Great hotel. Absolutely stunning. Huge rooms, very reasonably priced. The staff I absolutely amazing and very accommodating. We ended up having dinner at the property all 3 nights their cook is great. Little bit further from Kruger gate-about 40 min - but considering everything well worth it. Probably the first time that my wife that can find something wrong with everything did not complain…

If you need a stay, book Abangane Guest Lodge! Abangane Guest Lodge is a beautiful Lodge with nice rooms, a pool, a beautiful garden and a very delicious breakfast. Around the lodge is just nature. You'll just hear birds singing and rushing water from a waterfall. The staff is super kind, it was like a family. Thank you very much!

Dificuldade em alimentação. Hotel só oferece café da manhã e não tem menu para outras refeições. Comércio local carente com horário de atendimento muito restrito, sem possibilidade de jantar (fecham muito cedo). Não existe academia. Apenas uma esteira fora de uso. Nao há funcionários no local para suporte, apenas no café da manhã.

Tranquility in the hidden gem

Brilliant stay. Margrit was more than helpful and welcoming. She upgraded our room to Honeymoon suite. The room was beautiful, well furnished and the jacuzzi was a bonus. The service was very good from both Margrit and the ladies working with her.

8/10 Very good

The property itself is beautiful. It is run by a fellow named Joe who seemed quite put out by having us as paying guests at the lodge. He commented on how irritated he was that we were in hazeyview and only wanted to go ziplining instead of doing that and other activities all day long (which Joe mentioned then but never offered the options prior to our arrival) . We arrived at the lodge after a long hot day visiting many of the sites in the area and each of us (6 adults) had a beer by the pool. Joe commented about how much we were drinking as if it shocked him that we'd each have one drink. The lodge is one of the few in the area that doesn't have either self catering or a restaurant for dinner, Joe insisted we drink from his honesty bar with grossly overpriced drinks, especially for ZA. Joe also insisted we go to one of the "local" hazeyview restaurants which were very chain like and didn't offer any information on the the wonderful restaurants located witihin competing guest accommodations. While at the resort there were rolling blackouts (no power) which started at 8am. Breakfast also started at 8 which quite conveniently for the hosts greatly cut down on what they offered for breakfast. There were no concessions made to make up for the lack of breakfast choices nor was there any option to instead serve breakfast at 7 to compensate for the blackout. All in all we enjoyed our stay but beware that Joe seems to only host guests to pay for his golf, not because he enjoys it.

Goede B&B

Leuke lodge of B&B. Eigenaren vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Goed ontbijt. Ligging is wat minder : afgelegen en aankomst via een dirt Road.

Wir waren 3 Tage im Abangane Guest Lodge und fühlten uns sehr wohl. Die LAge zum Canyon und zum Krüger ist perfekt. Das Ream ist sehr bemüht und versucht jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen. Wir kommen wieder.

Schöne Lodge

Die Lodge ist sehr sauber und gemütlich, komfortabel und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Sie hat eine super Lage mit schöner Aussicht und beheiztem Außenpool. Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Sie geben viele Tipps für Touren und Besichtigungen.Die Lodge ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt für den Kruger Nationalpark und den Blyderivier Canyon, sowie Ausflüge ins Gebirge. Das Frühstück ist ausgezeichnet.

Magnifique Guest Lodge - Très bon accueil

Ce Lodge a changé de propriétaire il y a un peu plus d'un an. Je ne sais pas comment c'était avant (bien je suppose au vu des commentaires) mais c'est clairement très bien aujourd'hui. Les chambres sont grandes, belles, bien décorées et équipées. L'endroit est calme avec une belle vue, un beau jardin et une superbe piscine à débordement chauffée (il faut l'indiquer car c'est la seule de tout notre séjour en Afrique du Sud). Joe et Margrit ont été de très bons conseils tant pour nos excursions que pour les restaurants situés par très loin. Une bonne localisation pour le Parc Kruger ou pour le Canyon. Nous conseillons cette adresse à Hazyview.

Traumhaft schöne Lodge in Hazyview

Als wir angekommen sind, wurden wir von Margrit sehr herzlich persönlich begrüßt und uns eine kleine Führung über das Anwesen gegeben. Die Fotos versprechen nicht zuviel - es ist wirklich so schön. Wir wurden an beiden Tagen morgens zur Safari abgeholt und konnten daher nicht am Frühstück teilnehmen. Margrit hat uns daher ein wunderbares Frühstück to go zubereitet. Wir haben uns sehr sehr wohlgefühlt bei Margrit und Joe.

2/10 Poor

Do NOT recommend this Lodge

The worst accommodation I’ve ever experienced in my life. -there was an error with the payments and they charged me a $10.00AUD credit card fee, so there is hidden fees to what is advertised on expedia. -we were rudely greeted, the lady’s first sentence to us was “I told you to hire a car to come here” even though we had done our research and booked private transfers -the place is not very private, it was an extremely awkward stay and we felt as if we were being watched the whole time we were out of the room -the owners told us incorrect information, we got told it was safe to walk into town at night time, although after speaking to the locals, they told us it was very dangerous as there is a lot of wild hippopotamus’s and people that could rob us as it is a common occurrence in that town -the female owner made a lot of rude and offensive comments about private game reserves stating that they feed the animals and that’s why they are there etc. -on a positive note, the rooms were neat, well presented and clean. I would suggest people to NOT book at this hotel and save the bad experience that we had!

The lodge is located on a hillside with outstanding views. The owners were wonderful in everything they did. The breakfast was outstanding and was served with grace and elegance. The room was large and well stocked with everything I could want. Wi Fi was great. Would definitely stay here again!!

Very enjoyable stay and close to all tourist sites

Excellent hosts, Klaus and Ridwaan, made us feel very welcome. The honeymoon suite is worth paying the extra for as it comes with a fully functioning jaquzzi bath and is a little bigger that other rooms. It also faces the pool area. Breakfast is extensive (Klaus will insist you eat his croissants) and I too recommend the mince monty! Pool is clean and well cared for with an extensive outlook. The rooms are cleaned and there is little to want for! I would advise that you travel in an SUV or 4x4 - it makes the 400m approach road to the property a little easier to cope with and you'll need it in the Kruger for the dirt roads anyway. Evening meal? Got to be Summerfields Kitchen (2km away). Not cheap but very well presented and tasty. Would not hesitate to visit again.

Wir waren für 1 Nacht als Zwischenstopp in der Lodge und sind sehr zufrieden. Saubere, schöne Zimmer mit Moskitonetz, schöner Pool und tolle Aussicht. Abreise um 6:00 h morgens war kein Problem, es gab noch ein super Päckchen mit leckerem Frühstück zum Mitnehmen. Toller Service, vielen Dank!

FANTASTIC!

Abangane means friends and,indeed, this is the feeling you get from Ridwaan and Klaus. Their boutique hotel- the room,the pool and especially the food were fantastic. Location is also great-10 min. drive from Phabeni gate and 30 min. drive from the airport. We enjoyed every minute of the 4 nights we stayed there.
