We were blown away by Royal Kruger lodge, This place is just sensational. Our Hosts Gavin and Julia were simply the best. We didn't want to leave. Gavin, any chance of a job at your beautiful retreat? And, what about Julia's magnificent cooking!! This is a home away from home. Marloth Park and surrounds is wonderful and the two days... More

My husband and I had a fantastic stay at the lodge. The rooms were clean and very comfortable and the bathroom was huge! The large bathtub was a nice touch. The food was absolutely amazing - Julia was the best cook! The owner was beyond hospitable and the manager, Gavin, was knowledgeable and funny. We saw an amazing array of... More

What a truly magical experience. I'm not surprised that EVERYONE's reviews are positive and let me tell you I believe they're all genuine! The Royal Kruger Lodge and all the people (and animals) that come with it made our stay there the most comfortable, welcoming, unforgettable experience ever. I would go back at the drop of a hat, and I... More

Stayed here in March 2012 as a couple, and had a really great time. The boma dinners in the evening were amazing, eating a delicious 4 course dinner under the stars. We were even held captive by a kudu in the boma the one night. It is located close in a private game reserve close to Kruger Park, less than... More

"From the moment we arrived at Royal Kruger Lodge when we were handed a cool flannel to freshen up with and fresh juice right up with until the moment we left with a week full of incredible memories, we were treated exceptionally by all the staff and made to feel right at home.

We did a 3 night stay at the Royal Kruger Lodge in Jan 2012 and had an amazing time there. The general manager of the lodge is very hospitable and knowledgeable about the various animals and birds that roam the area. The boma dinners were 4 course meals and wow the chef prepares a succulent lamb shank. One of the... More

A direct thanks to Gavin who made our stay so memorable and forever lasting. We absolutely love Royal Kruger - from the comfortable accommodations, the delicious food to the amazing animal encounters. We were told that if we were lucky that we would get to see some animals up close but never imagined that they would actually walk up to... More

This was a truly superb experience. It was a special weekend away and Gavin could not have been more accommodating along with the rest of the lodge staff. It is so seldom that you get treated like royalty in this world and this was the one time when honestly NOTHING was too much trouble from the early morning wake up... More
