Sabie River Bush Lodge

We loved our stay, but getting there was a bit of a nightmare, as we did not know we have to book a day permit to drive through the Kruger Park. We also did not know that they limit day visitors, so we could not drive through the Park. We recommend that visitors to this Lodge must be notified beforehand, as the other road is slow and with many speed bumps. and bad roads and township-driving. The lodge itself was perfect with lovely views from the pool decks and also the restaurant. The food was great, and room was nice.

This is a five star place with some caveats. The location and service are wonderful. These are "tents" with individual bathrooms in one little hut and an individual kitchen in another little hut accessed outside your tent. There are lounge chairs facing the river and on the other side is the park, meaning you can recline with a bottle of wine and see the glory of Kruger before you. (Maybe I was lucky).

Absolutely fantastic place, rooms are clean and spacious. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Great to have a view over the river with hippos (and accidentally elephants passing by). Very close to Kruger gate. Recommend this place.

The rooms were immaculate, the staff was friendly and their service was commendable and highly professional. The lodge prides itself in quality hospitality. I give you guys 5 stars. I enjoyed my stay at the lodge. The location of the lodge is simply perfect, you get to see some of Africa's majestic animals a stone throw away. We got the opportunity to see some hippos and elephants from the comfort of the lodge - simply magnificent.

Great service here and staff is always willing to help. The room didn't have windows but just a bit patio door. Works just as well if you aren't picky. The room has a mosquito net over the bed because these rooms typically isn't made tight and little insects and mosquito will get in. The dinner and breakfast was included and very good. We enjoyed it very much. Great location to Kruger gate.

We had the ABSOLUTE BEST time at Sabie River Bush Lodge. All of the staff was incredible, especially France, who was our transport to and from the airport, and our safari guide for 2 of our safaris! He was extremely knowledgeable, and made sure we saw the big 5 both of the times we went on safari with him! The food was delicious (we especially enjoyed the soups!) and you can't beat the view. We were there for our honeymoon, and couldn't have imagined a better trip. We can't wait to come back!!! THANK YOU!

Great accommodation right next to the Sabie River and on the edge of the Kruger National Park. The river contains a pod of Hippos that live there that can be seen from the swimming pool deck and restaurant. The luxury self-catering tents are also great and include a separate fully kitted kitchen and also comes with a separate big bathroom with a walk-in shower and toilet. The tents also include air conditioning and a mosquito net for comfortable living. The staff were very friendly and nice and accommodating

An excellent stop over to Kruger Park. On the edge of the Sabie River, a pod of hippo amuse you while enjoying a drink in the pool or on the deck over looking the river. Ellies frequently visit this part of the Kruger Sabie River. The rooms are clean and modern and the restaurant excellent with good food and service.
