Ukuthula Bush Lodge
4.7/544 Reviews
We stayed at Ukuthula Lodge for three nights and had a fantastic time. The team at the lodge were very friendly and kind, and Fabian went above and beyond to accommodate any requests we had, even on short notice. Their breakfast options like Eggs Benedict were a great surprise in such a location, and everything was cleaned to a very high standard. The dinners were a bit repetitive so if you are a foodie it might help to rent a car to access some other spots as you can't walk through the bush late at night!
Emhosheni River Lodge
4.7/546 Reviews
It's really our pleasure to stay at such a wonderful place for three nights. The host Dave and Leandra are treating us like family and most importantly, their warming hospitality, sweet considetation, well-knowledged in wildlife and sincere service do leave us unforgetable memory. We have been traveling to many places and staying at so-called luxury hotels, but this stay is absolutely the best we ever experienced. The location is at Great Kruger National Park which is good. If you are lucky, you can see Big Five aroud the lodge. But most of time, you can spot Giraffe, Zebra, Elephant, Hippos, Kudus, baboon and Lions... The food is way to great. We have three dinners at the lodge and I believe it's the best meal in our SA trip. Dave and his team cook for every client and the awesome view just in front of the river is unbelievable. Too good to be true! Strongly recommended and must stay when you visit Kruger NP.
Naledi Game Lodges
5/545 Reviews
If we could give 6 stars for our 3 day stay at Naledi we would! My wife and I visited Naledi for 3 days in January 2025. We were incredibly well taken care of by Marise, Matthew, Lilian, Decide and Chef Dudu throughout our stay. The food was delicious, our room in the Paperbark suite and the entire property is meticulously maintained, and they made incredible efforts to make our trip as enjoyable as possible. They succeeded! The game drives with Oupa and Excellent exceeded every expectation. They are true experts at guiding and tracking the majestic animals in the Balule reserve, and just incredibly lovely gentlemen to spend time with. We saw so much - yes, the Big 5, but also warthogs and hyenas and giraffes and hippos and zebras and impala herds and beautiful birds; sunset and sunrise and a rainbow one morning took our breath away. On our final sundowners, Oupa and Excellent took us by the Olifant River where we enjoyed the sunset and drinks surrounded by hippos and a grazing rhino. Each day felt like a treasure hunt - we gave very little input, allowing Oupa and Excellent to do their thing, and loved every minute. This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime trip for my wife and I, as we were visiting South Africa from the US for a friend's wedding. I went back and forth between the more well-known reserves (Sabi Sands, Timbavati) and was unsure what we'd be able to see in the summer season (our visit was in late January) - I'm so glad we chose Naledi and if there's ever an opportunity to visit South Africa again, we will be back!
Unembeza Boutique Lodge & Spa
4.6/551 Reviews
We had the most amazing time here, it’s a quiet hideaway and we immediately felt like family, the service was great , the food was okay, chef definitely needs some more training but overall extremely satisfied. They helped with everything we needed, massage was wonderful to!
Sausage Tree Safari Camp
4.9/541 Reviews
We loved everything about Sausage Tree. It's a smaller camp with only five tents. Not only did we quickly bond with the amazing staff, but we were included in Christmas Eve dinner with the owners' family. It was a Christmas my family will never forget. Our guide, Themba was fun, knowledgeable and adventurous. We went off road many times to turn off the engine and leisurely watch the animals. Sundowners by the Oliphant River, dinners in the fire-lit Boma and coming home to our comfortable tent and bed; we all kept commenting how lucky we were to stay in such a special place. We had tears in our eyes as we said our farewells to James, Sonja and the wonderful staff.
eKhaya Bush Villa
4.3/59 Reviews
This place is South Africa's best kept secret. I have never raved about a lodge like I will about this one. Everything was great and I highly, highly recommend you stay here. Before I get to my own experience, I would advise you to forgo, at least in part, the fancy schmancy safari lodges that cost up to $1,000 a night and stay here instead because it's just as nice if not nicer and you get WAY more value for your money and can still book guided safaris from here and see all of the animals your heart desires. What's more, you are near the world's third largest canyon here with a breathtakingly beautiful boat ride. Use eKhaya Bush Villa as your base to then explore both Kruger National Park and the canyon area. Now to my individual experience. To put it mildly, my trip to both Cape Town and Johannesburg did not go well and I was at the end of my rope. I had intended to stay at eKhaya Bush Villa two nights. Those two nights turned into four because it became my oasis of tranquility and beauty. I don't know how old the place is but everything looks BRAND NEW. Claire, the owner, is a hospitality goddess. Truly. Hearing of my unpleasant experiences in Cape Town and Johannesburg, she bent over backwards to make me - and all other guests - feel at home and she helped me salvage my vacation (my experiences in Cape Town and Johannesburg were so bad I was thinking of flying home to the U.S. early). I am a HUGE fan of Claire and eKhaya and you will be too. The rooms are very spacious, the beds very comfortable, the bathrooms are very spacious, the grounds are beautiful, the food is good and the staff friendly and helpful. AND it's in a secured estate so you are 100% safe!! This was important to me after my travails elsewhere. Whether you are a single traveler like me or part of a larger group, you should know you will be both safe and at home here. I can't recommend this place enough. My only regret is that Claire and eKhaya aren't closer to me in Los Angeles. I'd stay here as often as I could! Lucky you that you will get the chance to. Enjoy!
