"We had a great family stay at Sabie River Bush Lodge in one of the log cabins that had lots of room for a family of 4. The staff here go over and beyond to ensure that your stay is memorable.

"This is a nice property near Phabeni gate of Kruger National Park, which is just a 6 minute drive. Akani is a great host and if you need anything he will bend over backwards to help! You can park right next to your chalet, which is very helpful. - I personally hate lodges where you have to park a distance away! - There is a pub nearby that gets noisy at times, but if you run a fan it drowns out the noise. The property is very close to the main road and is very safe! "
