DESCRIPTION:
 
With a superb view of the Olifants River, this private bush lodge offers the ideal getaway for friends, family or business associates. Situated in a private big 5 game reserve which is adjacent to the Kruger National Park and Hans Merensky Hotel & Golf Estate in Phalaborwa, the lodge can sleep 10 guests sharing in en-suite rondawels. It is only a 30 minute drive from Phalaborwa Airport and your lodge host will be happy to collect you.

After an early game drive, morning brunch on the deck overlooking the river abundant with hippo and a variety of wildlife offers the type of relaxation needed by most. Sunset brings another opportunity to go game viewing and explore some of the nocturnal creatures that are found under spotlight. Tranquil evenings are spent around an open fire in the boma surrounded by the aromas of dinner being cooked in front of you and the calls of the wild.

This is a birders paradise with sightings of some species rarely seen elsewhere. Bush walks can be arranged and regular trips to play golf are also the order of the day. Children are welcome. All rooms are air-conditioned. Amenities include a swimming pool, bar, DSTV in the lounge which adjoins with the deck. Transfers from Hoedspruit Eastgate Airport can also be arranged along with Kruger Park and other day trips. Personal service and flexibility will make your experience one, you will never forget.
