Motswari Private Game Reserve Resort by NEWMARK
- Location: Bushbuckridge
- Review: Staff was super friendly and food was good, it was simple and well executed. We thought the whole setup was perfect for.a.safari, it's clean and comfortable but not luxurious and it's what you want when you are in the middle of.the bushes. The room was clean and you can drink the water they give you. 0 mosquitoes at this time of the year. Our guide Andris was fantastic, very knowledgeable and always in a great mood. We were able to see the big 5 although it seemed hard to see lions we got to..., by Martin, September 1, 2017, rated 10/10 Excellent
Simbavati Hilltop Lodge
- Location: Bushbuckridge
- Review: Thanks Simbavati for an amazing stay! The staff were all so nice. My boyfriend had cheese allergy, so every meal they either made him something separate or tweaked it for him. Food was excellent. We each had a massage and it was reasonably priced. Our tent was #1. Although it didn't have a clear river view, we had elephants visit us multiple times in our front yard. And last night they prepared our room to celebrate our anniversary., by Anonymous traveller, January 31, 2019, rated 10/10 Excellent

Tintswalo Safari
- Location: Bushbuckridge
- Review: What a fantastic experience! The staff at Tintswalo were more than accomadating. They recognized our honeymoon with a private wine cellar dinner and spa lunch! We are both big foodies as well! The dining was exquisite. The game viewing in the Manyeleti was superb. Both of the Tintswalo guides Christof and Allister worked tirelessly to find the big 5. They went out of their way with additional hikes. My wife and I were particularly thrilled following the lioness and her pride while we..., by Chris, October 22, 2017, rated 10/10 Excellent
Bushbaby River Lodge
- Location: Hoedspruit
- Review: It was a bit different from what we expected, but definitely in a good way. The owners are both Dutch and they were super helpful and kind from the beginning. There are only 6 rooms in total and we stayed in the Elephant Room. The room was spacious, beautiful and clean. We especially appreciate the fact that it had both a fan and and AC, as it could get quite warm in South Africa., by Jack, March 25, 2018, rated 10/10 Excellent
Elephant Plains Game Lodge
- Location: Bushbuckridge
- Review: Fantastic location in Sabi Sands Game Reserve. Guides were incredibly knowledgeable and went out of their way to make our trip perfect. Up close to leopards, lions, rhino and buffalo. Food was excellent! Lovely quiet property with view over a waterhole. Two swimming pools with one close to our room was very convenient. Beautiful deck around the restaurant. Such a great experience that my partner proposed ❤️ Perfect in every way!, by Alex, November 29, 2019, rated 10/10 Excellent

Simbavati River Lodge
- Location: Bushbuckridge
- Review: We loved our 3 nights stay! The whole staff was very friendly and present when needed. We loved our drives with Sarah and Joseph, their knowledge, patience and enthusiasm made the drives extra special. They made great effort to see the animals we wanted to see on each drives. We saw the big 5 from really close, multiple times! We loved the terrace in our lodge facing the river, during breaks we would watch elephants, waterbuck and hippos cross the river. The food was diverse and very good...., by Noémie, September 25, 2026, rated 10/10 Excellent
Kapama River Lodge
- Location: Hoedspruit
- Review: My husband and I stayed for three nights and had such a fantastic time! The lodge was beautiful, our room spacious, staff helpful, and the food was really good ! Our ranger Zaan and tracker Philip were great and we saw the Big 5 within 2 drives. A two to three night stay would be more than enough time if safari is your only goal. Otherwise the pool is nice to hang out by. We went to the spa one morning after our morning drive & breakfast. We booked the “detox and destress moor..., by Jacquelyn, November 30, 2017, rated 10/10 Excellent
