Netter Pool, tolles Essen, viel Platz bzgl. Übernachtung und netter Aussichtspunkt in der Anlage für Tierbeobachtungen. Absolut empfehlenswert. Anfahrt zwar über ungeteerte Straße, diese aber auch für "normale" Autos kein Problem. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Sylvie 7 May 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### BEAUX JARDINS AVEC PHACOCHERES IMPALAS ET NIALAS game drive très pro.bush walk sympathique.nourriture très bonne et heureusement car sentier d'accès sur 6 km très dégradé.chambre simple, douche ok mais eau très boueuse à la sortie du robinet...lions audibles le matin et le soir (5h, 21h).brai le soir très bon et copieux.Nous avions reservé un self cattering et avons eu une chambre avec petit dej compris pour compenser.prévénu par mail directement par l'hotel avant le départ.petit dej buffet excellent et très varié. ##### Sylvie ### 10/10 Excellent #### Annelie, Styrsö 26 Feb 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ett litet paradis precis utanför gaten Orpen Ett litet paradis/oas utanför gaten Orpen. Möttes vid incheckningen av dottern Alida som driver denna lodge med sin far. En fantastisk vacker trädgård med mango hängandes i träden. Vildsvin och impalor som går och betar i trädgården. Möttes första morgonen av en giraff och hennes unge som kom gåendes precis utanför inhägnaden. Maten var fantastisk och till ett bra pris. Grannlodgen har safaris med en spårade, oerhört spännande. Alida arrangerar detta. Vi fyra som var där under tre dygn kan verkligen rekommendera Matumi game Lodge . ##### Annelie ### 6/10 Okay #### Jeannie, Brooklyn, NY, USA 18 Jul 2011 Disliked: Staff & service #### Friendly, low-key family-run lodge close to Kruger National Park The family and staff who run this hotel are friendly, hard-working multi-taskers. They gave good advice and didn't try to sell us anything extra. About the only complaint we had was the fact that no one told us the gate was not electronic. The unit was spacious and clean. Our meals were cafeteria-style with a good selection. It would have been nice to have a heater in the bedroom. The wildlife (springbok, warthogs, etc.) roaming around the grounds was a nice intro to the game reserve. ##### Jeannie ### 10/10 Excellent #### F, Netherlands 8 May 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Matumi game lodge A very pleasant stay at this lodge. Good advices from the owner and her daughter on what to visit. Very helpful to all our questions. Our chalet was well equipped with everything we needed. Kind personnel in the restaurant and a good breakfast with options from the kitchen as well as a buffet. Possibility to make a game drive direct opposite the main gate; A lot of animals seen under a professional guidance. ##### F ### 10/10 Excellent #### Noël, REUNION 23 Mar 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Matumi Game Lodge Nelspruit L'hôtel n'est pas situé dans le parc Kruger comme mentionné sur son site, mais dans une réserve privée. Une piste de 5 km en terre (15 minutes de route) permet d'y accéder, elle gardée, mais reste ouverte la nuit, ce qui n'est le cas du Kruger. Compter 35 min pour aller à la porte Orpen. La piscine en basse saison n'est pas assez filtrée. Le logement en "self catering" est très spacieux, agréable, très bien équipé pour faire la cuisine, avec un grand frigo congélateur. Le restaurant stylé brousse haut de gamme est très bon et au même prix qu'en ville.Le personnel est très accueillant. Le site agréable et reposant. ##### Noël ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Palace of the Lost City at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Palace-Of-The-Lost-City-At-Sun-City-Resort.h392096.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Touws-River-Hotels-Aquila-Private-Game-Reserve-Spa.h6347327.Hotel-Information) > > [Kwa Maritane Bush Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Kwa-Maritane-Bush-Lodge.h526966.Hotel-Information) > > [Sebatana Private Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vaalwater-Hotels-Sebatana-Private-Reserve.h32459379.Hotel-Information) > > [Pumba Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Grahamstown-Hotels-Pumba-Private-Game-Reserve.h2319463.Hotel-Information) > > [Mhondoro Safari Lodge & Villa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vaalwater-Hotels-Mhondoro-Safari-Lodge-Villa.h11522151.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun City Hotel and Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-Soho-Hotel-Casino-At-Sun-City-Resort.h527184.Hotel-Information) > > [Woodbury Tented Camp - Amakhala Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sidbury-Hotels-Woodbury-Tented-Camp-Amakhala-Game-Reserve.h9642577.Hotel-Information) > > [Botlierskop Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Klein-Brak-River-Hotels-Botlierskop-Private-Game-Reserve.h2991039.Hotel-Information) > > [Mabula Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bela-Bela-Hotels-Mabula-Game-Lodge.h1559026.Hotel-Information) > > [Tsala Treetop Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Plettenberg-Bay-Hotels-Tsala-Treetop-Lodge.h1030430.Hotel-Information) > > [Paternoster Dunes Boutique Guesthouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paternoster-Hotels-Paternoster-Dunes-Boutique-Guesthouse.h31911613.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cascades Hotel at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Cascades-Hotel-At-Sun-City-Resort.h9515.Hotel-Information) > > [Tshukudu Bush Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Tshukudu-Bush-Lodge.h1201423.Hotel-Information) > > [Gondwana Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mossel-Bay-Hotels-Gondwana-Game-Reserve.h4145102.Hotel-Information) > > [Hartford House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mooirivier-Hotels-Hartford-House.h27344764.Hotel-Information) > > [Ivory Tree Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Ivory-Tree-Game-Lodge.h5994597.Hotel-Information) > > [Kariega Game Reserve - Main Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kenton-On-Sea-Hotels-Kariega-Game-Reserve-Main-Lodge.h4576469.Hotel-Information) > > [Margate Beach Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margate-Hotels-Margate-Beach-Club.h9458217.Hotel-Information) > > [Lush Private Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Lush-Private-Lodge.h24940930.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kingdom Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moses-Kotane-Hotels-The-Kingdom-Resort.h6792618.Hotel-Information) > > [Glen Afric Country Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Broederstroom-Hotels-Glen-Afric-Country-Lodge.h27136993.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Polokwane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Polokwane-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Polokwane.h17771611.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cabanas Hotel at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Cabanas-Hotel-At-Sun-City-Resort.h9459.Hotel-Information) > > [Sanbona Wildlife Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barrydale-Hotels-Sanbona-Wildlife-Reserve.h1155735.Hotel-Information) > > [Garden Route Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albertinia-Hotels-Garden-Route-Game-Lodge.h2917158.Hotel-Information) > > [Rhino Ridge Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hlabisa-Hotels-Rhino-Ridge-Safari-Lodge.h9401037.Hotel-Information) > > [Kwa Maritane Self-Catering Chalets](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Kwa-Maritane-Self-Catering-Chalets.h22471915.Hotel-Information) > > [Inverdoorn Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Breede-River-Hotels-Inverdoorn-Private-Game-Reserve.h3131643.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oyster Box](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Umhlanga-Hotels-The-Oyster-Box.h2939964.Hotel-Information)
