Highly recommend this place. We stayed in the self catering unit, which offers lots of space. I loved everything in here, from the thatched roof to the tastefully decorated bathroom. The garden is beautiful and I loved sitting outside at night, listening to the sounds. Phil and Margi are very nice hosts who also helped us find the best route... More

Everything that has already been said is absolutely true. It was a wonderful experience and in a perfect location to all the attractions. Phil and Margi are fantastic hosts. I would stay here any chance I got. More

The Blue Jay Lodge far exceeded our expectations and we truly think the online photos do not do this property justice. The gardens were immaculate and beautifully designed. The room was spacious, clean, well decorated and elegantly furnished. We stayed here for one night to visit nearby Blythe Canyon, God's WIndow etc and left wishing we had stayed longer. The... More

I can't really add anything to any of the other reviews, except to say that they're all true! Great hosts - friendly and helpful, giving good advice on where to go, what to do, where to eat - and the accommodation is fabulous - comfortable, spacious, relaxing and wonderfully cool in the heat. The breakfasts shouldn't be missed, with a... More

Whilst the accommodation provided matched exactly as it appeared in brochure (believe me when I say that ads are glossier than reality) - game lodge style, awesome decor, tranquil, exceptionally clean and comfortable with a turndown service, what touched me most during my stay at Bluejay was the hospitality that we received from Phil and Margi. It was like we... More

Phil & Margi were the perfect hosts; the room was large, beautifully designed, scrupulously clean, well-equipped and extremely comfortable. The location - just minutes from the Kruger National Park and a short drive from the Blyde River Canyon - was perfect for our needs. Would highly recommend to anyone wishing to combine wildlife watching in the Kruger Park and Sabi... More

We started our 3 week long trip in South Africa with 3 nights at Blue Jay Lodge. We were greeted by Phil and Margi when we arrived and offered drinks and great advice on our itinerary in the Hazyview area. I didn't realize how important this was until we arrived at other guest lodges in South Africa and were not... More

I stayed here two nights and my stay was too short. Phil and Margi are great hosts, welcoming us with drinks on their patio. They have plenty of stories to share, and also provide great tips on things to do in the area. Their home and rooms are amazing - beautifully built and incredibly comfortable. More

We stayed here for two nights before going on to Kruger park and loved it - the lodge is in a beautiful leafy setting which feels hidden away. The owners couldn't have been friendlier, sitting with us for welcome drinks on their deck and giving us lots of recommendations and useful tips for the rest of our trip. We had... More
