Fabulous lodge in close proximity to Paul Kruger Gate Kruger Park.

Fabulous gem tucked away but very convenient to the Paul Kruger Gate to Kruger Park. Our river view chalet was beautifully appointed with a very comfortable bed and lovely en suite bathroom. Lovely views out to the river from the pool deck, which must be fabulous in the summer months. Highly recommend this lodge. The dinner was wholesome and served piping hot, which is a plus. They even bake their own bread.

Great location and comfortable bed, but bathroom flooded.

Super convenient and stunning location along the Sabie river. Self-catering facilities were great and bed was amazingly comfortable, also appreciated the mosquito net. Our bathroom flooded after we both showered and it was not drained for use for later that evening or the next morning by the time we checked out at 10 am so we had to use the breakfast area's communal bathroom to brush our teeth etc. which wasn't ideal. Faster response times there would be the only suggested improvement, so value for money and customer service are rated lower than 5 stars this time around.

Little piece of heaven.

Sabie River Bush Lodge is a little piece of heaven where one can just sit back, and relax while listening to the soothing sound of the hippos and watching them play. Then you also have the surprise of an elephant of two passing by. The staff at Sabie River Bush Lodge went the extra mile and even surprised us with a car wash the next morning. Really great value for money.

Ons het heerlik gekuier, lekker gerus en die etes baie geniet!

Ons het so vir 5 dae eers lekker gaan uitrus by Sabie River Bush Lodge. Ons het in die luukse Tent no 1 gebly. Dit was 'n fees met jou eie privaat badkamer en kombuis. Mooi uitsig van die stoep af - het die swembad ook baie geniet. Ons sal vir seker weer in die toekoms graag daarheen gaan. Van daar af is ons in die Krugerwildtuin in. Die personeel is vriendelik en het elke dag ons kar gewas.

We had a great time, rested well and really enjoyed the meals!

We went to have a good rest at Sabie River Bush Lodge for 5 days. We stayed in the luxury Tent no 1. It was a feast with your own private bathroom and kitchen. Nice view from the porch - enjoyed the pool a lot too. We would love to go there again in the future for sure. From there we entered the Kruger National Park. The staff is friendly and washed our car every day.

Uitstekende ligging en verblyf naby Kruger.

Verrewag die beste personeeldiens wat ons nog ooit ontvang het! Ons het die luukse tent met eie badkamer en heerlike kombuisie geniet, asook die uitsig vanaf die dek met lekker boma-vuurtjie. Die bestuurder het ons persoonlik kom wys hoe die ander akkommodasiegeriewe lyk, en ek kan dit beslis aanbeveel. Die ete was nie so goed nie, maar die addisionele dienste soos was van die motor was uitmuntend. Sal weer kom, en langer bly.

Excellent location and accommodation close to Kruger.

Expect the best staff service we have ever received! We enjoyed the luxury tent with its own bathroom and delicious kitchenette, as well as the view from the deck with a nice boma fire. The manager personally came to show us what the other accommodation facilities look like, and I can definitely recommend it. The meal was not that good, but the additional services such as washing the car were excellent. Will come again, and stay longer.

Absoluut fantastiese verblyf

Ons was so verras met die tent-akkommodasie. Elke tent het sy eie kombuis en massiewe badkamer net agter die tente. Seekoeie was die heel week reg voor die dek. Enigste negatiewe aspek is die omliggende lawaai van Shebeens of kuier plekke.

We were so surprised with the tent accommodation. Each tent has its own kitchen and massive bathroom just behind the tents. Hippos were right in front of the deck all week. Only negative aspect is the surrounding noise from Shebeens or hangouts.

Rustige naweekwegbreek.

Sabie River Bush Lodge is lekker naby die Kruger en Pambheni-hek van die Krugerwildtuin geleë. Die verblyf is veilig, netjies, kos heerlik en die kliëntediens was uit die boeke. Die lodge het selfs ons motor elke dag gewas na ons dag se rit in die wildtuin. Die uitsig op die dek is asemrowend met besoekers van seekoeie en olifante elke dag. Ons sal Sabie River Bush Lodge met graagte aanbeveel.

Sabie River Bush Lodge is conveniently located near the Kruger and Pambheni gates of the Kruger National Park. The accommodation is safe, tidy, food is delicious and the customer service was out of the books. The lodge even washed our car every day after our day's drive in the game park. The view on the deck is breathtaking with visitors from hippos and elephants every day. We would be happy to recommend Sabie River Bush Lodge.

This lodge is absolutely beautiful, exquisitely manicured gardens, friendliest/helpful staff, accommodation great - including the little touches of chocolates on pillow. Food was spot on with a really delicious breakfast. I cannot believe what value for money this is, with the perfect location, overlooking the Sabie river, close to Kruger.

Uitstekende diens deur vriendelike personeel. Dit was fantasties! Sal beslis weer boek. Alles was net baie lekker, ek sal Sabie River Bush Lodge met graagte aanbeveel.

Die enigste nadeel is dat dit basies teen die hoofpad en omliggende trust gebied geleë is wat die natuur en bosgeluide bietjie uitdoof. Maar andersins in die lodge-area, was alles van uitstekende hoë gehalte. Ek sal beslis weer soontoe gaan.

The only downside is that it is basically located against the main road and surrounding trust area, which drowns out the nature and forest sounds a bit. But otherwise in the lodge area, everything was of excellent high quality. I will definitely go there again.

Fantasties. Dit het alle verwagtinge oortref.

Ons verblyf was aangenaam. Die personeel is baie vriendelik en professioneel. Algemene netheid is baie goed. Ek wil graag vir Patrick uitsonder. Ek het my trouring Woensdagoggend op die bedkassie vergeet. Ek het dit eers agtergekom nadat ons reeds weg was. My vrou het die Lodge gebel en vir Patrick ingelig van die verlies. Hy het ons later terug gebel en meegedeel dat die ring gekry is en dat hy dit sal oorhandig aan die persoon wat by hom oorneem. Ons het Saterdag daar aangegaan en my ring was netjies gebêre. Dit spreek van integriteit ─ iets wat deesdae baie skaars is. Volgende keer bring ons die kinders saam.

Fantastic. It exceeded all expectations.

Our stay was pleasant. The staff is very friendly and professional. General cleanliness is very good. I would like to single out Patrick. I forgot my wedding ring on the bedside table on Wednesday morning. I only realized it after we had already left. My wife called the Lodge and informed Patrick of the loss. He later called us back and told us that the ring had been found and that he would hand it over to the person taking over from him. We went there on Saturday and my ring was neatly stored. It speaks of integrity ─ something that is very rare these days. Next time we'll bring the kids.

Heerlike plek om net te ontspan waar etes ingesluit word en ons net rustig kon verkeer met vriendelike personeel wat gereed staan om ons te bedien en seker te maak als is in plek. Die seekoeigat kan jou heeldag besig hou met die aktiwiteite van die seekoeie.

Hippo pleasure.

A wonderful place to just relax where meals are included and we could just relax with friendly staff who are ready to serve us and make sure everything is in place. The hippo hole can keep you busy all day with the activities of the hippos.

Goeie waarde vir geld met 'n uitstekende uitsig!

Sabie River Bush Lodge is geleë op die oewer van die Sabierivier met 'n uitstekende uitsig oor die Kruger Nasionale Park. Goeie diens, mooi ingerigte kamer en baie lekker kos. Kan Sabie River Bush Lodge aanbeveel.

Waarde vir geld.

Sabie River Bush Lodge is geleë in 'n area waar ander lodges baie meer geld vra vir - volgens my dieselfde (Diens, kos en akkommodasie). Ons beveel Sabie River Bush Lodge enige tyd aan.

Luxurious cabin stay in the wild.

The Lodge is conveniently close to the Kruger Park. There’s various options of accommodation available. We stayed in the family log cabin which was so comfortable & luxurious. Beautiful white linen. We had air conditioning in every room. The bathroom is stunning with twin basins. Our view was probably the most surprising looking into the Sabie River on the Kruger side. We saw Hippo everyday sitting outside and heard them right by the fence at night. Only downside is that the lodge is based on a busy road and you can hear the traffic and music from a nearby tavern.

Sabie River Bush Lodge is rustig, pragtig en ideaal vir 'n wegbreek van die stad se lawaai.

Ek sal definitief enige een aanbeveel om gerus van hierdie verblyf gebruik te maak, die personeel is vriendelik, behulpsaam en die kos is van uitstaande gehalte. Die atmosfeer is rustig en die fasiliteite is netjies en skoon en bied jou die geleentheid om te ontspan en die natuur te geniet. Ons was selfs so bevoorreg om 'n trop Olifante te sien terwyl ons 'n heerlike vroegoggend ontbyt op die dek geniet het. Ons het ook 'n nag wildrit bespreek en dit was 'n groot avontuur om in die nag in die Kruger wildtuin te kon ry saam met 'n gids. Ons motor is ook elke dag pragtig gewas en tydens ons verblyf kon ons elke dag met 'n skoon avontuur begin. Die oord is ook gerieflik naby genoeg aan die wildtuin geleë en binne ongeveer 20 minute kan jy die Kruger hek bereik. Dankie weereens vir die ongelooflike lekker verblyf, dit was voorwaar 'n hoogtepunt om ons wittebrood by julle te kon afsluit.

Sabie River Bush Lodge is peaceful, beautiful and ideal for a break from the city noise.

I would definitely recommend anyone to make use of this accommodation, the staff are friendly, helpful and the food is of excellent quality. The atmosphere is peaceful and the facilities are neat and clean and offer you the opportunity to relax and enjoy nature. We were even lucky enough to see a herd of Elephants while enjoying a delicious early morning breakfast on the deck. We also booked a night game drive and it was a great adventure to be able to drive at night in the Kruger game park with a guide. Our car was also beautifully washed every day and during our stay we were able to start each day with a clean adventure. The resort is also conveniently located close enough to the wildlife park and within about 20 minutes you can reach the Kruger gate. Thank you again for the incredibly nice stay, it was truly a highlight to be able to conclude our honeymoon with you.

Slegs 19 km van die Krugerwildtuin af. Baie privaat, skoon en die etes smaaklik en bediening flink.

Ons het in 'n luukse bostent gewoon en drie nagte vertoef. Die selfsorggeriewe is voldoende en baie lekker privaat met selfs 'n ketelbraai tot ons beskikking - ongelukkig sonder hout of dat ons daarvan kennis gedra het en nie voorsiening daarvoor gemaak het nie. Ons sou 'n kombinasie van 'n en suite-tent met selfsorggeriewe verkies het. Voornemende besoekers word aangeraai om die N40 vanaf Witrivier na Hazyview te volg en nie die R538 wat deur die digbewoonde woongebied met baie spoedwalle kronkel nie.

Only 19 km from the Kruger National Park. Very private, clean and the meals tasty and service quick.

We lived in a luxury forest tent and stayed for three nights. The self-catering facilities are sufficient and very nice and private with even a kettle braai at our disposal - unfortunately without wood or that we were aware of it and did not make provision for it. We would have preferred a combination of an en-suite tent with self-catering facilities. Prospective visitors are advised to follow the N40 from White River to Hazyview and not the R538 which winds through the densely populated residential area with many speed bumps.

Baie lekker verblyf, beste diens ooit van vriendelike lodge staff.

Beste ontvangs nog met Andries en Welcome. Hull het ons sommer baie welkom laat voel. Die tente waar ons geslaap het is bietjie te naby aan mekaar so dis nie regtig privaat nie. Die lodge is so uiteengesit, maar sou verkies het om een van die ander verblyfopsies te gebruik vir meer privaatheid. Die storte moet definitief 'n afskorting om kry. Als is nat nadat mens gestort het en dit maak dit regtig onaangenaam. Ons het selfsorg gekies maar wou een aand die hoofgereg bestel (chicken schnitzel met mushroom-sous) wat deel was van die volle menu in die restaurant. Ons het met Edwill gesels en hy't gesê dit sal moontlik wees om die prys aan te pas omdat ons nie die volle driegangmaaltyd wou hê nie. Toe die kos egter daar aankom, is dit in twee kantbordjies gesit met elkeen omtrent 3 tot 4 gesnyde mushrooms. Ek kon regtig nie glo wat ek sien nie. Ek weet nie hoe mense bly wat nie selfsorg doen nie, maar ek is bly dit was nie ek nie, want ek sou nie wou sien hoe die porsies was vir dié gaste nie. Eerste indrukke bly. Ek was self nege jaar in die restaurantbedryf en weet dat waarde vir geld, veral op kos, nie te versmaai is nie. Julle het so 'n mooi lodge. Moenie dat kos julle ondergang bewerkstellig nie. Dankie en groete!

Very nice stay, best service ever from friendly lodge staff.

Best reception yet with Andries and Welcome. Hull made us feel very welcome. The tents where we slept are a bit too close to each other so it's not really private. The lodge was set out as such but would have preferred to use one of the other accommodation options for more privacy. The showers definitely need a partition. Als is wet after showering and that makes it really unpleasant. We chose self-catering but one evening wanted to order the main course (chicken schnitzel with mushroom sauce) which was part of the full menu in the restaurant. We talked to Edwill and he said it would be possible to adjust the price because we didn't want the full three-course meal. However, when the food arrived, it was placed in two side plates with about 3 to 4 sliced mushrooms each. I really couldn't believe what I was seeing. I don't know how people live who don't self-catering, but I'm glad it wasn't me, because I wouldn't want to see how the portions were for these guests. First impressions last. I myself have been in the restaurant industry for nine years and know that value for money, especially on food, is not to be underestimated. You have such a beautiful lodge. Don't let food bring about your downfall. Thank you and greetings!

Awesome! Wat `n spesiale ervaring om in die bed te lê of op die stoep te sit (in tent) en uit te kyk oor die Sabierivier met die Wildtuin in die agtergrond.

Sabie River Bush Lodge was die ideale bestemming vir ons besoek aan die Wildtuin. Die Kruger- en Phabeni-hekke is vinnig bereikbaar om vroegdag toegang tot die Wildtuin te kry. Die tent was ingerig met die noodsaaklikste items, en die aparte kombuisie was `n bonus. Ons het beide aande die aandetes geëet. Goeie waarde vir geld, smaaklik voorberei, en `n móét om te geniet. Die butternut-sop was heerlik. Ons kon ook ons eerste swem vir die somer geniet met die rustigheid van die rivier en Wildtuin om die ervaring net nog meer spesiaal te maak. Die gasvryheid, hulpvaardigheid en diens was opvallend. En die skoon motor elke oggend `n groot bonus. Baie dankie vir julle aandeel om ons kuier onvergeetlik te maak. Blessings!

Awesome! What a special experience to stay in bed or to sit on the veranda (in tent) and to gaze over the Sabie River with the Kruger National Park in the background.

Sabie River Bush Lodge was the ideal destination for our visit to the Kruger National Park. The Kruger and Phabeni gates are easily reachable to gain early access to the Kruger National Park. The tent was furnished with the necessary items and the separate kitchen was a bonus. We enjoyed dinner both nights. Money well spent, deliciously prepared and a must to enjoy. The butternut soup was delicious. We also enjoyed our first swim for the summer with the peacefulness of the river and the Kruger National Park to make the experience even better. The hospitality, helpfulness and service was striking. And the clean car every morning a big bonus. Thank you very much for your part in making our stay unforgettable. Blessings!

After a week in Kruger National Park, Sabie River Bush Lodge was just the amount of luxury we needed. Excellent customer service - they even washed our truck for us!

Wonderfully relaxed stay and close to Kruger gate. Beautiful surroundings. No fridge and TV in the stay. Well WiFi. Delicious breakfast and dinner. Nice place to unwind after a day of wildlife tracking by the swimming pool.

Baie ontspannend en rustige atmosfeer.

Vriendelike ontvangs deur personeel. Tariewe is netjies en ons het ons tydjie daar vreeslik geniet. Beligting by die tente is bietjie swak.

Very relaxing and peaceful atmosphere.

Friendly reception by staff. Rates are neat and we really enjoyed our time there. Lighting at the tents is a bit poor.

Was baie rustig en heerlik!

Sal voorwaar terug gaan en beslis aanbeveel aan vriende/familie. Personeel baie hoflik en etes uit die boonste rakke. Die omgewing is lekker rustig en geen moeite word ontsien om jou so gemaklik moontlik te laat ontspan. Dit was 'n spesiale naweek weens 'n verjaarsdag-bederf, en hulle het ons soos koninklikes laat voel wat begedra het tot 'n wonderlike, ontspanne en genotvolle naweek! Baie dankie Lekkeslaap, want danksy julle webblad het ons hierdie stukkie paradys ontdek!

Will definitely go back and definitely recommend to friends/family. Staff very courteous and meals top notch. The environment is nice and quiet and no effort is spared to make you relax as comfortably as possible. It was a special weekend due to a birthday treat, and they made us feel like royalty leading to a wonderful, relaxing and enjoyable weekend! Thank you very much Lekeslaap, because thanks to your website we discovered this piece of paradise!

Dit was 'n heerlike ervaring!

Die personeel is fantasties an altyd vriendelik en behulpsaam. Alles is regtig baie skoon. Ons het in die tente geslaap en dit was heerlik warm, al was dit vriesend buite. Die beligting in die tente is net bietjie swak. Verder sal dit lekker wees as daar 'n spieël in die tente is. Daar is 'n rustige en intieme atmosfeer hier wat spesiaal is - selfs die kos proe soos huiskos. Alles en alles was dit 'n wonderlike ervaring!

It was a wonderful experience!

The staff are fantastic and always friendly and helpful. Everything is really very clean. We slept in the tents and it was deliciously warm, even though it was freezing outside. The lighting in the tents is just a little weak. Furthermore, it would be nice if there was a mirror in the tents. There is a calm and intimate atmosphere here which is special - even the food tastes like home cooking. All and all it was a great experience!

Food good,

Overall experience was average, friendly helpful staff, rooms small and stuffy - and needs aircon, so environmentally not friendly. One light bulb was blown so no pre-occupancy checks done I assume. Lodge feels secure and safe. Food was good.

Very pleasant with friendly staff and good food

The setting by the river was excellent with the occasional sightings of wild game. On the whole a really decent place to go for a short stay, with the Kruger Park being only 15 minutes away. My only complaint is the size of the allocated shower room. Very difficult for larger people to move around in.

We had a pleasant stay. The Lodge was very convenient for a 1-night stay prior to entering Kruger Park. Enjoyed the dinner overlooking the Sabie River. Packed breakfast was also very nice. Will recommend!

Skoon, gerieflik, goed gelee vir park.

Baie geniet. Perfek as net gemiddelde bekostigbare verblyf soek. Kos is ok, sonder om oopgewonde te raak daaroor. Alles baie netjies. Die personeel fantasties. Hulle is ongelooflik vriendelik. Ons het baie lekker gebly en sal dit enigetyd aanbeveel vir bekostigde, gemaklike, skoon verblyf naby die Wildtuin. Dit kan nie vergelyk word met 'n 5 ster lodge nie. Daarom vir wat hulle is en bied is, sal ek dit aanbeveel vir enige iemand.

Clean, comfortable, well located for park.

Enjoyed a lot. Perfect if just looking for average affordable accommodation. Food is ok, without being open-minded about it. Everything very neat. The staff fantastic. They are incredibly friendly. We had a great stay and would recommend it anytime for affordable, comfortable, clean accommodation near the Wildtuin. It cannot be compared to a 5 star lodge. Therefore for what they are and offer, I would recommend them to anyone.
