I wished I had booked two nights at this beautiful place! We arrived from Graskop (we left at 9:30) and spend the day visiting the sites at the panorama route. We arrived at 18, and were leaving at 5 the next day for Kruger (20 min to the gate, we were the first ones there). Eric and Natasha were extremely welcoming and had good tips on where to go for diner etc. They have turned this place in a gem. Every thing was well thought of, from the lovely beds to the good shower, well equipped kitchen and very tasteful decoration. Natasha packed us a lovely breakfast which we enjoyed after having seen the first elephants and zebras. I would have loved to stay another day, enjoying the pool, sunset and the impalas that walk around at the grounds of the lodge. Hopefully another time!

This is a truly unforgettable destination and we highly recommend it to you. Tom, Peter and Siphwe are superb and make guests feel so welcome, they looked after us so well. We sought an authentic destination alongside Kruger and that is what we got, we were so pleased with everything. Our room was located off the front veranda, it is so peaceful with wild animals and birds coming to the site and the watering hole, it was blissful and we were so disappointed when the time to leave came. The breakfast was perfect, with top quality food served each morning. One evening we had bbq, the local town has a Woolworths and lots of other shops (everything you could need). It has a lovely rustic swimming pool which is ideal for relaxing. The rooms are spotless clean and the bathrooms spacious. They arranged our two Kruger safari days for us, they were amazing, Tingala is really near the gate to the National Park, so you can maximise your time in the park rather than travelling to it. Tom’s recommendations for sightseeing in the region were perfect, it’s a beautiful part of the world and we will never forget this experience. We sincerely hope to return one day to meet you all again and to enjoy your magical place again. If you decide to visit Tingala you will not be disappointed.

Unfortunately, due to the current extreme heavy rain, it was not possible for us to arrive as we were stuck in the storm area. The host was very polite throughout the communication and eventually even made sure we got a refund. That's what I call outstanding service! Thank you very much for that. Hopefully it will work out for the next stay in South Africa, we would be happy.

Location in the private reserve was fantastic with pool and a view to animals passing by. The two daily Game Drives were also fantastic with guides that have a high level of knowledge of all topics concerning the private reserve and animal life. We felt completely save eventhough we were very close to both lions, elephants, girafs and a lot of other animals. Food was delicious and well-prepared. Atmosphere at the bush lodge were welcoming and calm. At the bush lodge has in totale room for maximum 6 people which makes a friendly and close atmosphere. Our biggest compliments to Niel and Milly who made our 2 day stay unforgettable. We are definitely planning to come back and bring our family next time.

A hotel in the middle of the wilderness. At least once in a lifetime I recommend to switch off and go on a quality safari, to experience the peace and sounds of nature. This hotel is perfect! The service is top notch and everyone is nice. Our guide Elvys was great and we saw all the animals in 5 days. Thank you so much for a great experience, I believe I will be back.

We had a great stay at Kingly Bush Villa! The peaceful setting and beautiful views made it the perfect spot to unwind. Being so close to the Kruger Park fence, we were lucky enough to see giraffes and hippos right from the garden, which was an incredible experience. At night, the clear sky was full of stars, which made for a really special atmosphere. The villa was good value for money, and our whole family enjoyed the stay. If you're after a quiet retreat with wildlife and great stargazing, this place is a solid choice!

    The lodge is very nice and the rooms are far away enough that it is quiet, and you have your own privacy. The view is amazing as well.

    We had a lovely overnight stay. The lodges are clean and neat. We enjoyed the comfortable, king sized bed. Beautifull sun rises and sunsets in the bushveld. Natasha serves up a lovely wholesome breakfast. An all-round awesome base for those wanting to explore the Kruger. Thank you Natasha..

    I loved everything. The chalets are newly renovated, with new owners. The attention to details is impressive. The hospitality is out of this world and the owners go an extra mile for their guests. Would highly recommend and we will absolutely go again. One of the best self-catering lodges I've been to in a while.
