Sabie River Bush Lodge

All the meals were TERRIBLE. We did a guided drive of 2000 ZAR for two of us was badly done- guide kept stalling the car and didn’t speak English well. Location is okay, nice views of river and hippos. Very basic in many ways.

8 people for a week over Xmas, loved the view on the river bank. But when you remember the names of mostly all the staff on the property you know how amazing they were! They arranged a pvt bbq for my family, everything is no trouble, even when the weather wasn’t the best. This is their appeal and can’t recommend this place more and will certainly be back

We were a group of 4, 2 couples and each one of us really appreciate the stay (package with safaris incluses) ! The staff is amazing, rooms are beautiful, food is good and we love to see hippos and elephants from the pool… 100% recommand

Quick weekend away. Managed to catch the big five, 2 of which we saw from our tent veranda coming down for a drink! Loved the pool and deck , and the views. Food was decent, service great. Game drive super!

The view on the deck is to die for, especially early mornings and at night watching hippos. I loved the personal service given by the waiters and dinner was superb. Ideal for making trips into the KNP due to its proximity. The place is easy to find, almost next to the main road.

It was for my sisters and me the perfect break after the Kruger before going home. Would have been nice for 2 nights. The staff was amazing and the food good .Food and drinjs were decent priced. Overall a very pleasant experience. Thank you

The road towards the lodge from Hazyview was a little dodgy, but we were pleasantly surprised once we arrived. The most impressive thing was how friendly, helpful and attentive the staff were. They even washed our dusty car and stored our snacks in the kitchen fridge overnight. It was amazing being able to float in the pool and see and hear the hippos just a hundred meters away in the Sabie river. The meals were delicious and generous. And it’s so close to the Kruger gate! Excellent value overall compared to the accommodation offered inside Kruger that is overpriced and dated.

The staff is wonderful here, the views of the river (and sometimes hippos and kudu) are nice, the food is decent. They were able to accommodate us on vegetarian meals. The room and beds are comfortable. The parking lot is dirt/clay so may get muddy after a rain. And it's a fairly short drive to Kruger Gate. The safaris in the park that they can arrange are quite expensive and we should have passed, as we saw so much more on our own self-drive the next day.

A small resort sitting right by the river- the staff were very friendly and helpful- and because their Wi-Fi was down the receptionist allowed me to use his phone as a hotspot which was very helpful. My wife and I being vegetarian were very pleased with the meal they provided-- the chef went out of his way to do a nice vegetarian option for us. The restaurant overlooks the river- and it was lovely to see hippos playing in the water at night
