    Cold and damp on our 3rd night there. But guess that is the weather.

    Food was good. Especially liked the brai on our second evening.

    A luxury lodge footsteps away from Kruger.

    the tents are very close to each other and you can see your neighbours/and they can see you (on the terrace), and you can hear everything that your neighbours are up to. This destroys the serenity of having views of the Kruger park from the terrace. We were unlucky as one of our neighbours decided to play super loud hip hop music followed by extremely loud sex. (luckily very short :D). The food at dinner was nice but breakfasts were not special and very simple - not the luxury one would expect in such accommodation. We did not eat lunch here - but heard the other guests complaining about the quality of their ordered food. Their offered safari rides were too expensive.

    It is a luxury Lodge within Kruger park. The tents were amazing with a super huge and comfortable bed. Everything about the tent was amazing. The outside shower was an added bonus. The granite rock that is a short walk from the tent is an amazing place to enjoy the sunset over the Kruger and enjoy the true tranquility. Also take some artsy photos :) The Boma dinner was so romantic and the food for really tasty.

    Breakfast was kind of boring on the 3rd day as it was the same thing. The chef can change things a bit on the breakfast

    Service and dinner was great. Kudus to the chef. The stuff was most helpful and friendly.

    The walkways can be more lighted at night, considering safety of guests and in avoiding unwanted encounters with small living beings

    Beautiful facilities; well planned for tranquility. Have also provided facilities with ‘comfort’ in mind. Restaurant had good food and selection was good

    The only downer is it is located in a part of the park with seemingly less animals. But saw elephants from the restaurant. Heard hyenas from our tent. But the six hour game drives got you further into the park and you see more.

    The tents were amazing. Simple elegance. Air conditioning was great. Indoor/ outdoor showers were so nice. Large deck to sit on. Restaurant was very good! Buffet at night with many great options. Loved our coffees from the bar. Sitting along the edge of each was a treat. Good game drives. Gave us packed breakfasts in the morning. The staff were amazing. Very friendly, helpful and good knowledge of what it is going on.

    Loadshedding interrupts everything while generators kick on, but that's out of their control.

    Phenomenal & worthwhile place to stay near Kruger entrance!

    Having to leave/travel onward. Dinner buffets can be a bit of a miss: I liked the dinner in the restaurant one night but did not enjoy the one out in the boma another night, food wise.

    Staff were all very friendly and easy to talk to, and everyone seemed happy to be there. Breakfast on-the-house is delicious, whether on a la carte days or buffet days. The tent has a cool relaxing vibe and both an in-door or outdoor (walled) shower for those feeling frisky. Common areas and pool have a great view into the bushes with a water hole and for sunset. The whole experience was awesome, and you feel like you're somewhere special for sure, away from everything else in the world. The price is well worth it if you can afford; I highly recommend!

    Even though it's located inside Kruger the entrance is outside the park so everyday you have to pass through the Gates. Not a major issue but just need to beware of that. Would highly recommend in getting the Wild Card Pass. Saves time and money.

    Loved the Tent and setting. Staff beyond helpful and friendly. Property is beautiful.

    To do the self drive you need to pay the conservation fee at Kruger every day you enter the park.

    You actually have to leave the park (even though the Lodge mentioned INSIDE the park) and you have to pay again if you want to drive back into the park.

    Incredible experience at the boarder of Kruger National Park with the view into the park. We had a group of elephants walking directly along the pool area offering an unbelievable experience! The tents were luxurious and comfortable for a unique stay. We liked the Game Drives with the lodge drivers a lot and the staff was always very friendly and helpful! We really enjoyed the stay a lot!
