could do with a improvement with air condition in the elephant room however it a minor thing if you really fussy about it

great view or crocodile river and Wayne really helpful and friendly he even go the extra mile to do things like make you a sandwich or help with bags to ensure u are comfortable plus you can see some animals on the river

Our host, Wayne, was an absolute pleasure. He was very friendly and informative. The chef was very friendly and made the best food. We'll remember here chicken recipe. The bed was very comfortable. Our room was cleaned every day. Our balcony had an amazing view over the crocodile river.

The rooms were beautiful and newly furnished. The view was also stunning and it was lovely to hear the animals outside each night.

We stayed 4 nights and the experience couldn’t be better. Wayne and Ferdinand treated us as if we were from the royalty. I strongly recommend to have dinner in the lodge (Ferdinand cooks really good. We had dinner there the 4/4). The location couldn’t be better, seeing from our rooms impalas, hipos, crocodiles, buffalos, and more animals with very nice views of the river. No doubt that we will come back soon!!

Superb lodge, superbly managed by Wayne, superb location overlooking the Olifants River and the Kruger Park, in fact superb in every way. We stayed at the lodge as our last stop, after spending a number of days in the Kruger Park, before flying home to the UK. If you want first class accommodation in Marloth Park and just outside the Kruger Park, this has to be the best of the best. The bedrooms overlooking the Olifants River are large with all the amenities you could wish for (including a feature spa bath from which you can look out over the river and park), including an outdoor seating area with wonderful views overlooking the Olifants River and the Kruger Park. Access to the Kruger Park is either via Crocodile Bridge (20 - 30 minutes away) or via Malelane (a bit further in the other direction). We were also given the option of an evening meal which we took and was again superb, and which is useful as the lodge is quite remote and would require a drive out to find food after dark. The chef was Pindeli (apologies if I have spelt this incorrectly), and she was great. There are no cats in Marloth Park, so Kudu, Giraffe, Zebra and Warthog roam freely.

Well done Wayne and your team! Absolutely fabulous stay! Couldn't ask for anything more.

in one word = luxury stay in a beautiful location. In a gated community, the lodge was build as a home, later became a lodge. Safe free parking at the lodge. Animals roam around. The rooms were huge with fine african styling, a large bathroom, a terrace with a view of Kruger park. We saw elephants going for the evening drink. Very quiet place. We preordered a dinner at the lodge and we were enjoying fine dining in the huge common area. We shall definitely come back when visiting the area. And stay more nights, not only 1.

From the moment we pulled into the driveway at the property we felt at home. Wayne who is the Lodge Manager welcomed us with such warmth. He helped with our luggage and made us feel very welcome. We walked inside and were overwhelmed by the care that was taken with the decor and the furnishings. The lodge has a very luxurious feel . The quality of the furniture in the bedroom and the bedding etc was exceptional. Great care has been taken to make the guests very comfortable. The owners Carine and Fanie were so friendly and welcoming and made sure that everything was to our liking. They were so helpful with anything and everything that we required. Well done to you all, staff included, on creating a little piece of paradise. I definitely recommend the Lodge as a perfect comfortable getaway. Will definitely stay there again when we go up to Kruger National Park.

I love the accommodation, clean and luxurious

The only point I would make is that the Private Lodge is at the end of some fairly confusing and stony gravel tracks which need to be driven carefully i(n an ordinary sedan) and which feel rather like a maze. I would request an email map if you are not sent one or make sure you have Waze or similar installed. Otherwise everything was great.

The location could not be more spectacular and Wayne was an informative and ever-helpful host even calling us out to see up close a kudu passing by. Marloth Park seems almost in the bush: we saw a huge giraffe wandering past, for example.

Nothing to complain

Friendly and helpful staff, authentic design and feel of the room and hotel - looked better than we expected based on the pictures, clean, great location and view from the terrace and room towards the river and sunset, a lot at animals around and close to the lodge.

Our second time here and the standards are still top noch. Great hospitality, great facilities and the best view of the Kruger and Crocodile River money can buy!

Just that we had to leave

It was an unforgettable and incomparable experience. Absolutely stunning place right in the heart of the wilderness. It was much more interesting than the safari itself. Every day to have the opportunity to observe wild animals walking near the house, to feed them is an unforgettable experience.There were a lot of animals around- kudu, bushbucks, impala, warthogs, monkeys, zebras. Luxurious rooms overlooking the Crocodile river, a stylish large living room with lovely furniture, a delicious breakfast, an incredibly darling attitude from Wayne who woke up st 4am to prepare our breakfast packages with food and drinks and warm blankets. A beautiful sunrise and a gorgeous sunset that can be observed from our terrace, a variety of sounds of nature and smells - all this was unusual and amazing. I will definitely be back. The best place near Kruger park.

What is not to like. The place was awsum.

Not a fault if the lodge, but the road is rather bumpy.

The proximity to Kruger National Park and the Mozambique border. The view of the crocodile river. The game lodge flair.
