Highly recommend. The photos don't do it justice - the main photo on booking.com is washed out / over-exposed which made me feel a bit uncertain about what it would be like. But it's actually a lovely, well-kept place that seems to have been constructed quite recently. Everything works. Andy was very communicative by WhatsApp in advance of and during the booking. There are LOTS of animals around - including zebras, ostriches, giraffes and ?kudu. The ostriches and zebra came right up to the fence of the main homestead (where our accommodation was), which our kids loved. There's a lovely pool and some resident peacocks. Our booking included breakfast (which I hadn't actually realised at the time of booking), which was prepared by a very friendly staff member. We were the only guests in the main part of the homestead - perhaps it would be different if all the units were full. We had the place to ourselves and it was peaceful and enjoyable. While there are some Went out for an early morning drive by ourselves to look for some more animals. Only suggestion to the team is to work on improving the laminated map that they provide for self-driving safari. It worked OK for us, but I think could be enhanced / professionalised for a better experience.

nothing, everything was up to our expectations

Seeing the different animals, the view of the mountain was beautiful. Friendly staff, they even assisted us with setting up the fire, there was not restrictions with the music we played. We took a lot of beautiful pictures and created good memories. We would love to visit there again.

Nothing it was great

Incredible location on a private reserve. Relaxing by the pool you can see ostrich, zebra, warthogs and if you're lucky giraffes and buffalo. Pool area very nice, and cheap beer served. Rooms super comfortable. Andy was very friendly and gave lots of information and advice about the area. We did the quad bike tour at sunset time and it was an amazing experience. Saw lots of animals, learned about the area and saw beautiful views of the area from different spots. I would 1000% recommend staying here before entering Kruger. It's only one hour to Orpen Gate, and from there you can easily get to Satara (best area), Olifants or Lower Sabie. There is a restaurant nearby, I think called Blue Mountain, and the food is superb.

Everything.

Too good for one night. This also applies to the Budget Room, where you can still use kitchen, living room and veranda. There are buffalo and other wildlife in the park and occasionally leopards. It is the perfect transition to the Kruger National Park, or rather the weaning from it.

For more than two nights stay the rooms we're not cleaned

The owners warm welcome, the animals roming around the accommodation

There was absolutely nothing that we didn't enjoy about African Dream Tour, we only wished we had stayed longer! Next time!

What an amazing place, we had a fantastic stay here, Andy and Christine are such welcoming and friendly hosts. The room we stayed in was extremely comfy for myself and my teenager and finished to a high standard. There is a lovely communal lounge area with everything you could want, as well as a cooking area (a fire was lit ready for us in the evening) and lovely clean pool with sun loungers. We did a two hour quad bike safari in the afternoon which was without doubt the highlight of my teenagers whole holiday, such great fun and lots of animals to see around the property. The views of the Drakensberg were exceptional. It is an easy drive out from Hoedspruit and we went on to Kruger after leaving which was only just over an hour away. We will definitely go back again (the luxury tent accommodation with hot tub looks very tempting!) and would highly recommend visiting here.

Everything was that nice. No bad things.

Wonderful surprise to discover this magic lodge right in the middle of wild animals. Host’ team was so welcoming. Warm recommendation !

Stayed in August 2023

No television in the room. No braai area, I think they should have a braai area for each house

Safe and nice place to be. The room was clean and the bedding was clean also. The room has enough space. Bed was comfortable

It is a little paradies. Driving past the gat we quickly saw zebra, antilopes, buffalo, warthog and giraffe. Really a beautiful little game reserve. Our cottage was spacious, clean and had everything you need. Very peaceful and a lovely owner+staff. We could stay only 1 night, but would love to come back for longer.
