You will be in the midle of the savana. All the confort you can expect with a very exclusive and personal attention of the staf. Just be aware that there is a 11km of a dirty road to get to the place, in very bad conditions. Or you hire the hotel transfer service or you rent a 4x4 car to get there. About the hotel it is wonderful, the views, the swimming pool, the confort , the cleaning, every thing perfect. ##### Antonio Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Benjamin Jan 3, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### highly recommended We had such a wonderful stay at the lodge. The place is simply stunning. Erika and Luca are fantastic hosts that make you immediately comfortable and feeling at home. And once they move in the kitchen they only reappear with succulent dishes (of course, of italian flavor). ##### Benjamin Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### EVANDRO Nov 5, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hospedagem incrível, de surpreender pelo local super privilegiado isolado em meio a natureza selvagem da Africa. Local ótimo para descanso e aproveitar para fazer um Safari e ficar observando a paisagem por horas de tão agradável que é esse Lodge.

The service provided was beyond reproach ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Els Mar 6, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pure luxury among the wildlife you dream about! Our stay at the Elephant Game Lodge was simply amazing... Seeing a giraffe, elephants, baboons... while just relaxing on the lodge's terrace cannot be described in a 1000 words. The hosts spoiled us with the best Italian and South African food, the best luxury breakfasts and the most wonderful excursions to Kruger park and Blyde River Canyon. Our room was large and comfortable with a beautiful big bathroom (double shower, large bath), and we truly enjoyed waking up to the sun and the sounds of the bush. Nothing we asked was too much, the service was absolutely splendid ! The safaris by day and night and seeing the big five right in front of you are experiences we will forever be grateful for. ##### Els Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 5, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Parfait Un cadre fantastique, un accueil merveilleux, une cuisine délicieuse, Erika et Luca se plient en 4 pour rendre votre séjour inoubliable. Une adresse à recommander pour passer quelques jours en famille ou en couple après un séjour dans le parc Kruger. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1361-pfc4e7510-20c0-11e8-8364-4e5751ef2f19-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1424-pfd4ece10-20c0-11e8-9b80-6a03179474b2-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1708-pfc46fb00-20c0-11e8-9b80-6a03179474b2-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### ヒデアキ, 日本 Jan 18, 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities サファリ付き食事付きの内容だったが、サファリの内容は動物が少なく最低だった。夕食は8時過ぎに始まり、次の料理が出てくるのが30分以上かかり間がありすぎて興ざめだった。 ##### ヒデアキ Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [ibis Styles Athens Routes](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-Athens-Routes.h36122912.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Parkway Toronto North Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Sheraton-Parkway-Toronto-North-Hotel-Suites.h1201459.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Squamish](https://www.expedia.ca/Squamish-Hotels.d57377.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hostels New York](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hostels.d178293-aaHostels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Westmark Anchorage Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Anchorage-Hotels-Westmark-Anchorage-Hotel.h1512.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western St. Catharines Hotel & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Best-Western-St-Catharines-Hotel-Conference-Centre.h220266.Hotel-Information) > > [Palm Royale Resort - Soma Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Hurghada-Hotels-SENTIDO-Palm-Royale.h1178537.Hotel-Information) > > [The Outpost & Pel's Post](https://www.expedia.ca/Kruger-National-Park-Hotels-The-Outpost-Lodge.h912179.Hotel-Information) > > [Griffintown Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Griffintown-Hotel.h49302662.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Acadia National Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Acadia-National-Park-Hotels.0-l6129938-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Canton](https://www.expedia.ca/Canton-Hotels.d10422.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Tocumen (PTY) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/pty/yvr/panama-city-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Seattle (SEA) to Los Angeles (BUR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/sea/bur/seattle-to-burbank) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Newark (EWR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ewr/toronto-to-newark-liberty-intl-airport) > > [flights from heathrow airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/lhr/flights-from-heathrow-airport) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mia/toronto-to-miami) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Roatan (RTB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/rtb/toronto-to-roatan) > > [Flights from Cancun (CUN) to Veracruz (VER)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/cun/ver/cancun-to-veracruz) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Seattle (SEA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/sea/vancouver-to-seattle) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Limón (LIO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/lio/vancouver-to-limon-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Rome (FCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/fco/montreal-to-rome) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Muscat (MCT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/mct/calgary-to-muscat) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Hannover (HAJ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/haj/toronto-to-hannover) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Montreal (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yul/toronto-to-montreal) ### Cars ### Activities ### Vacation Rentals ### General
