Rixile Kruger Lodge

Absolutely stunning! The host, Clint, and his team, paid attention to every detail to make sure our family had a comfortable stay. That included setting up a travel cot and covering the pool for our toddler’s safety (we were able to remove the pool cover when we wanted to have a swim). The rooms and dining area are spacious, private and modern. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed braaing on the wood braai and fireplace. Very well located. Close to the Kruger Hotel restaurants which have lovely buffet, a la carte and drink options. Most importantly, the Paul Kruger Gate entrance to the park was close by - we were able to arrive early with ease and saw everything to see except rhinos. Will definitely be back.

Rixile Kruger Lodge is located within a secured and gated complex; it is quietly tucked behind the Kruger Gate Hotel, where visitors will have to go through a security check prior to entering. We really appreciated the serenity and safety measures put into place, to ensure that our stay was peaceful and uninterrupted. The location itself is unbeatable - just minutes away from the entrance to Kruger National Park, as well as a well-stocked supermarket within Skukuza. The unit was clean, tidy, and well designed. There was plenty of space for 2 to walk around and place our luggage. The bed was also comfortable. The highlight of our night was enjoying a braai (bonfire grill) dinner on the patio of the unit. Clint, our host, kindly prepared all the necessary fire starter, kitchen utensils, as well as salt and pepper, that would be required for the braai. Overall, Rixile is top notch and a well recommended option compared to other properties within its price range!
