Beautiful views of the Crocodile river and convenient location to the Crocodile Bridge gate. Rooms are spacious and air-conditioned, beds very comfortable. Great swimming pool. Kitchen a little small and located out of air-conditioned area but manageable. Family owned and operated with great service. Highly recommended!

The location is great, right next to Kruger and we were lucky to have hippos cavorting in the river right opposite. The lighting in the rooms could be brighter and the shower temperature was difficult to control.

Great location, great staff and ownership. Unit 1 and 2 are nice, but need a little attention to raise them to the standard of the other rooms.

The property is ideally located at crocodile bridge gate and has amazing opportunities to photograph animals from your own patio. Units 1 & 2 are very nice, but could do with a coat of paint.

Loved our stay here. Our cabin "Ingulule" was spacious and being on stilts from our private deck we had an amazing view looking into Kruger National Park. We were fortunate to see a herd of elephants right across from our cabin the day we arrived. Loved the peace and quiet and good location. Would definitely stay here again.

6/10 Good

The lodge we had was a luxury one. The problem was it had another unit attached to it, on the first night it was not a problem but the next 2 nights a family had arrived and because it was on stilts and wooden you could hear every step they made and every door, cupboard shutting and every time the tap or shower was turned on. Very noisy. If you were a large group sharing maybe it would be ok, but definitely not for us

Great accommodation and fantastic location.
We were very happy. Accommodation was clean and spacious with great view overlooking the water. We were able to see animals from our cabin. Thew location was brilliant. There were long queues at the Crocodile Gate but since we were so close to the gate we got easy access to the front of the queue.
