Braai Safaris Lodge

We couldn't have found a better place for our safari experience in the Kruger area! We spent a couple of nights at Villa Marula, where Marta and Wiann pampered us, made us feel at home (including delicious home-cooked dinners) and introduced us to the local area, before then heading into the Kruger for 3 nights accompanied by Wiann. It's hard to describe the extent of Wiann's knowledge, competence and enthusiasm as a safari guide! He taught us a lot and gave us a fully tailored and immersive experience, where every little detail was taken care of. I just can't recommend this place enough, Marta and Wiann are simply two fantastic people who gave us one of the best experiences of our life!

the property is beautiful, very clean, safe and peaceful, we received a warm welcome from Marta, who was always helpful and available, our stay at Marula Village was incredible, the Kruguer safari was excellent and we had a super helpful guide, we will definitely return .

I just wanted to thank Wiann and Marta for their exceptional experience they provided. Their accommodation exceeded our expectations and beyond! It was so cosy and beautiful decorated with everything we needed for our stay. We wanted to extend our stay it was that awesome! They live up to the name "Braai Safaris" as the night we stayed in the Kruger with Wiann he was on the Braai and cooked us one of our best meals we've had on our trip in South Africa. The love this company has for people, the wild and personalized experiences will have us coming back for sure! Don't hestitate, they are for sure the best experience you will get! Thanks Wiann and Marta

Everything was perfect, Marta was incredible. Staying here is like a 5 star hotel at a 3 star price. Also, the game drive given by her husband is the best. If you are going to Kruger book with Braii Safari. His knowledge of all things animals is unsurpased.

My family stayed in the Braai Safaris Lodge last week while visiting me in Hoedspruit. It absolutely exceeded all our expectations. The lodge is located in the perfect position - within a wildlife estate with loads of game and lovely walking/cycling trails, and close enough to be able to walk to the shops in Hoedspruit. The lodge is immaculate - clean, comfortable, and feels like a home away from home! There is a pool, and a large braai area to sit and enjoy the sounds of nature. The kitchen has everything you need, and the outdoor shower off the downstairs bedroom is lovely. Marta and Wiann are the perfect hosts, friendly, welcoming, professional, knowledgeable, and they go out of their way to ensure guests have a lovely stay. I highly, highly recommend this lodge, and will be booking it for any of my family or friends who come to visit Hoedspruit in the future. Thanks Wiann and Marta for such a special place for my family to stay while visiting me!

The lodge is a real paradise on earth; situated in the middle of the nature really close to Kruger NP it's a peaceful place, furnished in a typical african style, clean, equipped with all you can need, the swimming pool is also very nice, the house has a beautiful garden where you can relax, read, practice yoga, having a barbecue or listen to the nature sounds ; braai safaris also organize amazing safaris ; Marta is a special host, caring and kind lady and Wiann is one of the most skilled ranger I've ever met in my 25 yrs of African trips ; both professional and respectful people. They also organize funny, unique and safe bike tours in the area. Don't miss the chance to go there...the experience, the house and the owners worth a visit and it is really good value for money

Amazing and one of a kind experience those days there! The house was purely beautiful and clean, makes you want to stay there for weeks. The safari rides were like going to a university of wildlife, you learn a lot of things while capturing moments you would never forget. The guides, personally, are the ones with the most knowledge in the park. And what makes it perfect is the kind-heart they have for wildlife.

We have done a Safari with Braai safari and it was very very good experience. This house its very near the Kruger and its very clean and very comfortable. It has a little swimming pool, a double room, two singles beds and a equipped kitchen. The wifi its working so good and the people who work on braai safari are so lovely. I recommend it 100%!!!
