Homestays in Mpumalanga, South Africa

What a spectacular place!!! Visited with my friend for a few days. It was her first time in South Africa. Experience left such a beautiful impression of our beautiful country and its people❤️❤️❤️ The place and staff were AMAZING!!! So friendly, helpful, cheerful - always a pleasure to be around. The food and drinks provided were delicious and spectacular. Our room was always clean, made up and fully stocked with drinks and snacks. The game drives were informative and spectacular - phenomenal drivers. Transportation from and to the airport was timely and fantastic! Definitely recommend staying here!!! Special thanks to Victor, Benedict, Reyneke*, Sam, Jane, Hamilton, Imagine, Marita, S’fiso, and the list goes on😁😁😁 My friends and I are already planning our next visit back!!!

Прекрасный отель, чтобы остановиться и посмотреть каньон реки Блайд. Домики чистые, аккуратные, есть все, что нужно для проживания. Вечером прекрасно можно провести время на веранде или на скамейке возле пруда. Мы были в прохладное время года - в домике топили печь и были простыни с электрическим подогревом, это было очень удобно. Хозяева очень отзывчивые, готовы помочь в любой ситуации. Большое спасибо.

Stayed for one night. No breakfast as we left very early for the airport. Hospital oh stylish room, comfortable mattresses and pillows. Dinner at the hotel restaurant - beyond all praise!

Lodge is located in Marlot Park, so without visiting animals you will not stay, we came to us various antilops, zebras, bearded, near saw giraffes and males, it is very cool! We had a two-room lodge in the style of the loft all new and beautiful. The only thing to bear in mind is that food needs to be brought with you, there is nothing in the boat and the staff are very badly speaking and understanding in English. We were without a car and we were very helpful by the manager who took us to the nearest Spara on the Marlot Park territory, for which she was separate thank you. The walk was about an hour in one direction. We were two days considered quite enough for this location. It is necessary to visit.

Отдыхали вдвоём с женой. Лодж очень удачно расположен прям на Крокодил ривер, до въезда в парк Крюгер (Малелане) 15 минут на авто, пешком до центра городка 20 минут. Животные подходят очень близко, не выходя из отеля видели слонов, бегемотов, крокодилов и антилоп. Сам лодж неплохой, но требуется ремонт, очень всё «уставшее» но всё работает, завтрак достаточно неплохой, потом работает ресторан с 11 утра и до 8 вечера. Есть небольшой бассейн, который очень спасает в жару. Персонал приветливый, девочка на ресепшн нам во многом помогла. Вобщем всё хорошо!

It’s our honeymoon, and we’re glad we chose South Africa as our honeymoon destination! Spent 4 nights at Grand Kruger Lodge and booked 2 game drives, a sunrise bush walk and sunset drive via the lodge. The lodge staff were good representatives of South African hospitality; we were well taken care of since day 1 - from decorating our room to welcome us for our honeymoon, the delicious and homely dinner spread (we looked forward to checking out the handwritten menu on the blackboard daily!), the friendly chats to find out if we enjoyed our Kruger National Park experience, leaving us chocolates on our bed after dinner etc. Returning to the lodge after our day felt like returning home to meet close friends whom we knew by name. Special shoutout to Innocent (yes that’s a staff’s name) who even gave us a ride back to the lodge when he saw us walking on the dirt path back after visiting Marloth viewpoint! The game drives were conducted by the lodge safari guides, while the bush walk and sunset drive were conducted by SAN Parks rangers. We got Tamba as our game drive guide and learnt loads from him! From learning how to identify male/female animals via their distinctive features, to looking out for telltale signs such as animal poop and footprints to determine if the animals were nearby, the drives were like a live Nat Geo experience! Definitely miss this place and everyone we met at Kruger/Marloth. Thank you for the lovely memories 😊

The hotel is nice itself with a lot of kitchen stuff to make your food and even with a braii (BBQ facility) in place. The surrounding is lovely with a small pool next to luxury rooms. The Marlothi park is another game reserve near Kruger and we even found some animals at night on the street to hotel.

We were very pleasantly surprised when we found ourselves in a house with a kitchen as we have a toddler granddaughter travelling with us and the executive room was very safe and this made it easy to sterilise bottles and prepare our own food. We went on an evening safari however our transport was late and we held up the safari crew leaving on time. When we returned from our safari we were offered a meal at spur to be delivered so we placed the order around 8.30 at night. Two hours later our meals had not arrived and we went to bed hungry and very unhappy. All the excuses under the sun were offered over these two hours. In the end we cancelled it as too late and upset to eat. Spur offered a free breakfast to make up for the calamity of the previous evening however as I booked the rate that included breakfast we declined. We placed your order for breakfast and it was delivered to the house as requested and it was beautiful. When we went to hand back the keys the lady said we needed to pay for the breakfast. I had to show her the rate that I booked included breakfast so I had already paid for it. We did not pay and I left unhappy and declared we would never be back. I would suggest better communication and never trust the local delivery people. Get yourself to the Safari gate there is parking there and get yourself dinner or make your own. The accommodations were excellent for us it was the local delivery people who really let us down. Also maybe book the rate that does not include breakfast then when they charge you for it it will be ok.

The hotel is very comfortable and very comfortable. We had asked for a breakfast to take it, we gave it, and very nice!

I have lots of things to say about this guesthouse. It was my first time staying at a guesthouse but I must say that the experience was awesome 👌. I loved every moment here and the staff was great too. It felt so good staying at this place and being surrounded by nature made it an unforgettable experience. I even went for a jog with two members of the staff the morning before check out; around 5am. I would definitely recommend this guesthouse for those using Malelane gate to get to Kruger NationalPark. The price is worth it too.

Especially good to spend time after the cruger, take the luxury number

Nice place, friendly staff, great food. A little bit of road noise but it's fine.

Traumhafte schöner Aufenthalt mit Elefanten und Flusspferd besuche . Wir kommen wieder .

Great conditions

Excellent

Cleanliness of the room is ok as long as you don't look on top of the wardrobe... Service is very poor from breakfast to dinner ...next day, few of us felt sick after eating pudding at dinner...waiters are in an other world most of the time and expecting you to tips them for buffet service... The front door light was broken. Just good for pick up and drop of to krugger.

From the Gestapo to the gate of Phabeni Park Kruger 15 minutes, it is convenient. We organized a great safari and we met big5. Modern repair, convenient pillows and mattress. In the room we had a huge cockroach. The bathroom has no door/subsection from the bedroom.
