Modern & spacious villa minutes from Kruger National Park.

Settle into our newly-renovated, modern and comfortable three bedroom unit within the confines of a secured resort and just 10 minutes from South Africa's flagship Kruger National Park (KNP). Recent renovations includes mosquito netting on all windows, brand new bathrooms and updated tiles throughout the unit.
Our free-standing, self-catering unit, in Hazyview, offers a fully equipped kitchen with spacious open plan living and dining rooms, three full bathrooms, and a large outdoor deck with braai/BBQ. Our unit is free-standing with no units on either side of us -- unlike some of the others on the property.
One en-suite bedroom has a king bed, another has two twin beds with its own bathroom while the third en-suite upstairs has two twin beds along with a bathroom. All bedrooms have air-conditioning, ceiling fans and block out curtains. Our self-catering kitchen will meet all your needs including a coffee machine, toaster, microwave, electric kettle, stove, oven and dishwasher. We also offer access to wi-fi from within our unit.
You can rest easy after cooking dinner or grilling knowing our complementary daily cleaning will wash the dishes, clean the grill and make up the beds while you are out in your morning safari.
NEW: In order to alleviate the issues around load-shedding, we have a gas stove for cooking and boiling water. We also have an inverter and battery back-up that will kick in to power the lights, fans, fridge, tv, decoder, router and most plugs. The oven, aircons, dishwasher and water heater will not be powered by the battery. In the kitchen, above the sink, there is a box with a green and red light. When both green and red lights are on means that all systems are a go and there is Eskom power. Just the red light means, stop and be careful how you use power since load-shedding is on.
Sip your favorite drink while enjoying the South African sunset over the mountains from the romantic, shaded balcony off the upstairs bedroom or enjoy the larger wooden deck while grilling in our built-in grill.
Among the resort’s many amenities are a golf course, tennis courts, a hippo hide and plenty of kids' activities. Our villa is a minute’s walk from one of the resort’s three swimming pools (not the main one so less busy) and close enough to the hippo hide to hear them grunt at night. The villa is located near three supermarkets, restaurants, pubs and shops. Only 10 minutes away, KNP’s Phabeni entrance gate is one of the few that offer guided night drives to safari enthusiasts not staying inside the game reserve.
For anyone new to self-drive safari or visiting for the first time, we offer tips and suggest detailed self-drive route inside Kruger.
The open plan living and dining rooms give the downstairs an airy feel with views of the outside and easy access to the patio via two sliding doors. A large wooden deck with built-in grill/braai is an ideal entertainment area and a lovely way to the end the day. Double covered parking is available. A nine-hole 18 Tee Gary Player designed golf course, three swimming pools, and a restaurant are also on site. All bed linens and bathroom towels are provided. The lounge offers a wide selection of DStv channels on our flat screen TV.
Guests have access to all the following amenities provided at The Kruger Park Lodge:

On-site restaurant
‘Big Five’ game drives
Bird watching
4 tennis courts
Hippo hide
Putt putt/mini-golf
Gary Player 9-hole (18 Tee) golf course and driving range

Convenient location to Kruger, comfy
No downsides. Just a short drive to Phabeni Gate. Great for bigger family. Beautiful grounds, the hippos a few steps away, lodge restaurant is very nice. Small pool very close. Toiletries provided.

We had an amazing stay and were quite sad to leave. The chalet is bright, modern and extremely comfortable. Had better sleep here than at home! Two teens enjoyed their space upstairs and could make noise well into the night without it disturbing those in the room downstairs. Incredibly light and bright, well situated close to the Kruger. The afternoon sun on the main bedroom bed is the perfect complement for any afternoon nap.. The owner was helpful and very responsive - 5 stars all round.

Superb accommodation.
Spacious house with recently renovated bathrooms and kitchen with a nice view of the town. Our stay was too short but we will definitely return. The owner was a pleasure to work with and has equipped the house with all the comforts of home. A must if you lucky enough to find this accommodation available.

Perfect place near Kruger
This place was perfect for our time at Kruger Park. At first I wondered if we would have been happier staying in one of the camps in Kruger, but after going there, we know this was the right choice. The camps in Kruger can be soooooo crowded. This house is less than 10 minutes from the Kruger gates, and our safari guide picked us up at the door to our house, and drove us right to the park for a couple of great days. This house was perfect for our party of five adults. Very clean and new and well appointed. The master bath has a tub with hand-held shower which is a little dated, but worked just fine. There is a swimming pool less than 100 yards away that almost no one else uses, so it felt very private. And the hippo hide is also just a short walk away with about a half dozen very busy hippos in the evening. Also saw Impala and monkeys on the grounds. Check in and check out was very easy, and we felt very safe and secure in this house. Highly recommend this place for a trip to Kruger and the area.

Lovely house - perfect for Kruger Park
This is our third stay at Kruger Park Lodge and our first at Swagat. The house was beautifully presented and furnished. Perfectly situated within the grounds for a short stroll to the Hippo Hide. Booking was easy and straightforward. I also liked being able to check details etc using the Home Away App. The Park facilities were the usual great standard and the staff friendly and cheerful.

location wonderful!
the location is so close to everything at Kruger! Only downside is the wifi arrangement (buying data from the front desk that then clonks out after a few hours ) really sucks. Otherwise, great place.

Merveilleux !!
Un séjour plus que parfait dans un cadre idyllique en toute sécurité. Maison tout confort spacieuse, impeccablement équipée, ménage fait tous les jours, personnel du resort disponible et aimable. Tout cela à 10 minutes du Krüger !!! De la haute prestation !! Un rapport qualité/prix imbattable. Nous conseillons vivement !

Comfortabel
Mooie, zeer ruime woning, van vele gemakken voorzien. Het park waar de woning staat is tevens een golf-resort en heeft veel amerikaanse gasten. Housekeeping komt dagelijks oa om bedden op te maken. Nadeel in huis is ontbreken van wifi. Wifi is alleen te koop bij de receptie en werkt ook alleen bij de receptie (15' lopen van huis) en dan nog matig. Entree Krugerpark is 15' met de auto, perfect dus. Het grote (uitbreidende) winkelcentrum is dichtbij, dat is fijn voor de boodschappen maar iets minder voor het uitzicht en het geluid van de weg die ervoor loopt. Een van de 3 zwembaden op het park ligt vlakbij het huis, maar was in augustus (winter) te koud om te gebruiken.
