An excellent value for money resort close to the Kruger national park. We stayed in the "luxury tents". A great experience and we were well taken care of. A little too far from town (Hazyview) which wasn't explained.

The proximity to the Kruger gate (15 min.), the sun-deck by the river and a friendly and helpful staff. Small pool, small rooms (the tents a great), very basic bathroom. Rooms and deck are quite worn.

Nice hotel situated just at the Kruger Park border and the Sabie river. Great views. There were 5 hippo's in the river during our 3 days stay. At the last day we saw also a group of elephants at the river. The neighbourhood is quiet so you can relax just laying on the deckchair. The staff was very helpful and kind - especially the 2 security guys who where working during the day! You will get your car cleaned every morning for free which is good after visiting the Kruger Park. To the Kruger Gate is about 19 km which is okay. Quite far away from the city (Hazyview) and normal shops - you have to drive more than 20 min to get there. The swimmingpool was quite clean but it needs a renovation. The rooms and the bathrooms could be a little better.

We loved the position of the lodge overlooking the river.Also the staff were very helpful and friendly. We booked 2 luxury river tents, but our son and his partner had to move to room with no river view because the electic was not working. This was ok but we were not offered any refund on the accomodation. I think this was wrong as the room was cheaper.

Lodge set-up and friendly staff, and value for money. To close to the road, and local spaza shop music to noisy. Accommodation / room very old. Not the venue if u're looking for a quiet and relaxing weekend.

I have booked and stayed at the lodge on numerous occasions both personally and for clients. The price/quality ratio is excellent and I will continue to send people there from our tour company. The viewing deck is outstanding.

A delightful lodge overlooking Kruger park where the staff could not have been more helpful or friendly. We stayed in a luxury tent which had lovely views overlooking the Sabie river. A very enjoyable stay. Nothing

We arrived at Sabie in the late afternoon and were greeted by friendly and happy staff yet so professional they made us feel at home and safe..The morning trip to Kruger where excellent our Guide Patrick was so knowledgeable and explained the animals and their behaviour were....the Staff at the Sabie were as well second to none ...everyone appeared to be happy to be of service , they would come and chat with us and were always around to ask if all is well ...and in addition the Manager Stuart took the time to talk us though we were checking out we felt as though indeed we will be back home to Sabie next year and will have another great time ...thank you Sabie River Bush Lodge for a relaxing and great time ....thank you yet again . The weather - was raining most of the time , but this did not change the quality and experience we had.

The lodge is situated perfectly so that you can explore the Kruger National Park and also the Panorama Route. The lodge has an own game drive vehicle and we had an amazing game drive. The pool and veranda overlooking the Sabie river are beautiful. Food is basic. My room was dark, small and situated near the kitchen which started action at 05:30. So this was my waking call. Ask for a room farther from the kitchen.

Not having enough words to express the beauty oflocation of the lodge,facing Sabie River seeing crocdiles n hippo just passing thru,the excellency in the service.Everything was just excellent. To be called by Steward in the morning of the day when preparing to leave for Sabie,starting my holiday n be told that I was given a wrong price quotation n must add R1500.That really disturbed me I even wanted to cancell.Whereas after booking I made a follow up n was guarenteed everything was fine n they were quiet up untill the day in which was suppose to check in
