The aim was to see as much of the Hluhluwe Game Reserve as possible. Using Booking.com we were able to have two full days in the Reserve. We saw many animals including Cheetah/ elephants /Rhino / Buffalo/ Zebra /warthog and a variety of buck.
The area is well known for its sweet pineapples which are readily available on the roadside.
Suggestion: book secure accomodation and bring mosquito repellent

Hluhluwe Bush Camp does not live up to it's name.
Hluhluwe Bush Camp does not live up to it's name. It's not camping but GLAMPING, with modern anemities without taking away from the ;bush camp experience.
Peace & quiet in abundance.
Day visit to the Hluhluwe Game Reserve did not disappoint. Beautiful animal viewings.

Amazing park!!!
Amazing park!!! A pity we didn’t get to see any of the cats but it was still an amazing experience. We did a self drive and the roads were manageable with the Toyota urban cruiser so not necessary a 4x4. However we went in the dry season so be careful if you go during the wet season as I think a 4x4 would be needed. Amazon place where I would love to go back. Memorial gate- cash only. Nyalazi gate - cash or card. R5 for the maps.

We enjoyed our stay at Anew Hluhluwe, the facilities were great, the buffet was really good with a variety of options and friendly staff. I loved the Zulu dancing entertainment, it was a great vibe in the evenings. The front desk staff were pleasant and it was very convenient to book the safaris at the hotel. We had an incredible guide, Israel who took us on a morning safari, he was so knowledgable and we saw 4/5 Big 5. My disappointment was that I booked to spend my birthday at this hotel and I stated on my booking that I would like something special done for the evening at dinner, I reminded the staff at check-in and the dinner staff the day before, yet my bday was not acknowledged the next day at dinner. I was extremely disappointed as this is where I chose to spend my birthday with a short vacay. I did make the front desk staff and manager aware of this on check out.

We love visiting all the amenties that was around Hluhluwe.
We love visiting all the amenties that was around Hluhluwe. fot eg, the cheetah interation, Umfolozi game reserve etc We ate at the Railway breweries, steers and KFC. We got around with our own car. Not sure if I would avoid anything
Very friendly and helpful assistant manager (Ktane? not sure of the spelling of his name). Comfortable bed. Good hot water and pressure in the shower. The kitchenette is equipped to do some simple meal preparation (refrigerator/freezer, microwave, hot water kettle, and toaster oven/stovetop burner combo). Good, quiet air conditioning unit. Parking available in front of our unit. Gated property felt safe and secure. SPAR supermarket within walking distance. Good location for visiting the Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park via the eastern gate.
The two bedroom cottage was cozy, had everything we needed, bird life was amazing, wifi great, restaurant food was tasty and served well, stuff was smiling and helpful, a special mention of Craig,the owner, who were extremely helpful and catered to some of our emergency needs when the town shops was shut for few days due to kzn unrest,and fed us with lots of useful information. Will be returning soon 🙂.
Conveniently located within 15-20 minute drive of Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Game Reserve. Our room had a pleasant view over the pool and greenery of the hotel. Nice grounds. Breakfast had a selection of cold cuts, fruits, yogurt, juices, and omelettes were made fresh to order.
Special thanks to reception, who kindly received a parcel on our behalf ahead of the stay and stored it until our arrival.
We really liked how peaceful the area is. The trail is calming and it allows you to connect with the surrounding nature. Amazing breakfast prepared by mam'Khumalo and she is so sweet and lovely,enjoyed all conversations with her. The gamedrive to umfolozi game park was adventurous and exciting with the best tour guide. The nearby restaurant Delish was great too! Hluhluwe bush camp is awesome!
We loved that the cottage was self sufficient with bush views. It had a big bath and comfy bed, and there was a lovely walk way to the Roof Top Bar with Honesty Bar .
The forest and bush walks were beautiful and great to be able to walk in the wild among the non-preditor wild life, and be part of Kuleni eco-estate. Good location as close to False Bay and Hluhluwe Game Reserve.
The food at Hluhluwe river lodge was out of this world!! Breakfast and supper was first class. My wife and I went on honey moon and we were blown away. They accommodated us with everything we needed. Very considerate as they even helped us arrange game drives and activities in St Lucia. Amazingly friendly staff!! Nothing but compliments for Hluhluwe River Lodge
The location as part of the local community and the location relative to the game reserves and attractions of Zululand.
The size and appointment of the cottage, actually a small 3 bedroom house.
Very young family friendly. The proximity of the Hluhluwe parkrun is an added bonus.
For the price this place was awesome! We are on a backpacker budget and this allowed us to visit Hluhluwe-Imfolozi within our budget. Fairly good kitchen facilities and clean rooms/bathrooms! The host was so friendly, we would definitely stay here again!
The location. However, more information about how to get there should be provided, eg ferry crossing or self drive. Also describe route.
Option of self catering and half board.
Friendly and accommodating staff.
Great central location 15 minutes from Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Gate. Very clean & cosy. Great bed that was so comfy. Somehow Booking.com had our dates wrong, but Hlulala thankfully had space & accommodated us.
It was neat, clean, and comfortable with a lot of attention to detail in the set up. Staff were friendly and super helpful. Really peaceful environment. Super affordable rates for the amount of comfort.
2nd time visiting Hluhluwe Bush Camp. Everything about the camp is amazing, right from the dealings with Carissa, to the ablutions, environment, everything. Such a pleasure coming here.
A nice getaway, close to Hluhluwe game reserve - easy access to day visits. A comfortable "modest" cottage. We enjoyed the view of the dam and loved that the Bushbabies visited us.
Breakfast was AMAZING
Unit was lovely and clean and well maintained - maybe some better numbering
cant wait to come back
swimming pool by self catering units was lovely
Great location close to Imfolozi Hluhluwe Park, set in amongst natural forest and easy to get to. Outstanding restaurant, Delish, at the entrance to the Kuleni Game Park.
I like this place (I was there for the third time): it's a quiet, nice oasis, nearby Hluhluwe NP (20 minutes by car), Sta. Lucia/Cape Vidal NP (1 hour) good wifi
