Natasja was so welcoming when we arrived. She was happy to organise game drives and the boat safari for us and share her tips for the area and give us recommendations for nice restaurants. As two 30-year-old girls traveling together, we felt very safe at the lodge. When we mentioned something was broken in the room, it was fixed straight away. The rooms were perfectly cleaned every day while we were out exploring. The braai and outside kitchen was our favorite thing to come back to, to cook our dinner and relax with a glass of wine watching the sunset and scenery from our little patio. We will definitely recommend the lodge to friends and family and we hope to be back very soon! Thank you :)

At the beginning of our stay, there was a small misunderstanding, and we were given a house that wasn’t the one we had booked. However, once we clarified that, they tried to resolve it as quickly as possible, and they were extremely efficient, kind, and everything was handled very well. The house we stayed in was fantastic, and everything was great.

Stay at the lodge in the private Griejete Park Reserve at Mbizi Bush Lodge was truly remarkable. Breathtaking scenery, with an amazing pool and stunning views, the lodge provided the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable holiday. What truly set this experience apart was the expertise and hospitality of Bjorn and his family, who served as our hosts. As an experienced ranger with a deep knowledge of the local wildlife, Bjorn enriched our stay with insightful safaris and engaging conversations about animals. Bjorn's family contributed to the warm and welcoming atmosphere, making us feel like part of their own. Delicious meals, their genuine care for our comfort and enjoyment was evident throughout our stay.

Chacma is the perfect place from which to explore the big 5 and the broader SA safari experience. The setting is natural and beautiful with meals eaten outside to make the most of the waterhole and potential for wildlife spotting. Between safari rides comfortable rooms, shady spots across the camp and the pool provide the perfect setting for reading and relaxation. With just three rooms at Chacma, you’re guaranteed a much more intimate experience than staying at a bigger location. As a solo traveller the real highlight was the friendly and fun team behind Chacma: Matt, Josh and Charlie are fantastic, passionate guides who guaranteed that each trip out provided memorable, safe experiences while Karen, Lynx and the wider team at Chacma ensured a comfortable stay. You’ll learn so much from this team and they are only too happy to share their knowledge and experience with you. A special place I can’t wait to return to.

My husband and I spent 3 amazing days there. The place and our room were so quiet and peaceful, all the meals were perfect and also loved our routine there. Our game drive guide Nial was amazing, friendly and gave us full of information about the animals we found, gave us space to take as many photos as we wanted. We also loved Audrey, she was so kind and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable. The whole staff truly made a huge different in our stay at Muweti. Thank you all!

We had a great stay at Kingly Bush Villa! The peaceful setting and beautiful views made it the perfect spot to unwind. Being so close to the Kruger Park fence, we were lucky enough to see giraffes and hippos right from the garden, which was an incredible experience. At night, the clear sky was full of stars, which made for a really special atmosphere. The villa was good value for money, and our whole family enjoyed the stay. If you're after a quiet retreat with wildlife and great stargazing, this place is a solid choice!

Beautiful resort at very close distance from Kruger park. Rondawels were very clean and situated in such a way that they felt private, but at a close distance to the other rondawels where our kids were staying. Restaurant was very good and plenty of choices. We also booked a gamedrive via the reception before our arrival which was great and well organized. Staff took very good care of us, many thanks!

    The lodge is very nice and the rooms are far away enough that it is quiet, and you have your own privacy. The view is amazing as well.

    We had a lovely overnight stay. The lodges are clean and neat. We enjoyed the comfortable, king sized bed. Beautifull sun rises and sunsets in the bushveld. Natasha serves up a lovely wholesome breakfast. An all-round awesome base for those wanting to explore the Kruger. Thank you Natasha..

    I loved everything. The chalets are newly renovated, with new owners. The attention to details is impressive. The hospitality is out of this world and the owners go an extra mile for their guests. Would highly recommend and we will absolutely go again. One of the best self-catering lodges I've been to in a while.
