Good dinners and good location to Kruger and a local small town. The pool is smaller than pictures show but still nice to lounge in the shade near the pool. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 15 Sept 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Lodge immerso nel bush africano in un paesino dove non c'è nulla. Camera spaziosa. Le cose comprese inesistenti: set di cortesia mancante, non è stato messo neanche il secondo giorno, la pulizia della camera non è stata fatta (solo il letto) , non hanno sostituito gli asciugamani sporchi, la cosa assurda è che avevo mnesso un asciugamano per terra perchè sporco, mi è stato rimesso steso in doccia. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 9 Jul 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 5 Jul 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Not so great I found that many of the amenities listed as onsite were not present, they we're actually part of other lodges in the area, but not onsite where we were staying. There also seemed to be some sort of sewerage problem while we were there as our rooms and outside of our house smelled quite foul. The beds were spacious, but extremely uncomfortable. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jan 20 Sept 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Jan Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Loes, Nederland 4 Jul 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Prima, zeer leuk restaurant Prima accomodatie voor 1 nacht, redelijk dicht bij ingang Kruger. Kamer was niet groot en erg basic, maar meer heb je ook niet nodig. Restaurant was op een wat hoger gedeelte met een zeer groot en sfeervol terras. Erg goed gegeten. ##### Loes Stayed 1 night in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara 6 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Phumula krüger lodge ist im Park vor dem krüger National Park.

Semplice ma molto caratteristico sia per la struttura che per l'ambiente in cui si trova (dentro una riserva naturale). Consigliato per famiglie con bambini e a chi piace fare da se (si hanno a disposizione la cucina e il barbecue esterno). ##### Lorenzo ### 6/10 Okay #### Andre, Johannesburg 30 Sept 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Great Location Our stay was very pleasant.

The accommodation was comfortable, clean and neat. ##### Andre ### 6/10 Okay #### V 8 Aug 2014 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good location... But that s all Don t expect anything but a pratical 3 bedrooms accomodation, bring groceries to complement missing ones, escape from the house to admire the beauty of marloth and kruger... ##### V ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christina, Southern California 25 Feb 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent The location of the lodge was wonderful. It is in Marloth Park - right next to Kruger and wild animals walked around the property. There were zebras, wharthogs, monkeys just to name a few. The Chalet we stayed it had three bedrooms and a kitchen and living room space. Very nice people on property and would totally recommend. Go into Kruger through the Crocodile Bridge gate - we say so many animals and even three cheetahs! Excellent all the way around!!!! ##### Christina ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Spain](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Spain.d166.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Only YOU Hotel Malaga](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malaga-Hotels-Only-YOU-Hotel-Malaga.h64114134.Hotel-Information) > > [Parklands Hotel & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Parklands-Hotel-Country-Club.h14766742.Hotel-Information) > > [Wedding Hotels in Benidorm](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Benidorm-Hotels-Wedding-Hotel.0-0-d181363-tWeddingHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Family-Friendly Hotels in Blackpool](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d619-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Dome Notting Hill](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Dome-Notting-Hill.h31735761.Hotel-Information) > > [The Spyglass and Kettle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bournemouth-Hotels-The-Spyglass-And-Kettle.h9491930.Hotel-Information) > > [Ben Wyvis Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Strathpeffer-Hotels-Ben-Wyvis-Hotel.h1381828.Hotel-Information) > > [Spa Hotels in Haworth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Haworth-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d6084726-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Mold](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mold-Hotels.d182872.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Seven Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Southend-On-Sea-Hotels-Seven-Hotel.h19282555.Hotel-Information) > > [Hippo Hollow Country Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hazyview-Hotels-Hippo-Hollow-Country-Estate.h2417701.Hotel-Information) > > [The Beath Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cowdenbeath-Hotels-The-Beath-Inn.h36195648.Hotel-Information) > > [Grafton Manor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bromsgrove-Hotels-Grafton-Manor.h6973.Hotel-Information) > > [Dog & Crook Braishfield](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Romsey-Hotels-Dog-Crook-Braishfield.h34297569.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Princes Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Princes-Street-Hotels.0-l6129679-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Caesar Prague](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prague-Hotels-Hotel-Caesar-Prague.h1236320.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Soho Boutique Granada](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Granada-Hotels-Marquis-Hotels-Issabels.h17065433.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Dalgety Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dalgety-Bay-Hotels.d3000456691.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Mumbai](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mumbai-Hotels.d6050062.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Astral Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hastings-Hotels-Astral-Lodge.h23324214.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Christchurch (BOH) to Gibraltar (GIB)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/boh/gib/bournemouth-to-gibraltar) > > [Air India London (LHR) to Chennai (MAA) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/air-india-from-heathrow-to-chennai-intl/ai/lhr/maa) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Madrid (MAD)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/mad/london-to-madrid) ### Cars > [Car hire in Tilbury](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Tilbury.d6194585.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Packages > [Graves Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Graves-Park-Sheffield.d553248621532492814.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Clwyd](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clwyd.dx6253884) > > [Visit La Castellane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marseille-La-Castellane.dx6160222)
