Our stay at Buhala Lodge was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed by the friendly staff, who went above and beyond to make sure every detail of our visit was perfect. The lodge itself is stunning, blending comfort with the natural beauty of its surroundings. Situated right on the banks of the Crocodile River, the views were simply breathtaking! We were able to watch elephants, hippos, buffalos, crocodiles on our side of the river as well as giraffes and many more animals on the other side (the Kruger side) of the river. The rooms were spacious, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully designed to provide both luxury and a sense of connection with nature. Dining was another highlight: the meals were delicious, fresh, and full of local flavor. Each dinner felt very special, enjoyed on the terrace under the stars. What made the stay truly remarkable, though, was the service. The team at Buhala was attentive, kind, and genuinely passionate about making guests feel at home. If you’re looking for a place that combines luxury, relaxation, and the magic of the African bush, Buhala Lodge is the perfect choice. We left with lifelong memories and a deep desire to return!!

all round the food and experience was amazing. I never felt like i went hungry and not once did it seem like i needed to report an unhappy experience to the staff. Even the owner came over after the engagement and asked how it went and if the staff were successful with assisting

It was the best place I have ever been to. I did not expect such service. All the staff was very friendly. All the staff were like best friends who were constantly worried about us. There were more staff than guests in the lodge. The food was very tasty. The Internet worked reliably and we watched youtube. The Lodge area is very cozy and large. We did not think about anything and enjoyed being in this place. The safari was also great.

The accommodation is good, clean and comfortable but the real stars of Boulders Safari Lodge are their staff and service. Nothing is too much effort for them, they will go out of their way to assist. The food and atmosphere at night was also great, we ate so well, thank you!

If Booking.com would offer to give more than 10 points for super extraordinary lodges than we would give here 12 points. Kambaku River Lodge is for a stay close to the Kruger Park just perfect. We spent 5 beatiful nights with delicious breakfast, dinner and wild animals just passing in front. We recommend also to book Kambakus Safari with most experienced Kruger driver.
