This lodge is fantastic overall and the food is outstanding! Just about the best lamb chops and steak we’ve ever had anywhere! Ordering on their app was super easy. Location is great as it sits on the crocodile river and animals (hippos, elephants, impalas) came to drink. Note that it is not close any “town” so plan to stay at the lodge. They do arrange game drives into Kruger. Airport transfers (50 min away) are also available. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend this lodge if you’re in that area.

This was our second time to the lodge, after falling in love with it on our first stay 8 years ago. we couldn’t not return for our honeymoon. We had such a great time. The lodge really is a home from home, such modern contemporary mixed with culture, creating the stunning space. The details on our stay was outstanding the friendly staff can not to enough for you, great day trips Dennis really showed us true African culture and it the day trips such great fun. Elvis the best safari guide there is, this truly shows with the love he has for making it special for the guests. We was extremely lucky to see everything and more, we even got to see elephant and leopard and many more up close at the lodge. One part that makes the lodge so special is how personal Leanne and her team make it for it individually guest. We can not wait to return one day. Best wishes Jade and Connor

My family and I stayed at Kambaku River Lodge for safari at Kruger. We had a beautiful 2 bedroom + 2 bathroom suite with a fully-equipped kitchen. After a long day of safari in Kruger, we came home to delicious home-cooked meals served on our private patio, where the staff also set up a fire pit every evening. The property is situated on the banks of the Crocodile River, so there is a constant parade of wild animals (elephants, hippos, warthogs, birds, etc.) right in the backyard. (The animals are protected from us humans by a discreet electric fence.) It really is such a beautiful property. With binoculars in one hand and a glass of Stellenbosch red in the other and a beautiful South African sunset in the background, what more can one ask for? As for the safaris, the lodge has its own vehicles and guides for drives into Kruger, with the Malelane gate a short distance away from the lodge. We signed up for morning and afternoon drives and were shown around by Kambaku’s Amanda and Elvis, guides who are very knowledgeable about all aspects of the park. We saw all sorts of amazing animals in short order. It was also very helpful to find the suite equipped with thermos/Stanley containers, blankets, and electric hand warmers, all very useful during the winter. We were also very impressed with the owner, Leanne (who lives on the property), and her attentive staff, who would stop at nothing to ensure that guests were completely happy with their stay. There is very much a personal touch at Kambaku that you just won't find in most other places. We chose Kambaku River Lodge because we wanted a memorable, high-quality safari experience, but also a good value—luxury amenities at a non-luxury price point. Importantly, we also felt completely safe in this gated property. For our style of travel, Kambaku was a perfect fit. Highly recommended!
