“Fantastic stay!”

Our time at Simbavati Hilltop Lodge was outstanding! The staff was exceptionally polite, and our guide and tracker worked tirelessly to show us as much as they could while providing detailed information. The butler was sweet and attentive, accommodating to our food restrictions. Our room was consistently spotless and cozy. We had a wonderful time and would love to come back!

“Incredible resort”

Everything, the service and the resort is perfect

“You can’t go wrong by booking this safari.”

Lovely staff, amazing setting, lots of animals right in front of property. Rooms were very comfortable and the level of attention to service was excellent. Guides were awesome.

“Room/View amazing. Exceptional food quality and service. Game drives superb. Definitely recommend”

Breakfast was very good. There was a standard menu and a daily special. The food quality was very good and the service exceptional. There was both hot and cold options (or both if you were still hungry). I loved the poached egg and spinach on toast (daily special)

“One of the best trips and experience of my life”

The staff were all superlative

“Perfection! A magical safari experience”

Everything! This place is phenomenal: from the beautiful lodge, to the people, delicious food and knowedgeable + fun safari crew. Could not recommend it more.

“We felt special from the moment we arrived. Nothing was too much trouble. And we saw the Big Five in our first 2 game dr”

Everything! The location and fabulous views, the roomy and very private tents, the exceptional attentive and friendly staff, the food and of course the wonderful wildlife.

No sleep due to hippos😆😆😆😭

“Great place to spend some quality time”

The Food was awesome. The Guides are the best I have ever had. Knowledgeable. Polite. Experts in their field. Just brilliant. Even my better half got to love the Safari due to the fabulous guides. All in all we are very happy and loved our stay.

great staff, beautiful location

“Great stay but there’s room for improvement”

cosy, friendly staff.

“Loved everything. Will definitely recommend to friends”

Location was beautiful. Stunning views. All our meals were first class. Game drives exceptional with wonderful guides. Saw so much

We came here for the safari and it didn’t disappoint. We had six amazing game drives with Themba and Golden - absolute legends - where we saw plenty of animals from Leopard to Rhinos and everything in between. We had Aubrey to look after us throughout our stay - again, legend - and basically all staff there from management to housekeeping were just so amazingly kind and helpful. The 10-rating is without a doubt because of them.

A beautiful lodge with informative guides and friendly staff. I highly recommend staying here.

The Simbavati Hilltop Lodge is a very special location. Since the first minute we felt in love with this beautiful place within the Kruger Nationalpark. Welcomed by Brad, Caroline and the team directly let us felt at home. Our Lodge had a view into the wild. Lying on the day bed on the balcony was so relaxing. And we even could spot Giraffes and other wildlife. The Lodge itself was equipped with everything that is needed. Also the bathroom with the tube with a view and the outdoor shower was so special. Daniel was taking care of us during breakfast, lunch and dinner. By the way: the meals are incredible and Daniel is also a good bar tender. Always good for a joke. Rudolf and Thabo, our Game Drive driver and tracker, where incredible. They tried to fullfill all the wishes and yes, we saw the Big 5. Rudolf explained a lot about the animals and answered every question. Thanks again to the Simbavati Hilltop Lodge team for this "Once in a lifetime" experience.

Simbavati is a magnificent place. So quiet, scenic and luxurious. Brett and the team are an amazing bunch and took care of us as guests so well. We received the same hospitality that was afforded to international tourists which is refreshing. The tents are clean, comfortable and the outside shower is wonderful. The deck with private daybed overlooking the dam is so peaceful and relaxing. The food is tasty and personal service is attentive. The game drives we had with Josia and Derreck were undoubtedly the best safari experience we've had. We saw the big 5, and much more. As an overall package, the experience was well worth it and exceeded our expectations.
