Kruger National Park Luxury Lodges

View all Luxury Accommodation

The best luxury Kruger safari lodges are not always the most expensive and you don't have to spend lavishly to be able to enjoy a superb - and luxurious - safari experience.

The top Kruger safari lodges listed below are situated in a variety of environments, from the private reserves flanking the western border of the Kruger Park to the private concessions within the Kruger proper.

The luxury Kruger lodges within these areas offer every possible creature comfort in the middle of pristine wilderness. From luxury tented accommodation to air-conditioned suites, these Kruger lodges all have spacious rooms with upmarket finishes.

Lodge prices are usually inclusive of food, local beverages and safari activities and the service is world class. Game drives are limited to six to eight guests and you can expect to have a great game viewing experience.

In both the private Kruger concessions and private reserves, the rangers are allowed to drive off-road and there's less likelihood that you'll see other vehicles on your game drives.

We Recommend:

Simbambili Game Lodge - Overlooking the Manyeleti River in the Sabi Sand Private Reserve, situated adjacent to the Kruger Park, Simbambili is known for its attentive staff, amazing hospitality and a meticulous attention to detail. Each private chalet has a plunge pool and deck overlooking the river. Private, with excellent game viewing (from the Big Five to birdlife), this is a reasonably priced and comfortable luxury safari option

Ngala Tented Camp - Situated on the banks of the Timbavati River in the Kruger National Park, Ngala is an eco-friendly luxury tented camp that offers excellent Big Five sightings. The tented suites are perched on raised platforms with private wooden decks.

Lion Sands River Lodge - Uninterrupted views, superb game viewing, and a relaxed home-away-from-home feel make Lion Sands River Lodge an excellent choice for people wanting to enjoy comfortable and luxurious safari accommodation without the hefty price tag. A bush dinner is a highlight of any stay here, and you can enjoy a bush breakfast on the open plains of the Sabi Sands Private Reserve or dine in the wild night by the light of paraffin lamps and a big open campfire.

Pafuri Camp - Setting the standard for luxury tented safari accommodation, remote and unspoilt Pafuri Camp is tucked discretely into the extreme north of the Kruger Park. Every room at the lodge has its own private deck from which guests can watch the game congregating at the Luvuvhu River.
