Get friendly with the flora and fauna and spend the day at Numbi Gate located 26.3 mi (42.3 km) from central Mbombela. If you like Numbi Gate, you'll love Phabeni Gate, just a short drive away.
Simbavati Hilltop is top notch! From the 9 times per day (yes, that is NINE times) that you are fed, to the staff, game drives, views and rooms! Not only do you have your own plunge pool overlooking the river, but there is also a shared, larger pool. There is also a daybed at the room, outdoor shower, fully stocked complimentary mini bar and very comfortable bed!
We saw hippo and elephant from our room. On game drives, lions feasting on a giraffe, hyena and wild dogs interacting, 2...

Mhlati Guest Cottages was amazing. Jeremy was awesome, Helping is with car trouble and providing us with recommendations for dinner. Breakfast was fantastic and cooked to order. Mhlati guest cottage was…..wow and so close to Kruger gate. Felt safe as we walked around the neighborhood without any concerns. I will definitely stay here again when I return.

The Dusk to Dawn Farm Guesthouse is “outstanding!” We were surprised to be given an upgrade, and the cottage was absolutely stunning. It had a downstairs with kitchen, living room and tv, bedroom and large bathroom. The upstairs had a living room, bedroom and bathroom. Both had breathtaking views of the farm. The cottages are nicely decorated and quite cozy and comfortable. We enjoyed all the farm animals (cows, ducks, chickens, pigs, donkeys, etc.), as well as the wildlife. There were swing...

Everything was as pictured. Glamping tents were good. Animals did roam the grounds. Always felt safe though. And most importantly the safari drives were amazing! If you are lucky you will get Vestment - he was the absolute best!!! Definitely recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two night stay with Honeyguide Tented Safari Camp. We had four amazing game drives guided by the very knowledgeable Anton and our tracker, Johnson. They, and the rest of the staff, really made an effort to take care of our comfort and questions. They even found olives for my martini in the bush!!! We had wonderful close encounters with four of the "big five" including a couple of elephants drinking from the plunge pool near where we had lunch. The platform tents were...

Amazing experience - memories for a lifetime for our daughter & 13 yr old granddaughter! Lots of baby animals to see in July. Very comfortable tent accommodations, attentive staff, plentiful variety of interesting tasty food, knowledgeable guides for birds and animals and worth the pricey cost. Remember to plan for tips with a well staffed safari camp. What a great experience!

Property staff Michael & Joyce was amazing. Service was excellent. We had dinner at the hotel on our first night which was outstanding.
The only issues we had was that we booked breakfast included rate only to be told by the hotel that our booking does not include breakfast. We booked a superior room with a bath due to the fact that I had a back op, the images and information on the website showed the superior room with a bath and shower. We were told the superior room comes without a bath....

My family and I stayed in one of the two-bedroom chalets. The property was clean and well maintained. Dining at the resort restaurant was good and reasonably priced. Overall a very comfortable night's stay.
