So helpful and caring , we felt really welcome. Meeting zebra and other animals from the deck, really cool. We could not recommend more"

Service, food, the room, the communal areas were all perfect! And it was just a few minutes drive to Kruger National Park gate!"

Top Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park Hotel Reviews
aha Skukuza Safari Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"Have stayed here several times and will continue to do so when coming to Kruger. It's a great property , really comfortable rooms with everything you need, and you cannot beat the location!"
"The Kruger Gate Hotel really is the dream hotel and we honestly cannot recommend it highly enough.
From the moment we arrived, everything about our stay was outstanding. The hotel itself is beautiful and the location is simply incredible. There cannot be many places in the world where you can relax in a swimming pool while watching hippos and elephants at the watering hole. It was one of those experiences that you have to keep reminding yourself is actually real.
The food was another huge highlight. Both breakfast and dinner were incredible, with an amazing amount of choice and consistently excellent quality. Every meal felt like an experience in itself and we genuinely looked forward to seeing what was on offer each day.
The entertainment was also amazing and added so much to the whole experience. It was wonderful to feel immersed in the local culture while enjoying our evenings at the hotel. One moment that will stay with me was hearing the staff sing The Lion Sleeps Tonight while we were eating. I’ll admit, I even got a little glassy-eyed. It was such a special and unexpectedly emotional moment and perfectly captured the magic of being there.
The staff were absolutely outstanding throughout our stay. Everyone was friendly, welcoming and attentive and they all played a part in making the hotel feel so special.
We also booked our safaris through the hotel and they were incredibly well planned, exciting and undoubtedly some of the highlights of our trip."

Kruger Shalati - Train on the Bridge and Garden Suites
10/10 Excellent
"An incredible experience from beginning to end. After the post-booking questionnaire on my favourite tipple, my expectations were high for the upcoming trip to Shalati. Those expectations were exceeded in the superior level of service, quality of food/drink, the room and the overall Shalati experience. The included game drives were great, knowing in advance that luck plays a significant part in what you see or don't see. My thanks and appreciation to Angel, Mzwandile and Tenashe for making the stay so memorable."
"A wonderful stay in Marloth Park. Great lodge location and room with animals wandering outside. Very friendly and helpful team, including Natalie, Cecilia, Joseph and Amos. Tasty braai and lots of choice for breakfast. Thanks to everyone helping bring this Kruger trip to another eventful close."
"Super accueil ambiance familiale et chaleureuse. Personnel courtois et avenant. Expérience exceptionnelle! Nous avons vu plusieurs animaux grâce à notre guide. Nourriture exceptionnelle! Site sublime en nature."
"Superbe endroit! La nourriture est excellente. Nous avons eu la chance de voir pleins d’animaux dont 2 rhinocéros blancs. Le personnel est sympathique et toujours prête à nous aider. Nous recommandons vivement!"
"We had a wonderful stay! We honestly booked without expectations and were blown away. The staff has your whole day planned and makes sure you are cared for and pampered the entire time. The massage therapist was amazing! Our guide and tracker (Mark and Nickel) made the drives completely memorable. Our butler was also very professional and accommodating to our preferences! Owners take pride in their property and went out to their way to make sure our experience was perfect. My family highly recommends!"
"What a lovely safari stay. From the knowledgeable guides on the game drives to the friendly accomodating staff. Perfect starting point for your safari adventures"
