We had such an amazing time at Hennie’s Rest, we flew into Kruger Mpumalanga Airport and it was an easy drive to get to Malelane and Hennie’s rest from there! We arrived to a warm welcome from Cornelia who gave us advice on the best game drives in Kruger park and where to pick up a good pair of binoculars so we had the best experience! We went on a sunset drive the day we arrived thanks to Cornelia’s knowledge of the Malelane gate which is a very convenient 10 minute drive away.
When we weren’t heading into the park we had an amazing time looking out over the crocodile river and spotting a large variety of wildlife from elephants, crocodiles and kudu to king fishers, geckos and guinea fowl. Throughout the day we were entertained by the animals, even when braaing in the dark we had some hippos join us.
Cornelia is an excellent host with excellent knowledge of the local area and the ins and outs of visiting South Africa as a tourist. We would have been in quite a pickle if we hadn’t read Cornelia’s info on car rentals and ensuring we had a document saying we could take it into Eswatini - thankfully we were able to go to the local branch and get that sorted before arriving at the border! I was especially thankful for the homey addition of hot water bottles for the slightly chillier evenings.
Thanks for looking after us so well and sharing your amazing spot in the world- we have already let our friends know about your beautiful spot and would recommend it to anyone!

It looked fabulous, but after calling the host on a number of occasions we were advised that it was double booked (all Booking.com’s fault she said). We were directed to her other property, which we declined and had to look elsewhere for accommodation at 5pm. We didn’t like the fact that we’d paid in advance for nothing. Not even an apology.
Set within 5.5 km of Leopard Creek Country Club and 3.1 km of Malelane Gate, Mhlati Guest Cottages provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Malelane.

Excellent gate to enter Kruger Park.
Excellent gate to enter Kruger Park. Nice places to stay should you need to outside the park. Can get out of the car on the bridge . Ensure car is locked before going into the reception and valuables not seen.

Located very near to Malelane Gate entrance to Kruger Park and close to a shopping centre with a huge supermarket where you can grab something to eat.
We ate dinner once at the hotel (we were the only guests!) and the steak was wonderful.
Beds were extremely comfortable and the sunset from the bedroom was stunning.
We loved our stay at River House Lodge. All the staff was great, super available and kind. They took care of scheduling the game drives for us, which was incredibly helpful. The food at dinner was great!
