    The idyllic sanctuary nestled in a shallow valley with soaring cliffs on one side and the tranquil flow of the Blyde River on the other was a breathtaking sight each morning.

    Shower cleanliness could have been better.

    I keep coming back to my favorite spot in Hoedspruit because it has everything I need: Free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, flat-screen TV, and a fitness center. The staff even helped me with taxi tips! See you this weekend.

    On a nature reserve. Good breakfast on patio. Zebra in the gardens.

    Staff stiff and over tutored rather than being themselves/personable. Getting luggage from car to room was a pain. Was further off the beaten track than expected.

    The African atmosohere and the natural ambiance and surroundings. Food was good and served on the verandah. Peace and quiet. The zebras at breakfast! Staff very friendly. Perfect location for a stay before entering or after leaving Kruger or the Panorama Route.

    The rooms were clean and comfortable but quite expensive compared with similar and better facilities in other parts of S.A. Room was not one of the more expensive for the Lodge but it was not very private, adjoining and in full view from reception which was a pity as I'm sure the individual rooms in the grounds were lovely (but much more expensive).

    Blyde River Canyon Lodge in Hoedspruit was chosen by my director for our recent business trip, and I must say it exceeded my expectations. The lodge offers a wonderful outdoor pool where guests can unwind and relax after a long day of work. I thoroughly enjoyed spending time by the pool, taking in the beautiful surroundings and enjoying the serene atmosphere.

    Stunning surroundings with cliffs and a river, plenty of activities to choose from. The villa was spacious with beautiful mountain views. Safety features included fire extinguisher. Oh, and they had coffee and tea, fancy!

    What a shame they didn't have a dancing unicorn in the lobby, would have made my stay perfect!

    I had the most amazing stay at a lodge nestled in a quiet, peaceful nature valley. The short romantic walkways and beautiful interior made me feel like I was in a dream. The highlight was seeing zebras walking to the lodge and enjoying the pool. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly, making me feel right at home. The lodge's location also provided easy access to the breathtaking Blyde River Canyon, where I enjoyed unforgettable hikes. I had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend this place for a nature-filled getaway.

    Wonderful location with jaw-dropping beauty, gorgeous grounds, and cozy, well-furnished lounge. The spacious loft suite was super comfortable and had all the necessary facilities. The separate house we booked exceeded expectations, thanks to the amazing housekeepers Liesbeth and Excellent. The sight of zebras drinking from the swimming pool during breakfast was mind-blowing. The staff was friendly and the food was very good. Porchia and her team, including the lady who cleaned our room, were absolute gems and provided exceptional service. The honesty and professionalism of the team were beyond good, exemplified when they promptly contacted us about a misplaced item. an amazing stay with a winning team. Highly recommended!

    This place is absolutely mind-blowing! The location is jaw-dropping, surrounded by breathtaking scenery and perfect for you to relax and enjoy the great outdoors. The management is super helpful, arranging affordable and amazing boat trips and suggesting the best routes and view points. The food is delicious, the service is top-notch, and the comfortable bed will give you a great night's sleep. Oh, and did I mention the animals? You can actually have breakfast or dinner while admiring some beautiful creatures! The small villas are incredibly comfortable and the splash pool adds an extra touch of luxury. The whole place feels secluded and intimate, with the sounds of birds making it even more magical. The staff is friendly and welcoming, making you feel like a VIP from the moment you arrive. And let's not forget about the zebras, they provide such entertaining entertainment. In short, this place is a paradise!
