Everything was exceptional! The room was beautiful and clean, every single staff member was so friendly and helpful! The facilities were great, the food was delicious and the safari was just amazing!

Beautiful hotel with stunning rooms and real sense of luxury. The pool and grounds are so tranquil and calm and everything is immaculate The staff are attentive and professional and the setting is beautiful with giraffe and zebra roaming around - so lovely. The restaurant is gorgeous. The only tiny bit of feedback is that the restaurant staff got things a bit confused for us and forgot some of the food and got the courses mixed up so the children got their main courses while the adults were...

Wow, what can you say about this place - it's just amazing. We were expecting quite a lot from our safari, but this exceeded it, by a mile... As you only go on safari to actually go deep in the bush, we can certainly say that this achieved our goal and more - the Ranger and Tracker working here, Peter and Sandy, are very, very, very good at what they do. We got the see all big 5 in our first 2 safaris, and went on to see them again and again... They made it a point that we get to see each one up...

Lovely rooms, nice communal areas, helpful staff and a delicious breakfast by the pool. Great for a stop over or longer. They recommended a driver called Peter who took us on to our main destination in Sabi Sands. He was excellent and really good company for the drive.

We spent a really nice evening staying at the Lodge. The property is in excellent condition and really well kepy. Staff were extremely helpful and the food and service were great.

We spent one night at Mohlabetsi two years ago on a 7 day trip round South Africa. My family didn't want to leave but we always had in our minds to return to this very special place. This time we booked for 3 nights and it was absolutely wonderful. The people, the safari, the animals, the food, the lodges are just perfect. Mohlabetsi will always hold a very special place in all my family's hearts and will definitely go back again one day. I recommend this lodge to anyone!

I booked this for my daughter & her boyfriend as a break whilst they were volunteering in South Africa. They absolutely loved it. The hotel / food were really good and the game drives superb - seeing a wide variety of animals at close quarters. The knowledgeable rangers join the guests at dinner which adds to the experience. They loved it so much they decided to stay for a 2nd night!

My wife and I had a fabulous time spent at Nyati. Arranged collection from Hoedspruit airport and on arrival at the lodge a lovely welcome and drink then shown to our luxury tent. A stunning view from the balcony of our tent overlooking the river and able to see hippos and crocodile. Game drives were excellent and rangers all very friendly and knowledgeable. The food is amazing and thoroughly enjoyed breakfast , lunch and dinner and the wines served were also very good with the evening meal....

WOW! What a fantastic experience. This is a small slice of Paradise in the African bush near Kruger National Park. The setting is absolutely perfect and there are only 4 chalets so it is exceptionally exclusive and very special. Mette & Michael were fantastic hosts, always available if you needed, always happy to take you out on a Game drive (we saw a huge amount of wild life VERY up close and personal - there was an elephant drinking from the swimming pool one day!! - and one evening we were...

Beautiful accommodation. Lovely plunge pool. Excellent location for Kruger and other sights

Only stayed one night coming back from our stay in Kruger but as soon as we got there we realised we should have booked for two. There are loads of things to do in the area that we were interested in and on site there were walks we could have taken surrounded by nature. The location is beautiful and even just outside the bedroom you see deer and a warthog or two. Marlon was a great host and very knowledgeable and the room was luxurious as was the bathroom that also had a choice of inside and...

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Oase. Accommodation was immaculate, the food was delicious and the service faultless. A perfect getaway if you're wanting an authentic experience in the bush. A special thanks to Ernest for looking after us. Would highly recommend.

Matthew And Freddy= legends! Great food! Maybe some live music at the bomo dinners would be a nice touch in future:)

Absolutely amazing stay - a beautiful setting, amazing staff than go above and beyond, fantastic rooms, and unbelievable safari drives with knowledge and super friendly guides. 10/10 experience, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone!

Simply wonderful! Game drives were excellent and well worth the early start, although if visiting in winter be sure to bring your cold weather gear. Accommodation excellent. Food great too (could be a bit warmer, though). Friendly staff and a very welcoming vibe.
