    The staff here are so friendly and always ready to help, which is awesome. 👍 the spot where this venue is located alongside the Crocodile River is just stunning! Plus, it's only a 15-minute stroll to the Inkwazi Shopping Centre, making it super convenient.

    Thanks for a fairly nice stay of my holidays. It has particularly good and fantastic location to the restaurant or the front door. And it's nestled in a beautiful old building near to a great garden on the bank the Crocodile River and overlooking Kruger, and the shopping center and the Kruger Park...

    This lodge is located in a beautiful natural area, just on the edge of a national park. the rooms are cozy and the bathrooms are clean. the staff is friendly and helpful, and the breakfast is delicious. guests can admire a lovely view of the river, and there is a deck where one can relax and enjoy the surroundings. the lodge has a unique collection of memorabilia and antiques that add to its charm.

    The parking area is not secure.

    This hotel is a hidden gem on the river bank. The attention to detail in the decor is impressive and adds to the atmosphere. The staff are friendly and go out of their way to make your stay memorable. The rooms with the best view are worth every penny, allowing you to watch wildlife right at the end of the garden.

    Breakfast was not up to par.

    The view from the deck was amazing, overlooking the river with crocodiles, hippos, elephants and other animals in sight! The gardens were beautifully maintained and the staff were always friendly and helpful. , the quirky decorations in the rooms and common areas added a unique touch to the experience.

    The food was not up to standard and lacked variety, especially for children. the gratuity policy seemed a bit excessive and the cleanliness of the place left something to be desired.

The staff was very helpful, especially when it came to giving me transportation and parking tips. Lastly, the breakfast was delicious and had plenty of options.

    We felt right at home at this hotel. The location was perfect for a relaxing getaway, with a beautiful view of the river and the opportunity to spot various animals right from the deck. The staff was friendly and accommodating, especially the two hosts Johan and Duffy. The attention to detail in this place was impressive, from the comfortable and clean rooms to the delicious and value-for-money food. We were made to feel special throughout our stay.

    This hotel is recommended for everyone.

    We felt right at home at this lodge, with friendly staff and a cute atmosphere. The location was perfect for relaxation and wildlife viewing. The meals, although not perfect, provided a taste of home-cooked comfort. The lodge's deck offered a fine view of the surrounding wildlife. Despite a few minor issues, we would recommend this lodge to others. a pleasant stay.

    What a stunning view! the patio overlooking the river was worth every penny. the complementary drinks and dinner were a nice touch. the staff went above and beyond, waiting for us when we ran late due to traffic. Plus, the rooms were warm and cozy- perfect for a business trip.

    The smoking situation was uncomfortable. It's a smoking lodge, so keep that in mind if you're sensitive to it.

    This hotel is truly a hidden gem on the banks of the Crocodile River. The views from the spacious deck are absolutely breathtaking, especially when enjoying my morning tea. The friendly staff and their attention to detail made my stay even more enjoyable. The rooms with the best view were comfortable and had everything I needed. And let's not forget about the breakfast for chips - a delicious way to start the day!

    No complaints, everything was just perfect!
