A huge thank you to Ronel, who was so welcoming and kindly upgraded us to a Family Suite at no extra cost—she is a fantastic host! Chichi was equally lovely and made us feel so taken care of. The absolute highlight? Coming back from our Kruger Park trip to find that the lodge management had washed our car! We’ve stayed in countless places, but we have never experienced...

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best area to stay in Marloth Park?

The best area to stay in Marloth Park is within the park itself, particularly in properties located closer to the Crocodile River.


Marloth Park is a unique wildlife conservancy, not a traditional town, so the "best area" refers to the type of accommodation and its positioning within the park. Properties along the Crocodile River offer unparalleled views of the Kruger National Park and its wildlife, often providing direct access to the river's edge where animals frequently gather. This area is generally quieter and offers a more secluded bush experience.


For couples seeking a romantic and exclusive safari experience, staying in a private lodge or villa directly overlooking the Crocodile River is ideal. Imagine enjoying breakfast on your veranda while watching elephants drink from the river, or spotting hippos and crocodiles from your doorstep. Many of these lodges offer private game viewing decks, plunge pools, and high-end amenities, superb for a memorable escape.


Families with older children will also appreciate properties within Marloth Park that offer a blend of comfort and wildlife interaction. Choosing a self-catering villa or a guesthouse with a private garden allows for a more relaxed pace. Many properties are unfenced on three sides, meaning warthogs, zebras, giraffes, and impalas can wander freely through the grounds, offering exciting encounters right outside your door.

When is the best time to go to Marloth Park?

The best time to visit Marloth Park is during the dry winter months, from May to September, when wildlife viewing is at its peak.


During this period, the vegetation is sparse, and animals congregate around water sources like the Crocodile River, making them easier to spot. The weather is generally mild and sunny, with cooler evenings, which is ideal for game drives and outdoor activities. This season is particularly good for couples looking for a romantic safari experience without the intense heat and humidity.


The shoulder seasons, April and October, also offer good wildlife viewing opportunities with fewer crowds and pleasant weather.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

You can cancel your hotel reservation on Expedia, although it depends on the cancellation policy of your booking. Most bookings are refundable if cancelled within 24 to 48 hours of the scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy.
