Nice to be in the bush and to have a mine private pool (although it was quite cold). Room is basic but very good bed! The only thing was that there were constantly animals on your roof so that woke us up.

Comfortable stay

Stayed here for 1 night on our way to Kruger National Park but we wish it was longer! Checked in around 7pm and we were greeted by a friendly woman Memory (sp?) after using the door bell at the reception. The room itself (and bathroom) was very clean and spacious and the bed was very comfortable! TV had a lot of channels, cooking equipment was all provided for cooking inside using the stove or outside with the grill. It's a bit of a drive on a gravel road from the main road but not very difficult to find. To the Crocodile Bridge gate, it's also not very far. Lovely place!

Recommandons chaudement cet hôtel !

Excellent séjour dans cet établissement. L’ensemble du personnel était accueillant, prévenant et disponible. Avons beaucoup apprécié les 13 jours passés dans cet hôtel. Très bon rapport qualité prix. Accès au parc du Kruger en une quinzaine de minutes. Splash pool privatif très agréable et belle piscine pour tous les clients.

Goede prijs/kwaliteit, leuke sfeer

Mooie schone kamers met een keukentje, balkon met braai en sommige kamers hebben zelfs een eigen zwembadje. Ook is er een algemeen zwembad met ligbedden, parasols, terras en braai. Staff was erg aardig en behulpzaam. Mindere punten van deze accommodatie waren de douche die niet goed in te stellen was (en die na aangeven ook niet werd gerepareerd) en de WiFi die niet werkte. Deze plek is zeker aan te bevelen.

Super schöne fünf Tage

Wir waren vier Nächte dort. Uns wurde die Nashorn Lodge zugeteilt. Super schön gemacht eben so wie man sich eine Unterkunft "im Busch" vorstellt. Das schöne immer mal wieder stehen Warzenschweine, Gnus, Zebras oder Impalas vor der Veranda. Einfach herrlich. Idealer Ausgangspunkt zum Krüger. Ca. 20km zu fahren - top. Ein ganz liebes Dankeschön geht an Joy die uns den Aufenthalt zu angenehm wie möglich gemacht hat. Von den eigentlichen Besitzern haben wir die ganze Zeit nichts gehört - die haben wohl noch ein Restaurant im Marloth Park. Von daher war Joy unsere Gastgeberin was sie mehr wie gut macht. Frühstück ist sehr einfach aber völlig ausreichend. Wir würden für den Krüger wieder diese Unterkunft wählen.
