When we arrived, about a dozen elephant were wading across and hippo were wallowing. The rooms each have their own private terraces where fires are lit each night, and open up into a lovely common area where birds and the 3 incumbent nyala are encouraged. Meals are served on your terrace, ask if you want tea or coffee delivered with breakfast rather than make your own from the room tray. Rooms are comfortable, it's about 15min drive to Melelane gate. ##### Diane Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ian 3 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Kambuka River Lodge S.A We stayed at Kambuka 30th July for 3 Nights celebrating our 30 year anniversary and can honestly say this Lodge is worth every one of its 5 Stars - its Pure Luxury. The Location, service, food, staff, rooms and grounds are Truly Exceptional. The WOW factor you get as you enter the lodge is one that will remain with us for years to come, Likewise the room is probably the best room we have ever stayed in. We also went on a game drive in Kruger with Elvis 'The Driver' and again this exceeded all our expectations The elephants, crocodiles and Hippos were regular visitors to Kambuka Lodge - Literally came up to the lodges viewing platform and this is a sight to behold. That personal touch you receive from all staff is one that sets this lodge aside from others Honestly this lodge is wonderful and one we will absolutely be returning to. You have to see this Lodge to believe luxury of this quality exists Thank you so much Kambuka for a wonderful stay Ian and Katrina - UK ##### Ian Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Keith 6 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent facility with best in class service. ##### Keith Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Johan 1 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was Great!

We felt very welcome from the first minute. Breakfast and dinner are served on your own terrace. Everything tasted great. The fire in the fire bowl made the dinner very atmospheric. Unfortunately we didn't have time to go on a safari. We would love to come back. ##### Kurt Stayed 1 night in Mar 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 9 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Absolutely fantastic. A beautifully designed, maintained and serviced property on the banks of the Crocodile River, running along the southern boundary of the stunning Kruger National Park. Leanne and her delightful team provide a first class service, complete tranquility and privacy. Food served in your private residence is delicious and plentiful, rooms and grounds are immaculate. We spent 2 nights here and one day lounging in our private pool, watching buffalo, hippo, deer and unidentified animals drinking and playing in the river all day. A truly fantastic place that I recommend without hesitation. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 2 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was a treat to stay at Kambaku River Lodge. The ritual for breakfast and dinner is very special, with food arriving to the beat of a drum, a fire pit blazing and a lantern lit table, on your patio. The food was excellent and the fillet steak to die for...melt in your mouth. We were lucky to see hippos in the river and another day a herd of elephants. We also spotted a buffalo, kudu and a family of warthogs as well as the usual herd of impalas that graze each day. The viewing platforms are terrific, with comfortable camp chairs and umbrella. Safaris into Kruger National Park are available if you wish to venture further than this piece of paradise. Bird feeders on the lawn attract all sorts of colourful birds with characteristics to amaze. We had the honeymoon suite with its private dipping pool. The kitchen is well equipped. Beds very comfortable and luxurious. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 6 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The view was stunning.

A place you will always want to go back to. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Giovanna 15 Jul 2019 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Show de Horror! Nunca passei tanto nervoso! Parecia filme de terror! Reservei esse hotel para passar minha lua de mel e foi um show de horror! Vou descrever algumas coisas pelas quais passei. 1)Longe de tudo: o hotel fica há proximadamente 40 minutos do aeroporto internacional do Kruger. Você precisa pegar uma estrada de terra, passar por umas fazendas para chegar no hotel. Super afastado de tudo! Por ser uma cidade pequena não há taxis e nem uber, somente transfers que custam caríssimo! SE VOCÊS NÃO FOREM ALUGAR CARRO, NEM VENHAM! 2) ME COBRARAM POR UM SAFARI QUE NÃO FIZ! Teve um dia que nós queríamos marcar um safari e pedimos para a dona do hotel agendar. A resposta dela foi que ela já tinha agendado. Como que ela agenda antes de nós pedirmos? Super estranho! Depois desta resposta dela, perguntei se aceitavam o cartão American Express e ela disse que não. Diante dessa resposta eu falei pra ela que então precisava cancelar o safari pois eu não tinha outro cartão, nem uma quantidade grande de dinheiro vivo para pagar safari + hotel. A resposta dela foi: Infelizmente eu já reservei e agora vocês vão ter que pagar! E ainda me disse que se eu quisesse ela me levava no banco pra sacar dinheiro! Como assim??? Eu cancelei com umas 10 horas de antecedência! ! E como que ela me marca um safari antes mesmo de eu pedir? 3) No hotel não servem almoço! Passei fome! Funcionários mal educados! Lugar longe de tudo! Não tem taxi nem uber na cidade!
