Excellent hotel. Staff were friendly & helpful. Food was very good. Rooms comfortable, very clean and up to date decor. Could not fault the hospitality at this resort. Would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone needing accommodation at the gateway to Kruger National Park.

Checked in. SABI RIVER SUN ! PEOPLE CAN RUIN YOUR HOLIDAY!! Went to room. Opened curtain. Pitch black view from room & dead quiet So called reception & asked for a change of room. To like pool facing.now in the morning I open curtains Yoh! My view is a car park! Reminding me of horrible urban areas. I didn’t pay for an expensive accommodation to come see a car park. I paid for a soothing relaxing view Not a view to raise my blood pressure! I am livid. This hotel was supposed to be a highlight! It’s a bloody ripoff ! Night manager had audacity to give me this room . As he knew my concern was view ! Room has damp smell. Have a noisy fridge that didn’t allow for a good sleep .

Good family vibe and close to Kruger National Park great for a family with kids. Fantastic staff service downfall is the food unfortunately and price for locals. Buffet menu changes I saw meals from lunch like left overs being served again for supper for the price I expected much exquisite tasting food. Construction still happening they should advise this upon bookings. More a tourist attraction minus the food as that would be disappointing even the "braai" evening was not good with the sides so a bit sad the relish tasted like canned relish without being spruced up at least not a great way to show off South African cuisine. Completely over priced for the local South Africans wouldn't pay out of my own money to come here. To pay R40 for a mini can of coke etc is just extreme hence more affordable for tourists

We were here 4 nights. Did not enjoyed it very much. Small room with queen size beds (to small with my kids) Very small bathroom. Rooms were clean, that’s a plus but they could do some maintenance! Food very poor.. would not come back here! To expansive for what you get! There is a golfcourse (very nice!) There is a pool but it was to cold to use it unfortunately.

We stayed in the hotel for 4 nights over school holidays. From the moment we arrived, we loved our stay. The staff are friendly, the food was good but most of all the most beautiful setting. We had amazing sightings from the new Hide of hippos and crocs and water birds. The new Padel and Pickleball courts are full and we had a great time.

Resort remains very good in general. Sesonke Restaurant is still very mediocre despite numerous complaints and bad reviews for years. Southern Sun F&B department don't seem to bother with improvements, maybe because foreign tourists come in bus loads with nowhere else to go for meals. Therefore, they keep it going with its limited menu, poor buffet selection and lacking in value for money. On a positive note, timeshare units, property and golf course are all excellent in every respect.

The place is a large resort with golf, tennis, etc and various apartments. My review applies only to the hotel. The resort obviously caters to wealthy visitors to the Kruger Park. I found the hotel replete with a beautifully manicured golf course and very high-end cabins as well as the hotel itself to be disappointing. It is probably the only one available for tours, and it is professionally run, and is satisfactory for lodging. But we had been staying at hotels characterized by happy, always smiling and very helpful staffs, but in the two days I never saw single staff person smile, nor for that matter, the wealthy guests. Many seemed dour and unhappy. The staff almost seemed proud of the fact that they have no ATM machine (the town is too far to walk for one). I suspect that this is a management issue. Our rooms were adequate but nothing memorable. Our group of 9 was unanimous in our disappointment, and everybody commented that the food here was by far the worst of the trip, overcooked and tasteless.

The timeshare bungalows are in excellent condition after the upgrade. Golf course is good and the resort entertainment is great. Tennis, golf, pedal, lawn bowls. Close to Kruger Park with easy access. Game drives available, if you're that way inclined
