The property is wonderfully situated next to the river and animals can be seen at all times of the day from the common area or your balcony. The game drives were absolutely amazing. We got the big 5 and so much more! Staff are lovely and guides knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Umkumbe Riverside Lodge! Best Christmas morning of my 59 years.

We absolutely loved the staff and the very warm welcome!! The accommodations were excellent. The food was phenomenal, and the chef even prepared delicious vegetarian food for half of our family! The airport pick-up staff was friendly and starting showing us animals as we drove from the airport to our lodging. The view of the river from our private patio was just gorgeous, and we witnessed a family of elephants coming down to the river upon arrival. The evening drive and the morning drive were perfect and we were able to see the Big 5… actually only 4 ( didn’t see a rhino) but we all learned so much! We enjoyed every moment and appreciated the parka jackets ( a very cold morning!) and mountain top break with snacks with the morning game drive. FYI: the morning and evening game drives are included with your stay. Highly recommend Leopard Sands for an amazing Kruger Park experience of a lifetime!

Spacious and comfortable room and lovely pool and gym facilities. Immediate access the park so great for self-drives or guided tours. The breakfast buffet was excellent but the evening buffet was pretty average, however, there are other restaurant choices within walking distance.

Skukuza is a gem—especially if you want that mix of real bush experience without giving up comfort. It’s one of the bigger camps in Kruger, so there’s quite a bit going on, but it still manages to feel peaceful. Favourite spots: We really enjoyed the early morning drives around the park. We were self-driving but cleverly kept an eye on the guided tour operator vehicles, and that helped us catch most of the big sightings. It made the whole experience exciting and rewarding. Where we ate: We mostly self-catered but had a nice meal at the Kruger Hotel on our first evening after arriving past 7 pm. Most of our shopping was done at the Park Shop inside the camp—it was well-stocked and convenient. We even bought some game meat (like kudu and impala), which we braaied once we returned to Rixile. It was delicious and made for a real bush-style dinner. Getting around: Very easy. The camp is drivable and well signposted. If you’re self-driving (as most people are), Skukuza is a great central base for game drives, with plenty of routes and good animal sightings in every direction. Activities for groups of friends: Game drives are the highlight—we had some unforgettable ones. I'd also suggest booking a guided morning drive and, if you're feeling adventurous, trying different types of game meat like wildebeest, crocodile, or impala. It’s a fun experience to share as a group. Evenings back at camp were equally special—braaiing under the stars, swapping stories, and comparing notes on sightings. Skukuza offers just the right balance of wild and comfortable.

I saw loads of the animals I was looking for, Giraffe, Rhino, Impala, Crocodile, Elephants Kudu, and even a couple of Lions and 2 Leopards. Saw the Wild Dogs and Buffalo. I also played golf at Skukuza Golf Club which was a bit of fun. Everyone was friendly and we always felt safe.

Located close skukuza gate of the Kruger national park.

Located close skukuza gate of the Kruger national park. It was value for money. Friendly staff and helpful. Missed having a kitchen portion, as it was not self catering. Really enjoyed our stay there.

The game viewing was absolutely brilliant and our guide Nelly was excellent. Location, this hotel has serious WOW factor. The accommodation on the bridge is breathtaking, spacious and luxurious with mesmerizing views. The food was delicious and each meal was perfectly delivered. The all inclusive beverage selection was extremely generous. 3 swimming pools to pick from... it was a real treat. The staff really stood out. Bheki, Venolia, Nelly (our driver)... they were incredibly friendly and could not do enough for the guests.

Beautiful cottage in the bush, very tastefully furnished to a very high standard. The location is fantastic both proximity to the Kruger Park and to the Kruger Gate Hotel. Great birdlife and buck appearing from the bush occasionally. The host couldn’t have been friendlier and more welcoming. You can see a lot of thought and care has gone into this property. A highlight of our stay in the area! Will definitely go back !

This was the only accomodation I could find last minute in Lower Sabie and had low expectations but it was actually cute and very comfortable with parking space right next to tent, comfortable beds, ac, large fridge and a great campsite environment around. We saw more interesting animals here than Skukuza. Menzie, the young man who maintains the tents is lovely. No bugs in September, no crime.
