Amazing hotel. Highly recommend staying here. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Breakfast and dinner are amazing, with a mixture of South African, European and American food. You won’t be disappointed. The biggest perk is watching animals in Kruger park right from the pool!

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing location with amazing staff! This was a brilliant place to stay and spend our time. The only item we would have liked to have available to us would have been a dinner option other than the buffet - like an upscale steakhouse or fancy menu ala carte. The buffet was good with many options but would have enjoyed a quieter dinner choice for our family.

Amazing hotel. We absolutely loved our stay. Room was modern, clean and spacious. The breakfast buffet was great but the dinner buffet was simply outstanding. The staff are all so friendly, yet professional. And the pool deck is wonderful. I will definitely stay here again.

This hotel was superb. The staff, the room, the outstanding food quality, the location (literally right at the Kruger gate), and the ambiance were first-class. We watched elephants and hippos from the pool deck (don’t worry—there is a fence). Highly recommend!

8/10 Very good

Safaris in this area are very expensive this offers great value for money. Food was excellent, particularly the Boma at dinner.The safaris were great as the guides really try to find the big game. We stayed at an expensive lodge in a Private Concession and felt the Kruger gates safaris were better although with more traffic

Great family-/child-friendly hotel adjacent to Kruger Gate, making it super convenient for safaris (5am departure = 530am wildlife sightings!). Pool view is stunning, and a further kids pool make it pleasant and entertaining for kids. Staff were super attentive to ensure our stay was pleasant! The dinner buffet was incredible!

The resort being right by the main entrance to Kruger National Park makes it a great spot to book safari tours of the park. Dining was fine, but would benefit from more selections à la carte.
