A truly lovely property with an unbeatable location right at the Kruger Gate, making it extremely convenient for SANParks safari pick-ups. The spa is refreshing and relaxing, offering beautiful views — a perfect way to unwind. The food exceeded expectations with a great variety, excellent quality, and delicious flavors. We also enjoyed the stunning wildlife views from the pool area, which made the experience even more special. The room was very comfortable and well-appointed. Overall, a vibrant and memorable place to stay.

Amazing place, the tents were very luxurious and spacious, more like a modern apartment. Also very clean. Staff was great and accommodating, we got walkietalkied in the morning to tell us we could see a leopard walking through the campsite which was amazing! The ranger who was there at night told us stories and a lot of information about the park/camp. He also made us feel very confident in the safety of the camp and accomodations. Would and will recommend this to everybody!

The location is incredible with an extensive view of the river. From the terrace one can see elephants, hippos and even crocodiles. The game drives twice a day are a must especially when you have a great guide like Victor. The food is also excellent. I would also like to stress out the great service of Angel and Vlak at the restaurant.

The Safaris were great, in the large concession area they go off the roads through the bush. There are several river beds. Not the focus, but the landscape is also really beautiful!

What an amazing place, to be able to stay in the middle of Kruger on a river bed, is an absolutely amazing experience! The game drives and bush walk were absolutely amazing and the guides were super knowledgeable and professional (the best safaris we had in all of Kruger). Food was really good as well and all the staff was super friendly and helpful! The glamping adds to the whole experience and then being able to dip in the pool in between game drives is surreal. Needless to say, we didn't want to leave.

    Spacious and comfortable room and lovely pool and gym facilities. Immediate access the park so great for self-drives or guided tours. The breakfast buffet was excellent but the evening buffet was pretty average, however, there are other restaurant choices within walking distance.

    Skukuza is a gem—especially if you want that mix of real bush experience without giving up comfort. It’s one of the bigger camps in Kruger, so there’s quite a bit going on, but it still manages to feel peaceful. Favourite spots: We really enjoyed the early morning drives around the park. We were self-driving but cleverly kept an eye on the guided tour operator vehicles, and that helped us catch most of the big sightings. It made the whole experience exciting and rewarding. Where we ate: We mostly self-catered but had a nice meal at the Kruger Hotel on our first evening after arriving past 7 pm. Most of our shopping was done at the Park Shop inside the camp—it was well-stocked and convenient. We even bought some game meat (like kudu and impala), which we braaied once we returned to Rixile. It was delicious and made for a real bush-style dinner. Getting around: Very easy. The camp is drivable and well signposted. If you’re self-driving (as most people are), Skukuza is a great central base for game drives, with plenty of routes and good animal sightings in every direction. Activities for groups of friends: Game drives are the highlight—we had some unforgettable ones. I'd also suggest booking a guided morning drive and, if you're feeling adventurous, trying different types of game meat like wildebeest, crocodile, or impala. It’s a fun experience to share as a group. Evenings back at camp were equally special—braaiing under the stars, swapping stories, and comparing notes on sightings. Skukuza offers just the right balance of wild and comfortable.

    I saw loads of the animals I was looking for, Giraffe, Rhino, Impala, Crocodile, Elephants Kudu, and even a couple of Lions and 2 Leopards. Saw the Wild Dogs and Buffalo. I also played golf at Skukuza Golf Club which was a bit of fun. Everyone was friendly and we always felt safe.

    Located close skukuza gate of the Kruger national park. It was value for money. Friendly staff and helpful. Missed having a kitchen portion, as it was not self catering. Really enjoyed our stay there.

    The location was incredible. Being able to see wildlife from your hotel room was so special. The rooms were beautiful and the restaurant and all the staff working at Shalati were amazing. Great food and the safari trips were magic! Nelly was a fantastic guide.
