Grand Kruger Lodge and Spa

It’s our honeymoon, and we’re glad we chose South Africa as our honeymoon destination! Spent 4 nights at Grand Kruger Lodge and booked 2 game drives, a sunrise bush walk and sunset drive via the lodge. The lodge staff were good representatives of South African hospitality; we were well taken care of since day 1 - from decorating our room to welcome us for our honeymoon, the delicious and homely dinner spread (we looked forward to checking out the handwritten menu on the blackboard daily!), the friendly chats to find out if we enjoyed our Kruger National Park experience, leaving us chocolates on our bed after dinner etc. Returning to the lodge after our day felt like returning home to meet close friends whom we knew by name. Special shoutout to Innocent (yes that’s a staff’s name) who even gave us a ride back to the lodge when he saw us walking on the dirt path back after visiting Marloth viewpoint! The game drives were conducted by the lodge safari guides, while the bush walk and sunset drive were conducted by SAN Parks rangers. We got Tamba as our game drive guide and learnt loads from him! From learning how to identify male/female animals via their distinctive features, to looking out for telltale signs such as animal poop and footprints to determine if the animals were nearby, the drives were like a live Nat Geo experience! Definitely miss this place and everyone we met at Kruger/Marloth. Thank you for the lovely memories 😊

Best Lodge to stay if visiting Kruger national Park. My family of four stayed in a single Bush Camp chalet with five beds, wonderful amenities, turn down service and the food at the main hotel is exceptional, including outdoor barbecue nights with freely roaming, bush buck, warthogs and even baboons. They served delicious breakfast and dinner and provide trips into Kruger as needed. Overall, the best place to stay when visiting Park.

Everyone was very friendly and the place was beautiful

This place was super cute. I was the only guest during my one night stay so they upgraded me to amazing room with huge balcony. The staff were so great and made me feel so welcome. I would definitely recommend this place for singles or couples. Quite romantic

Great Hotel Great place especially at the pool where you can see the animals in Kruger Park. Gate is around the corner.

Fab place with fab staff My sister and I had a girls trip and chose the Perfect place to stay. I love the small and more intimate places and this was not too busy. Absolutely fantastic staff who were so happy to see you and nothing was too much trouble for us.
