Elephant Walk Retreat

Welcome to Elephant Walk Retreat. We offer self-catering accommodation just outside the Crocodile Bridge Entrance gate to the Kruger National Park. Set on a tranquil estate at the Crocodile Bridge entrance to the Kruger National Park, no more than 50 meters from the gate, one could not hope to find a more suitable base from which to explore the wonders of the southern Kruger National park! A comfortable five-hour drive from Johannesburg, Elephant Walk is the perfect "stopover" on route to Mozambique, or as a destination. This superb little retreat caters for the discerning tourist and business traveler. Elephant Walk is a privately owned lodge, with an ambience of tranquility. Getaway from the hustle and bustle of every day city life

A beautiful gem of a place, in the most fantastic location, right on Kruger's doorstep!

Reviewed By Joanne B

Stayed at Elephant Walk Retreat in March 22 and we were wowed from the moment we arrived. Fantastic location right at the entrance to Kruger, you can´t get any closer! Amazing views of the river where we were lucky enough to have 2 visiting elephants just as we arrived. There is a beautiful swimming pool for you to relax in after a long day in Kruger or even spend the day beside if you fancy having a relaxing day out of the park. Great self catering facilities just a short drive from town where you can stock up on supplies or eat in one of the local restaurants. If you want good priced accommodation with excellent facilities very close to Kruger this should be your no1 choice! Thank you for a great stay and hope to come back again soon!

Excellent experience once again for the umpteenth time but first in own unit. Game viewed from river frontage unit not as plentiful as previous years but still rewarding. Will return again in 2023 for another stay..

So much better than the Kruger Park camps

Reviewed By jf278888

This lodge is perfect if you want to go to Kruger Park. Crocodile river gate and its great game viewing spots are very close. Compared to the camps inside the park this is pure luxury. Pool, air-conditioned rooms, great beds, a small bar and the hosts Sue and Martyn. It was a real pleasure being their guests, they helped with everything we wanted and gave hints on where to go in the park. Breakfast and dinner were very good also. Summary: You want to be at Trees Too rather than a Kruger camp.

Wonderful hospitality

Reviewed By Anon_Durban

A group of colleagues and I recently stayed at Acasia for three nights, as we always try to do when on business in Komatipoort. As always, Anne-marie's hospitality and her wonderful staff made us feel very welcome and at home. She organised an amazing braai (barbecue) for us and our guests (33 of us!). Given the pandemic, it was the first time in two years that'd we'd had an opportunity to gather - so memorable.

Komati River Chalets

Komati River Chalets is nestled on the confluence of the Komati and Crocodile Rivers in the Southern Kruger Park region of Mpumalanga’s wild frontier. Situated on 12 acres of Komati river front wilderness ensures that this is one of the regions premier country estates. The famous Kruger National Park, Crocodile bridge gate is a mere 12km from the lodge and the sweet veld grasses of the South Eastern Kruger National Park ensure that this is arguably the best game viewing area of the entire park as vast herds of plains game and predators alike are attracted to the spoils of this pristine area. Both Mozambique and Swaziland are but a stone throw from Komati River Chalets providing the perfect base from which to explore both exotic destinations. Set above the flood plain of the Komati River, the restaurant, bar and pool facilities, and the individual chalets are no more than fifty meters from the water’s edge where pods of hippos and an array of spectacular bird life will entertain for hours on end. The attention to detail and hands on management style of this family owned property ensure that Komati River Chalets is the ideal destination for the adventurous traveller.

Reviewed By Shaugn O

Great stay, well maintained rooms and grounds, load shedding by Eskom no problem due to very efficient generator, close to the wonderful golf course which suits me. Problem is trucks going to border post that block the entrance to the access road to the chalets in the evening. Police had to assist us getting through.

Missed opportunity

Reviewed By 410Why

The Orchards Farm Cottages need some serious upgrading and maintenance. There is such a good opportunity to make the place better. Not suitable for a group of friends/family - no communal space that can be used to gather. The space offered to have a gathering is attached to the main house. Linda and her family are very good hosts and try to make everything as comfortable as possible.

Great food great staff

Reviewed By Bertb0104

This was our second visit, using the hotel as a base for visiting the Kruger Park - the Crocodile Bridge gate is about 10 minutes away. The rooms are spacious and very well laid out, and the staff are welcoming and efficient. The restaurant is excellent, a great range of food all well presented and cooked superbly - compliments to John the chef, top job! The billing includes breakfast, and the staff went out of their way to provide us with packed breakfasts and lunches for our early morning trips to Kruger. Highly recommended, exceptional value for money
