    I loved everything.

    This magical place was more than exceptional. If I could go above the rate of 10, it would be 20!! The place was wonderful, extremely clean and fitted out with the very best of everything , going from all the utensils, dishes pot and pans etc, I could not fault anything! The location was truly lovely and you felt as if you were in the bush with no one else around , as it is situated on a wildlife estate and all the houses on this 600 plus hectare estate, are very far apart and therefore very peaceful. Desiree was such a brilliant host and helped us with info re eateries, info on Kruger which roads to avoid, and so much more. Thank you, Desiree. You truly deserve your rating of 10! (20 !!). Many thanks 😊 🙏 .

    A Magical Escape in the Heart of Nature Africa House was everything we hoped for and more! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and kindness. The home is beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The bedroom felt like a private retreat with its own en-suite bathroom. The real highlight was the peaceful bush setting waking up to birdsong and watching wildlife roam freely just beyond the patio was truly unforgettable. The outdoor area, with the pool and braai, made every moment relaxing and special.

    There was nothing to dislike.

    Our stay was incredibly comfortable—an ideal choice for an authentic bush experience. We were captivated by the beauty of the house, its cleanliness, and the excellent facilities. The hosts clearly put a lot of thought and effort into making sure our time at Africa House was nothing short of exceptional. We truly appreciated the attention to detail, from the high-quality bed linen and plentiful cutlery to the convenience of the ice maker, as well as the thoughtful provision of wood for the braai and bonfire. These little touches made our stay even more enjoyable. We loved listening to the sounds of nature and spotting the amazing wildlife that wandered by to say hello. Waking up to the symphony of the wild, enjoying a good cup of coffee, and immersing ourselves in nature was truly magical. Desiree, you were a fantastic host! We had a wonderful time, and two nights simply weren’t enough—we wished we had more time to soak in the serenity

    We spent an incredible three days over Christmas at Africa House in Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate, and I cannot recommend this place enough. From the moment we arrived, it felt like a luxurious yet welcoming retreat, perfect for a family holiday. The house is absolutely stunning – a spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home filled with beautifully handcrafted furniture. Every detail, from the high-quality linen and towels to the extensive collection of crockery, cutlery, and glassware, reflects exceptional care and taste. The kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with essentials one would need during a short stay and some of the best freshly ground coffee we’ve ever had at a rental property. The swimming pool and ice machine were wonderful additions, making our stay even more comfortable. One of the standout features is that the owner is a talented wildlife photographer, and the house is filled with breathtaking canvases of animals he’s captured during his adventures. Each piece adds to the atmosphere, creating a space that feels connected to the surrounding wilderness. What truly made our stay memorable were the personal touches. We each received a personalized Christmas biscuit, there was a bottle of wine waiting for us, and a beautiful poinsettia plant added the perfect festive touch. These thoughtful details made us feel so welcome and added to the magic of spending Christmas there. The wildlife around the house was incredible – warthogs and antelopes roamed freely around the property, and the birdlife was abundant. Waking up to the sights and sounds of nature made the experience unforgettable. The hosts were exceptional – warm, attentive, and committed to ensuring our stay was perfect. If you’re looking for a luxurious, tranquil escape surrounded by nature, Africa House is the perfect choice. We’re already planning our return visit!
