Quiet, clean, beatiful and delicious

Pros: Friendly staff, clean, quiet and a perfect start of our honeymoon. They help you with arranging activities. Food was every day delicious.

Cons: We hoped to see more animals in front of our Window, but yeah the animal world can't be controlled, so nothing negative for the hotel :)

Nice lodge with great breakfast

Pros: Beautiful lodge located within the Hoedspruit wildlife estate. Floriane is a professional and friendly host. Rooms are spacious with an in- and outside shower. Breakfast is really great.

Cons: Off course the lodge is located in the bush, but it is still not nice to have a mouse in the room.

Relaxed stay in the bush of South Africa

Pros: Everything was perfect during our stay at Ukuthula Bush Lodge. From the hospitality from the staff to the arrangements we made through the lodge (game drives etc). The bungalow is very clean and nicely decorated, which really made it feel like home. Fabian, Floriane, chef Daniel and all of the staff made us feel very welcome! The lodge is perfecty located in the bush, connected to nature. Many different animals visited the front yard of our bungalow. The meals made by the chef/staff were very good and they take every wish you have into account. Again the staff is super friendly, which really made our holiday even more special. We can advice to stay here for a longer period of time, as there is plenty to do. Especially if you are into nature/wildlife. We stayed for 18 nights and it still felt too short.

Cons: Not a single complaint

Pros: We had an amazing time with the kids in that Estate. The place is very friendly and cosy, the staff is so kind and welcoming, and the food was really good. There are plenty of animals around and our day of safari in the Kruger was the best. Thank you very much to Fabian, Karine and their team!
