AfriCamps Hoedspruit

The accommodation provides comfortable beds, well-prepared breakfast and braai packs, and great location near Hoedspruit town. However, some guests felt it was overpriced and lacked value for money.

Beautiful tent with hot tob and lake view. Accomadation was clean and cosy. We also ate one of the best pizza's we ever had at Africamps. Very nice helpfull and polite guy at the reception. Highly recommended to stay 1 or 2 nights when in the direction to Kruger. Even when you are not into Glamping, as this is even more luxurious than normal glamping we ever had.

My husband and I got married on the 8th of December 2022, so we are literally newlyweds. Because my husband had to continue with work the next week, I booked us in at the Africamps in Hoedspruit, thinking that at least we would have a 2-night mini (one and only) honeymoon weekend. When we arrived, we went to reception to meet a very friendly lady, who told us that we were in tent one. Tent one right at the road, it may have been on the road, anyway that is not even what makes me so upset. Our neighbours in tent two … Because we had arrived late on that evening we basically ate and went to bed. The next morning, we woke up to probably the worst day in all my travel history. We were met with chaos. There must have been at least 20 people at the next-door tent at any given time, now I am fully aware that you are in the business of renting of holiday spaces, and the 20 odd people had obviously more then one tent that they had rented and therefore to my husband and I seemed untouchable. The neighbours had literally taken over our camping space as well as theirs, they were fishing, screaming, and shouting at already 09:30am. It is lovely to have family holidays, however, these people were already drinking by 09:30. Their kids were going crazy running in and out our camping space, so absolutely no use of the hot tub for us. The one child kept on running naked and peeing everywhere, and I mean everywhere. It the meaning of fish wives have any place in your minds you can imagine the carrying on and screaming of kids and even adults When my husband had enough of the neighbours consistently in our space, he went across and asked them to please just stay in their spot and that we had paid for our space and stay just as much as they had. This was a bad idea on our part. From that moment on the neighbours, harassed, bullied, and continued to make even more noise. Not only did they carry on this way, but they told their children to do the same. The irony of this is that the Main guy that bullied us was called…..Bully by his family. They also were catching fish and not releasing fish but hiding the fish that nobody would see that they caught one. Every now and then what I assume was a staff member would pop their head in with our neighbours and we thought this is great they are going to tell them to quiet down, but that never happened. Our theory is that because this family rented more then one tent they seemed to be treated like gold. I know at most part this is probably not your concern at all, but the big question is why privacy screens are not installed there or something in that vein. And there should be some sort of “directional rule” when it comes to these tents that are on top of one another. If you park on the left your entertainment space etc is on the right. My husband and I spent 90% of our time in our tent, barely slept thinking that the neighbours were going to do something to our car, we left early just so that we would
