La Kruger Lifestyle Lodge - No Loadshedding

We had a wonderful stay at La Kruger which managed to substantially exceed all our expectations. The lodge itself is a collection of elegant buildings which are obviously well maintained and scrupulously clean. Our room had all that we required: the bed was very comfy, everything in the bathroom worked properly, the air conditioning was very effective and kept the room cool in 38C. There are places to sit very comfortably around the complex as well as outside one's room and a couple of plunge pools. The staff were quite delightful. Charming and ever helpful. Sobelo, Given and the others did everything possible to make our stay a delight. The food was truly excellent. Breakfast wás comprehensive and delicious, lunch for the few not on safari and other trips, simple but tasty and the dinners imaginative and delicious. The Kruger National Park, it's staff and the game rangers really came up trumps. In 3 safaris (and another in Marloth Park itself) we saw lions twice, spent time with a pack of wild dogs, saw a leopard and a cheetah, some kudu and dozens of elephants and giraffe, got surrounded by a herd of buffalo ( bit unnerving!) and saw innumerable zebra, impala and other buck. A truly wonderful trip and an excellent place to stay

This is a lengthy one - grab a coffee! We booked our trip to this lovely lodge via Voyage Prive, we stayed 7 nights. It was Full Board which included soft drinks and a stay in a luxury chalet with open vehicle safari drives included. The lodge is situated about 20 minutes from Kruger in a beautiful area called Marloth park. We had the most amazing time, my husband celebrated his 50th birthday while here and the staff certainly pulled out all the stops to make it very special. Our chalet was bush willow, very private and in good conditions as per the online images. I found all the staff extremely friendly and helpful and they work extremely hard. I particularly want to point out Given who was like a friend to us. The food was of good quality breakfast had lots of options from continental to many hot a la carte options. This was especially enjoyable after a sunrise safari! Lunch was a selection of sandwiches/ burgers and salads! The chips are some of the nicest I’ve ever had- recommend trying them. Dinner was 3 courses the menu was displayed outside daily. I enjoyed the dinners I would say I would have preferred to have a choice but each day there was a meat, vegetables and potatoes, couscous or rice. I would have liked to have perhaps pasta or a casserole but I think the food was typical of the region. Nice choice of wine options to purchase. We were busy each day with safaris and day trips and all were expertly organised by Jacques and the team. Jacques is a real asset to the place and kept us up to date at all times and check in on us regularly. The area around the lodge is lovely. Lots of animals roaming freely and monkeys playing in the trees. This was a real delight. There is a pool and sun loungers to use. We didn’t use the pool as it was too cold when we were there but I think it would be very refreshing in the hot summer. We really enjoyed evenings sitting outside by the fire with a blanket and glass of wine. It was magical. This is was a trip of a lifetime for us and La Kruger made it extra special. For anyone thinking of visiting in June. There was plenty of sunshine midday to early afternoon. But once the sun was gone it was very cold. It was absolutely freezing in Kruger national park at sunrise. Wrap up very well. Thank you Jacques and team for everything. If we are visiting Kruger again we will stay again.

Perfect lodge, great Food and Service. A huge thank you to Given! Your support, dedication, and help mean a lot to us. Your commitment is simply invaluable – a thousand thanks for that! We are going to miss you and hopefully See you next time! Best, Tom And Tamara

Great lodge. Friendly and attentive staff. Although we only had bed and breakfast as family members were staying elsewhere, the lodge was clean, comfortable and the breakfast was great and a good start to the day. The price for two of us was also very reasonable and we will definitely consider booking again when we come that way again, and partake in dinner menu as well.

What an amazing stay we had at LA Kruger. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was gorgeous and had everything we needed. So comfortable, clean and well equipped. We even had a lovely Lapa next to the room where we could enjoy an early morning coffee and watch the wild animals from there. I will highlight recommend this guest house to anybody in need of a nice getaway.

Super friendly staff upon arrival! It was really hot and they offered us a delicious welcome drink! Our room was spacious with a really comfy bed and pillows! A lot of extra’s in the room like a hair dryer. We had a large terrace from which we could spot the monkeys. Dinner and breakfast service was perfect! ‘Given’ our host was just lovely and attentive! We would recommend this place highly!
