Akani is a great host and if you need anything he will bend over backwards to help! You can park right next to your chalet, which is very helpful. - I personally hate lodges where you have to park a distance away! - There is a pub nearby that gets noisy at times, but if you run a fan it drowns out the noise. The property is very close to the main road and is very safe! ##### Donald Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### M 31 Dec 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good Accomodation.

Miles better from what I had thought could be possible so close to Kruger. The cottage was in pristine condition and Doctor was a very friendly host. I would highly recommend staying here for comfort with the benefit of closeby amenities and access to Kruger gates only 10 minutes drive away. ##### A ### 8/10 Good #### Gavin 25 Sept 2025 ##### Gavin Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Manyatta Rock Camp-Kwa Madwala Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hectorspruit-Hotels-Manyatta-Rock-Camp-Kwa-Madwala-Private-Game-Reserve.h4434499.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Quinta do Lago](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quinta-Do-Lago-Loule-Hotels.0-n6157706-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Oliver's Restaurant & Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/White-River-Hotels-Olivers-Restaurant-Lodge.h3886653.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Prague](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prague-Hotels.d180014.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Villas Caribbean](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Caribbean-Villas.d6022969-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Kambaku River Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malelane-Hotels-Kambaku-River-Lodge.h16217157.Hotel-Information) > - [travelodgeuk Hotels in Ramsgate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ramsgate-Hotels-Travelodge-UK.0-0-d5663--bTravelodgeUK.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Romantic Hotels in Grade](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Grade-Hotels-Romantic-Hotel.0-0-d3000716217-tRomanticHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels with Parking in Chippenham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chippenham-Hotels-Hotel-With-Free-Parking.0-0-d182487-thotelwithfreeparking.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [5 Porters Court, Luxury 2 bed villa, 5 mins walk to beach, including Beach Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holetown-Hotels-5-Porters-Court.h32393442.Hotel-Information) > - [Muluwa Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/White-River-Hotels-Muluwa-Lodge.h21200171.Hotel-Information) > - [Sports Hotels in Mexico](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Mexico-Adventure-Sport-Hotel.0-0-d117-tAdventureSportHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > - [Spa Hotels in Bishop's Stortford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bishops-Stortford-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d4572-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Villas Cornwall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cornwall-Villas.d6046193-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Ndhula Luxury Tented Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/White-River-Hotels-Ndhula-Luxury-Tented-Lodge.h38833772.Hotel-Information) > - [Destiny Lodge White River](https://www.expedia.co.uk/White-River-Hotels-Destiny-Lodge-White-River.h8158181.Hotel-Information) > - [Treehouses London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Treehouses.d178279-aaTreehouses.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Inns Ambleside](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Inns.d4270-aaInns.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Hotels with Gym in St. Johns Wood](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Johns-Wood-London-Hotels-Hotel-With-Gym.0-n6251359-0-thotelwithgym.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > - [Flights from St. Thomas (STT) to St. George's (GND)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/stt/gnd/st-thomas-to-st-georges) ### Cars > - [Car hire in Puerto de Mogan](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Puerto-De-Mogan.d6357956.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > - [Things to do in Parchal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Parchal.d6048764.Travel-Guide-Activities) > - [Things to do in Rio de Janeiro State](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Rio-De-Janeiro-State.d6052641.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > - [Oak Island Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oak-Island.d6164970.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General ---
