The staff was fantastic (specially our guide Kucho!), the position amazing. We spent 3 days in the lodge and we saw all the big five (and much more!) in our games.
The food was fantastic, the fireplace every evening at dinner was romantic, the little monkeys visiting while we were in the pool were so nice.. the room was perfect, the views at breakfast and lunch we’re beautiful.. we felt at home.

It was a great experience staying at Greenfoire lodge! We had the most amazing time at the safari as well as the stay. Given was an amazing guide and made us have maximum best experience at our safaris! And we did see the BIG 5s through his help :). Caroline and all other staffs very really sweet, helpful and accommodating. A huge shoutout to the chef who put in so much effort into our meals and each one of them was a treat to remember. Being vegans we had the most versatile food everyday! Over all the best 3 days!

guide William is the best guide you can imagine. always walks the extra mile. very good accomodation, extremly good food. View across the river ist spectacular. So many animals sightings right from the chalets.
The incredibly good `rusks` with coffee on a morning game drive is a must.
I defenitely come back....
Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
Dinner and breakfast were excellent. For dinner we tasted ostrich that was cooked in the best manner
Elephants and impalas walking around and getting back from evening safari we met hyena close to the lodge. It made our staying with positive emotions that we stayed in wild area
Our stay at Lions Place Lodge was fantastic. The lodge is beautiful and well-maintained, with lovely rooms and views of the bush. The friendly staff gave us a warm welcome and were always ready to ensure we had the best time.
We enjoyed a delicious breakfast in the mornings and dinner in the evenings. The location is perfect for safari enthusiasts, offering easy access to stunning bush walks and game drives.
Overall, Lions Place Lodge exceeded all our expectations. We highly recommend this lodge and look forward to returning!
My partner and I stayed for 2 nights as a birthday gift. It was amazing. Guide, Millie was fantastic and we were able to see an abundance of game throughout our 4 game drives. On arriving back to the lodge after our morning or evening drive, Hardus and the other staff had breakfast/dinner ready to go and it was delicious.
During the day, we sat by the pool and watched the elephants stroll by!
We would 10/10 recommend.
The staff were excellent. On the safari's we saw heaps of animals. Our guides went out of their way to find any animal we hadn't yet seen. Seeing all the hippos coming out of the river was the highlight of our trip!!
We had such a lovely time at Muweti. It is a small and intimate lodge with great staff. We really enjoyed the food and the personal touches. We loved to see the elephants from the watering hole and the guides taught us many interesting things about the bush and the wildlife.
A real safari experience. We also enjoyed interacting with other guests.
Thank you to the Muweti team!
The lodge is in a beautiful private game reserve in Greater Kruger. The wild animals are right next to the vence. The rooms were clean, cosy, spacious and just what you need after a safari day. Xander is extremely hospitable and Helen cooks the best breakfast, lunch and diner for you (Italian style). We recommend doing the activities with Xander in Grietjie instead of doing it yourself in Kruger, as he knows everything about the nature and the animals.
We loved every second :)
This Lodge is really living up to the great reviews it already got.
We felt so welcomed into this lovely family.
We especially liked that we got an honest and realistic perspective on safari and living in the nature reserves.
The owners take a lot of responsibility and put a lot of work into creating an environment were tourists and the animals can enjoy themselves and be safe.
I couldn't recommend it enough :)
We liked everything. The road to the lodge is long and a little bumpy, but we enjoyed this as an extra safari. We always saw animals. The hotel is amazing and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.
Our 3 day stay at lions place exceeded all of our expectations! The service, room and safari drives have all been amazing and if you are lucky many different animals come drink at the lodge. JP is a great host and really goes the extra mile to make your stay and game drives extra special. One of our most memorable stays ever!
