Kruger Park acess

Big room and daily view of monkeys. Good dinners and good location to Kruger and a local small town. The pool is smaller than pictures show but still nice to lounge in the shade near the pool.

Lodge immerso nel bush africano in un paesino dove non c'è nulla. Camera spaziosa. Le cose comprese inesistenti: set di cortesia mancante, non è stato messo neanche il secondo giorno, la pulizia della camera non è stata fatta (solo il letto) , non hanno sostituito gli asciugamani sporchi, la cosa assurda è che avevo mnesso un asciugamano per terra perchè sporco, mi è stato rimesso steso in doccia.

Not so great

I found that many of the amenities listed as onsite were not present, they we're actually part of other lodges in the area, but not onsite where we were staying. There also seemed to be some sort of sewerage problem while we were there as our rooms and outside of our house smelled quite foul. The beds were spacious, but extremely uncomfortable.

Prima, zeer leuk restaurant

Prima accomodatie voor 1 nacht, redelijk dicht bij ingang Kruger. Kamer was niet groot en erg basic, maar meer heb je ook niet nodig. Restaurant was op een wat hoger gedeelte met een zeer groot en sfeervol terras. Erg goed gegeten.

nice place. very good restaurant - long open hours

friendly check in. nice room with plenty of space and efficient AC. bit difficult to walk back from the excellent restaurant in the dark though. food very good with full a la carte menu with good choice of wine and beer - thoroughly recommended. only drawback was having to leave a 500 rand key deposit (although I understand the reasoning)

Lodge a 20 minuti dal parco Kruger

Lodge caratteristico a due passi dal Kruger (20 minuti dal Crocodile Bridge gate). Semplice ma molto caratteristico sia per la struttura che per l'ambiente in cui si trova (dentro una riserva naturale). Consigliato per famiglie con bambini e a chi piace fare da se (si hanno a disposizione la cucina e il barbecue esterno).

Excellent

The location of the lodge was wonderful. It is in Marloth Park - right next to Kruger and wild animals walked around the property. There were zebras, wharthogs, monkeys just to name a few. The Chalet we stayed it had three bedrooms and a kitchen and living room space. Very nice people on property and would totally recommend. Go into Kruger through the Crocodile Bridge gate - we say so many animals and even three cheetahs! Excellent all the way around!!!!
