Mhlati Guest Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"Mhlati Guest Cottages was amazing. Jeremy was awesome, Helping is with car trouble and providing us with recommendations for dinner. Breakfast was fantastic and cooked to order.

Crocodile Kruger Safari Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I think everything was amazing in this lodge! The cottage that I was had refrigerator, microwave, airfryer, dishes and everything for you to cook by yourself and make your own food (which I think marvelous!). The bed was absolutely comfortable and the location was perfect! near the crocodile river and among many wild animals around."

Kruger Park Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"Best hostel in Kruger!!! Was upgraded to a private room at no additional cost, but also slept in the dorm room for a night and it was great! Rooms are clean, towels are provided, showers are strong, staff is very welcoming!!! People that stay here as guests are also friendly. Dinner is included and pretty good! But the highlight of it all was the 3-day camping trip to Kruger Park. It was my first one, so I didn’t know what to expect, but it was an AMAZING experience! Shoutout to our guide Robert who knew absolutely everything about all the animals in the park, definitely made the trip a lot more interesting!! 10/10 recommend staying here, will definitely be back!!"
