Kapama River Lodges offer a range of air-conditioned suites all stylishly furnished and set against the backdrop of the Drakensberg Mountains. Each suite has a private bathroom fitted with a bath and shower and is complete with complimentary amenities as well as a minibar and coffee machine.

All meals were fantastic. and hospitality was amaizing! We stayed there for our honeymoon, and a wonderful gift was kindly prepared in our room. On the game drive, we were able to go deeper into the area than when we drove on our own, and were able to see valuable scenes of animals, such as lions eating their prey, from a distance of about 3 meters. We recommend staying at least 2 nights if possible. Thank you to Kapama for providing such a wonderful time.

Part of the Greater National Kruger Park, Kapama Karula is situated in the expansive Kapama Game Reserve. Kapama Karula arranges game drives in open safari vehicles, accompanied by experienced rangers. The luxurious suites offer views over the Klaserie River.

Kapama's modern lounge and bar offers an contemporary African feel. With prior arrangement, the lodge can set up a romantic dinner for two in the library.

Easily the best hotel stay I've had all my life. All you need to do is to breathe, walk from/to the safari vehicle, from/to your room and from/to the restaurant - everything else is taken care of: They've got it all organized! There's literally nothing I can criticize about Karula. I had high expectations stemming from the reviews I had read prior to my trip and Karula exceeded them. The game drive team John (from River Lodge) and Elvis did an outstandig job catering my photography needs, getting up-close and making sure I got the shot I wanted. On top of that we got to spot The Big 5 in just one day and everything else was just the icing on the cake (we encountered five wild dogs and watched them kill a duiker). The food was incredible, they feed you so well at Karula. From the hot water bottles provided for the morning drives to the sundowners during the evening drive - everything is done perfectly. I was so sad to leave I actually shed some tears. Even the ride back to the airport got me some more sightings of giraffes, hyenas and impalas.

Set 20 km from Drakensig Golf Club, Little Africa Safari Lodge offers an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and air-conditioned accommodation with a patio and free WiFi.

A buffet breakfast is available every morning at the lodge. At Little Africa Safari Lodge you will find a restaurant serving African and South African cuisine. Vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options can also be requested.

We stayed at the Little Africa Safari Lodge as part of a 10 day exploration of Kruger and the greater Kruger area. This place stood out in that being a boutique size meant that we received great service in a relaxed setting. We saw all of the top five and often at very close proximity. We also saw two bonus cheetahs. At night you could hear lions roaring near by during the full moon. The food was delicious and plentiful. The pool was refreshing on a hot day. The bed was very, very comfortable and the glamping tent has all that you need. Would stay again and recommend to others.

Situated on a small nature reserve near Hoedspruit, Bundox Safari Lodge is a stylish bush camp located within 50 km of the Kruger National Park. The lodge is surrounded by lush greenery and features a viewing deck and outdoor pool.

This is an absolutely amazing facility… secluded tents right next to Kruger National Park. The room and en-suite were gorgeous and the whole place was immaculate. The staff were incredibly hospitable and made everything perfect. We had a great couples massage that was even better due to the natural setting.

Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

    Everything about our stay here was exceptional and we were lucky to see the big 5 and stay in such a beautiful setting. We felt our safari drivers/guide Mary and Michael went above and beyond - they were both incredible at spotting animals and extremely knowledgeable. All the staff were kind and we can’t forget our waiter Gloria who greeted us with a big smile every meal time. Overall the very best holiday we could have asked for.

    Exceptional service in an exceptional location. once you’ve done a safari in a private reserve you will never look back, and this is the best lodge in the best reserve. Made to feel very special, all the staff knew our names from the moment we arrived. Game drives all stunning, good fabulous and nothing was too much trouble. already plotting our return, and this time we will bring friends and family to share it with. Justice and Elvis were the best of hosts on the game drives.

    Incredible service from the time we arrived until we had left. We were lucky enough to spot the big 5 in just two game drives and witnessed a lion hunt. The open safari experience was exhilarating in comparison to other 5 star lodges visited previously. The staff are so friendly and welcoming! The luxury tent was superb in every aspect, exactly as advertised. Food was delicious and my husband is vegetarian so his meals were also well catered for and divine. We also tried the River Lodge Spa, this was one of the finest spas I have been too.

    The Kapama Game Reserve is the best cost benefit Lodge in Hoespruit! Everything is well organized and carefully planned. They pick you up at the airport, give you all the support during the stay and prepare the schedule perfectly for you to enjoy a memorable Safari Game, swimming pool, gym and meals in there. I spent my honeymoon and I couldn't chose any other place. All the team are so friendly and kind that I am sure I will be there a second time.

    Its a fantastic private reserve, easily accessible from the Airport with well organised private transfers. You can enjoy a lodge experience here, as well as a boutique hotel feel if you prefer. A perfect balance - the rangers and trackers are excellent, we saw the Big 5, smaller animals and a wonderful array of birds - great safari experience.
