Beautiful views of the Crocodile river and convenient location to the Crocodile Bridge gate. Rooms are spacious and air-conditioned, beds very comfortable. Great swimming pool. Kitchen a little small and located out of air-conditioned area but manageable. Family owned and operated with great service. Highly recommended!

The location is great, right next to Kruger and we were lucky to have hippos cavorting in the river right opposite. The lighting in the rooms could be brighter and the shower temperature was difficult to control.

Great location, great staff and ownership. Unit 1 and 2 are nice, but need a little attention to raise them to the standard of the other rooms.
