Par contre il faut réserver à l’avance pour avoir un repas, mais le tout n’est pas mentionné. Alors nous sommes arrivés à 18:00 et nous ne pouvions pas manger au restaurant. De plus, nous ne pouvons pas se fier aux informations données par rapport à l’hôtel ; il est mentionné que le service au chambre est jusqu’à 22h, mais à 21h il n’y avait plus personne, air climatisé sans manette pour la partir et plus personne ne pouvait nous aider. L’emplacement de l’hôtel est magnifique et le personnel est très gentil. La nourriture est excellente, mais aucun endroit pour manger à l’abris des moustiques. Il manque 2-3 éléments importants pour que cet hôtel soit un 5 étoiles. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Feb 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Almudena 1 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### An amazing experience I can’t say anything bad about this awesome accommodation. With an impressive deck view over Kruger Park, a 5 mins car ride to Cocodrile Bridge and 14 mins to Komatipoort. The staff is incredibly friendly and the breakfast is delicious. I recommend to hire the Game drive service with Chasing Africa, it was one of the best experiences in my life. I will come back for sure :) ##### Almudena Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 22 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is an amazing property! There is an enormous deck that faces the river where you can watch wildlife. The staff are so friendly and had very helpful suggestions about Kruger. We swam in the pool under the stars and could hear hippos grunting in the river. There are BBQ’s available and our room had everything we needed to cook. Bedding was excellent. Communication was quick and efficient. Overall would highly recommend ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathleen 1 May 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Peaceful and relaxing!

Apartments very clean and overlooks a fabulous view of the Crocodile River in the south end of Kruger park. Elephants have been known to cross the river and eat right at the hotel. Cleaners were very thorough, dusting underneath tables and chairs even. All staff greet you with a smile and appear to enjoy working there. A wonderful stay, where nothing is too much trouble. A real African feel in a beautiful tranquil setting. ##### Jane Stayed 1 night in Apr 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### martin 22 Mar 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Welcome to paradise Wow!!! Such a beautiful place, very kind host and super breakfast. Saw some elephants and water buffalos in the morning from the deck. The backyard is the Kruger park and few minutes away from the park's gate. Perfect place if you want to go in and out the park. Everything was perfect except the fact we only stayed one night. Clean, comfortable and relaxing this was better than expected ##### martin ### 10/10 Excellent #### JG, Oregon 15 Oct 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to see rhinoceros as you eat breakfast Right on river at edge of Kruger you can sit on verandah in front of room and see wildlife. We saw giraffes, buffalo, and rhinos as they came to the river. Staff very friendly, suggesting where in town to get vegetarian food = Stoep Cafe, and setting up a safari drive for us. No WiFi, but nice selection of cable TV channels for those who don't plan to get up for 5 am game drive. Nice breakfast from 7:45 and if you are lucky, wildlife will be at river at same time. Short drive to gate if you choose to self drive. Great base for enjoying Kruger. Good value for money. ##### JG Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wolfgang, Heidelberg, Germany 21 Aug 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great Lodge at the river The location of the hotel was perfect for a visit of the Kruger NP. It took about 10 minutes to reach the nearest gate of the park. The place of the lodge is also very nice, directly on the Crocodile River where we were able to spot some elephants and rhinos in the morning. Our room was well equipped with a kitchen and we also could use a barbeque. Great stay!!! ##### Wolfgang ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 3 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda, Cleveland, Ohio 25 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Kruger is your backyard! Such a comfortable and friendly hotel. Wildlife is right out your back door. The owners arranged an excellent safari for us. The safari guide picked us up right at Buckler's and took us for an awesome trip through Kruge. Bucker's is highly recommended and we so wish that we could have stayed longer. ##### Linda ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 3 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### toll eingerichtete Lodge mit interessanter Lage wir waren nur eine Nacht, konnten den Pool nicht nutzen, sahen dafür Elefanten am Abend, schöne Anlage, freundliche Vermieter ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen , Australia 4 Oct 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Back to nature with comfort Absolutely beautiful.
