Elephants and impalas walking around and getting back from evening safari we met hyena close to the lodge. It made our staying with positive emotions that we stayed in wild area

Our stay at Muweti Bush Lodge was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. Hardus, one of the staff members, was incredible—so kind and thoughtful throughout our stay. He even made us the most amazing ostrich stir fry, which ended up being one of our favorite meals of our entire South Africa trip!
The lodge itself is even more beautiful than the photos online. They honestly don’t do it justice. Everything was spotless, and the tented rooms were super secure and well-insulated, making us feel safe and comfortable while still feeling close to nature.
The game drives were beyond anything we expected. We saw so much incredible wildlife up close, and every drive felt like a new adventure. Our most memorable moment was watching a pride of lions try to hunt a baby elephant!
If you're looking for a perfect mix of comfort, adventure, and genuine hospitality, Muweti Bush Lodge is the place to be. We can’t wait to come back!

It was pure understated elegance and a wonderful experience. The food and the staff were amazing. Every day was different: outdoor braai, elegant dinner, casual lunch .. etc. We tried Kudu and Ostrich and local dishes like Bobooti. It was lovely. Pool is lovely and overlooking a waterhole where elephants would always gather. Safari drives weee excellent. We saw hippo and buffalo and lions and elephants and giraffes and water hog and rhino and zebra and kudu and impala and baboon and crocodile … only thing we didn’t spot was the leopard. Will definitely come again. Staff were incredible too.

Exceeded all expectations. The staff were incredibly warm, generous and on top of everything. They made us feel extra special and we enjoyed their company. Oupa as our guide delivered every single drive. We saw the Big 5 and then some! The meals from Chef Dudu and Chef Sam were spectacular and Marice and Lillian were the best hosts. Room was spacious and beautiful and the beds very comfortable. Every need was met and I just wish we could have stayed longer!

This place clicked boxes I didn't even know existed. The accommodations were over the top. All riverfront. We only spent 3 nights, but there was animal activity every night. Elephants and hippos in and along the river, monkeys on our deck - between the game drives and the accommodations it was a very immersive experience. The food was elegant and plentiful. The staff was eager to make sure every need was met. They even picked up medicine in town when my wife developed some stomach issues. The location is perfect, and they have finding animals on game drives down to a science. The guides were capable, professional, and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay. Front office staff were genuinely amazing.

Surrounded by nature and wildlife, Greenfire Game Lodge is located inside the Balule Game Reserve. It offers a viewing deck, dining room and outdoor pool.
Ideal for nature lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and have kitchen facilities. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than vacation homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
Dinner and breakfast were excellent. For dinner we tasted ostrich that was cooked in the best manner

Our stay at Lions Place Lodge was fantastic. The lodge is beautiful and well-maintained, with lovely rooms and views of the bush. The friendly staff gave us a warm welcome and were always ready to ensure we had the best time.
We enjoyed a delicious breakfast in the mornings and dinner in the evenings. The location is perfect for safari enthusiasts, offering easy access to stunning bush walks and game drives.
Overall, Lions Place Lodge exceeded all our expectations. We highly recommend this lodge and look forward to returning!
My partner and I stayed for 2 nights as a birthday gift. It was amazing. Guide, Millie was fantastic and we were able to see an abundance of game throughout our 4 game drives. On arriving back to the lodge after our morning or evening drive, Hardus and the other staff had breakfast/dinner ready to go and it was delicious.
During the day, we sat by the pool and watched the elephants stroll by!
We would 10/10 recommend.
The staff were excellent. On the safari's we saw heaps of animals. Our guides went out of their way to find any animal we hadn't yet seen. Seeing all the hippos coming out of the river was the highlight of our trip!!
We had such a lovely time at Muweti. It is a small and intimate lodge with great staff. We really enjoyed the food and the personal touches. We loved to see the elephants from the watering hole and the guides taught us many interesting things about the bush and the wildlife.
A real safari experience. We also enjoyed interacting with other guests.
Thank you to the Muweti team!
The lodge is in a beautiful private game reserve in Greater Kruger. The wild animals are right next to the vence. The rooms were clean, cosy, spacious and just what you need after a safari day. Xander is extremely hospitable and Helen cooks the best breakfast, lunch and diner for you (Italian style). We recommend doing the activities with Xander in Grietjie instead of doing it yourself in Kruger, as he knows everything about the nature and the animals.
We loved every second :)
This Lodge is really living up to the great reviews it already got.
We felt so welcomed into this lovely family.
We especially liked that we got an honest and realistic perspective on safari and living in the nature reserves.
The owners take a lot of responsibility and put a lot of work into creating an environment were tourists and the animals can enjoy themselves and be safe.
I couldn't recommend it enough :)
We liked everything. The road to the lodge is long and a little bumpy, but we enjoyed this as an extra safari. We always saw animals. The hotel is amazing and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.
Our 3 day stay at lions place exceeded all of our expectations! The service, room and safari drives have all been amazing and if you are lucky many different animals come drink at the lodge. JP is a great host and really goes the extra mile to make your stay and game drives extra special. One of our most memorable stays ever!
