Malelane is very beautiful and easy to get around.
Malelane is very beautiful and easy to get around. I loved the wild life the most, it was pleasant view to watch the birds and animals roaming around freely. The staff at the gate were very friendly and helpful. Wish I had more time to give a constructive review but went to the park for just half a day and managed to see some of the big 5 which was the purpose of my visit.

There is supermarkets for pre Kruger shopping on the road out of Malalene. Major roadworks taking place out of Malalene. Beware of trucks and drive carefully. Not recommended to drive in the dark while roadworks in place.

Pastana still remains for me the most affordable best and well managed accommodation in Malelane.
The Restuarant always meet my expectation of the wide spread of eats available.
Malelane is very easy to navigate. It has all the amenities to accommodate a travelers needs
The town is very clean .
I would avoid accommodation I have not visited before. A picture tell a thousand tales. But some can be very deceiving and uncomfortable.

Malelane town is totally unappealing.
Malelane town is totally unappealing. The only reason for staying in the suburb we stayed in was a) it is outside the town and b) is close to the Kruger Park entrance. We stayed in Mhlathikop suburb, which is nice and can be recommended.

Trying to find a contact person with regards to the booking is impossible.
Sometimes in real life, things happen totally out of your control like COVID that was a world wide epidemic and how do a person handle a situation like this?
I just had no contact number from Booking.com to assist us and lost the money. This will make me think twice next time I want accommodation

.The self catering unit had everything I needed. The unit was spotless and cleaned daily. I liked the view of the dam and the mountains from my unit. Reception was friendly and helpful always (engaged with Letta). The checking in and checking out was seemless. Thank you Letta for organising Almond milk for me; highly appreciated as adhering to a vegan diet can be tricky in foreign town. Thank you Jimmy for the game drive at Kruger National Park; the experience was priceless.
The location is calming and surreal. The staff is amazing. The food is beautiful and tasty. The Chalets are lovely with a large bath and shower and a 270 degree view from the big bed. Restaurant area is wonderful with a bar, pool and lovely seating. We spotted buck, giraffes, butterflies, monkeys and more within the property. Kruger National Park Malelane gate is about 10 mins away excluding the time to drive the dirt road.
As the name says: an inn with a (perfect) view on the Crocodile River. We've seen rhino's, water buck, hippo's, and other wild animals on both sides and in the river. What a splendid place to start an/or end your day.
The rooms are spacious, and modern, with all facilities you need. The Riverview Inn is located only 10 minutes drive from Malelane Gate to visit Kruger Park. We certainly go back and spend some more time.
The deck overlooking the Crocodile River is an excellent place for sundowners or early morning tea. There is a floodlight for spotting game when it is dark. All the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. We had a very good supper and breakfast. The location is a very short drive away from the Kruger's Malelane Gate so we were able to get into the park early.
Amazing property!
We were staying here while on a visit to Kruger.
The location was just perfect. so close to Melalane gate . The restaurant packed us a lovely breakfast for our early start for the day.
The rooms were bare minimum but were exactly what we needed - comfortable & clean.
We also had dinner at the restaurant - tasty food & great service.
Excellent location, about 12-15 min drive to the Kruger Malelane gate. Beautiful area, very clean and neat, comfortable bed & excellent kitchen amenities. It would be excellent if the property included a mini splash pool to cool off in. Coffee machine was a bonus along with the complimentary wine, filtered water & chocolates in the fridge!
No breakfast supplied but but there are places close by to buy it as mentioned. The place is close to most shops/ mall. Rooms are big enough. Very friendly staff. The Kruger National park gate not far off but book in advance to avoid disappointment or you will be returned at the gate. I also liked their swimming pool and braai place.
Location is great next to the river you can see the animals from your balcony and from the eating / viewing area.
The venue has a generator so there is always electricity & the aircon's work (needed)
Rooms are comfortable and have all the basics it's not a city hotel but everything was provided to keep the guest happy
Central location in Melalane, very near to Melalane Kruger gate, clean hotel, helpful staff, safe parking.
Room had nice clean ensuite bathroom. They provide toiletries, bath towels, tea/coffee in rooms, small refrigerator in room. There is air-conditioning in rooms. They provide daily room cleaning service.
I think this place is totally what you need after spending all day at the Kruger Park. Very convenient parking and braai zone.
Spar in 5 min by car
Of course the terrace near the Crocodile river is amazing, such as big baobab tree on the territory.
Greg is a great host. Thank you, Greg!
Both Dinner and Breakfast was really nice.
The view was amazing. Looking over the crocodile river into the Kruger Park was great as that is where our holiday started.
The staff was really friendly and made you feel at home. They are very accommodating.
The house is beautiful..perfect for family or group of families consisting 8-9 people. The location os close to malelane gate of kruger..It is a good house for those who wants to visit kruger and stay outside and looking for self catering house
Seemless check in as we had stayed previously. Has all we need prior to entering Kruger National Park, ie, Freezer for meat supplies, very handy for the local Spar. Very quiet location and only 10 minutes from Malelane Gate.
Room was cozy and nice modern toilet (better than the pictures!).
Air conditioning and fridge were really useful.
The location is just amazing, you can spot many animals from the terrace, and it's just 10 min from Kruger gate
The location was excellent - we went to the Kruger National Park from there.
It was very clean.
Big shower
Excellent air conditioner
Clean bedding and towels after two night's stay

Thanks for the great take away breakfast
