Hotels near Paul Kruger National Park, Skukuza

Absolutely impressed with everything here. The room was so big, everything new, we would wake up and see impalas in the garden. Food was absolutely delicious. Like wow, so many options, for vegetarians as well. Would wait everyday for that dinner. Kind staff, we had some great game drives with them. So many options to chill, play boardgames, a gym that would compete with an actual commercial gym, so well equipped. Terrace and pool wow, we spotted so many animals just from there. Massage absolutely incredible, the view from the room was great as well. Probably one of the best hotel we stayed. And it’s so close to the park.

We certainly werent the easiest customers, but the staff was very hospitable and helped us out a lot. Overall great experience.

The tented accommodation was SO comfortable private and atmospheric. Wonderful facilities, shower etc and just a short walk to the dining/ bar. Also 2 swimming pools both lovely. The package we took included a safari daily, accom and meals. The food was excellent, the chef went to endless trouble to offer delicious and interesting meals every day. Transfers were excellent, on time and efficient. We also took the Panorama Tour which gave us a look at the fabulous scenery and geographic marvels of the area.

Clean, tidy, comfortable. Great organisation of game drives. Particular gratitude to Tyrone, the safari guide - so attentive, knowledgeable, happy to share wealth of insights and make the game drives memorable, enjoyable and fun.

Everything. Exceptional service

We had an amazing three-night stay at Umkumbe bush Lodge. The staff were so friendly, welcoming and helpful. As there are only a few tents, they get to know your name and preferences and it feels like a home away from home. The accommodation is super clean, comfortable and exactly what you need for your visit. The common area had a wonderful pool and bar, where you can watch the wildlife pass by as you relax and unwind. The game drives start early in the morning, and it can be cold, but you are provided with warm fleece blankets as well as ponchos for when it rains. Both our guides (Pieter and Capps ) are very knowledgeable and good fun - they really look after us and engaged in conversation while on drives sharing their passion for the area. The coffee and drink stops were a highlight as well. We cannot rate this place highly enough and hope to return sometime in the future, l Thank you to everyone at Umkumbe for making this such a memorable experience and making us feel like more than just guests. Your personal touches did not go unnoticed
