Description

Hippo WaterFront Lodge is situated only 10 km from the city of Mbombela (Nelspruit), the capital of Mpumalanga and less than 6 km from the Mbombela Stadium close to one of the most prestigious game reserves in Africa, the Kruger National Park.

Clean and comfortable log cabins with river views await visitors. Here guests can just relax and enjoy the peacefulness of nature. Bird watching, fishing and hippos in the river are just some of the exciting things this lodge has to offer.

The sub-tropical climate gives the lodge a delightful setting in a lush countryside with lawns filled with trees, birds, flowers, fruits and nuts. Frequent visits by the river resident hippos create a lot of excitement every now and again.

There are many places of historical interest and natural beauty nearby, like Gods Window, the Blyde River Canyon, Sabie, Potholes, Sudwala caves, Pilgrims Rest and botanical gardens which offer delightful day drives. Three hours from Johannesburg and 45 km from the Kruger Park, Hippo Water Front is the ideal stopover to the Kruger National Park, Maputo and the Mpumalanga Lowveld. It is also a perfect base to explore the natural wonders and the rich history of the area.

Comfortable and satisfied. Nice stay, only a few things in the kitchen that are broken. Lids etc., otherwise everything was perfect.
