Kapama Southern Camp is located in the greater Kruger Park area within the Kapama Private Game Reserve.

All the facilities, the staff, the surrounding nature, the food, and the drinks. I honestly loved every single piece of our experience. I've never been treated so well in my life. Our guide and driver Busani, the waitress Beatrice, and the tracker Opa were true friends to us during our stay. We know it's the crew's job to treat us well, but the way they do that with joy and affection made everything more special. Two nights at the Kapama were enough to impact our lives forever.

Part of the Greater National Kruger Park, Kapama Karula is located in the expansive Kapama Game Reserve. Kapama Karula arranges game drives in open-safari vehicles, accompanied by experienced rangers....

This property is incredible! The rooms were stunning and so large. I had no idea how amazing the safari rides would be- Justice and Elvis did such an amazing job at making us feel safe and finding/getting up close to the big 5. The service is impeccable- Tinyiko our server was so kind and we felt so cared for. I wasn’t expecting much for the food- due to it being all inclusive- but it was absolutely amazing quality, ingredients and preparation.

Located 12 miles from Drakensig Golf Club, Little Africa Safari Lodge offers an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and air-conditioned accommodations with a patio and free WiFi.

This resort is absolutely fantastic, it was way beyond what I expected and we loved it. Leandra and her team met all our expectations. Our meals were delicious and very South African - which we loved. It's amazing to eat traditional meals from the country. Our tents were perfect, clean, and beautiful. Game Drives were unbelievable.

Phelwana Game Lodge is located in the Hoedspruit area and 29 mi away from Kruger Park's Orpen Gate. The lodge offers luxury tents and well-appointed chalets with private pool.

The staff at Phelwana are simply the best. Katie and her team were very accommodating and especially helpful when we had a minor medical emergency. They were the family away from home we needed!

Set within Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate, Lindiwe Safari Lodge offers air-conditioned and modern accommodations with free WiFi. The lodge has a terrace with outdoor pool.

This lodge is AMAZING! The owner, the staff, the animals!! Room is great, bed is comfortable, food was delicious!! Staying there is honestly better than going out on a safari. They have a resident porcupine who visits nightly, a squirrel that you can hold, giraffe, monkeys, we didn’t see the leopard but apparently it’s there.

Offering a 20-yard pool, Unembeza Boutique Lodge is located in Hoedspruit. Free WiFi is offered throughout the property and free private parking is available on site.

The staff, the food, and the service was excellent. However, the WiFi wasn’t working in my room. I had to walk 15 minutes to the lobby to get my internet working. That was very inconvenient. Otherwise this little boutique is very special and unique.

    Exceptional service in an exceptional location. once you’ve done a safari in a private reserve you will never look back, and this is the best lodge in the best reserve. Made to feel very special, all the staff knew our names from the moment we arrived. Game drives all stunning, good fabulous and nothing was too much trouble. already plotting our return, and this time we will bring friends and family to share it with. Justice and Elvis were the best of hosts on the game drives.

    Incredible service from the time we arrived until we had left. We were lucky enough to spot the big 5 in just two game drives and witnessed a lion hunt. The open safari experience was exhilarating in comparison to other 5 star lodges visited previously. The staff are so friendly and welcoming! The luxury tent was superb in every aspect, exactly as advertised. Food was delicious and my husband is vegetarian so his meals were also well catered for and divine. We also tried the River Lodge Spa, this was one of the finest spas I have been too.

    The Kapama Game Reserve is the best cost benefit Lodge in Hoespruit! Everything is well organized and carefully planned. They pick you up at the airport, give you all the support during the stay and prepare the schedule perfectly for you to enjoy a memorable Safari Game, swimming pool, gym and meals in there. I spent my honeymoon and I couldn't chose any other place. All the team are so friendly and kind that I am sure I will be there a second time.

    Its a fantastic private reserve, easily accessible from the Airport with well organised private transfers. You can enjoy a lodge experience here, as well as a boutique hotel feel if you prefer. A perfect balance - the rangers and trackers are excellent, we saw the Big 5, smaller animals and a wonderful array of birds - great safari experience.
