience

Kruger park is a wonderful national reserve. To see a lot of the animals you may need to stay there for 2 nights.
