We celebrated our 20th anniversary with a short stay at the lodge. The staff service was on point, place was clean and beautiful. Animals were showing off perfectly and we... read more ere lucky enough to have encountered the big 5 all before 08h00 in the morning. Food was delicious too! Thank you so much.

  We loved our couple of days at Kambaku. Each room has a perfect view over the river into Kruger. Everything works well and is thoroughly thought out. Little... read more touches are thrown in everywhere. The staff are long-term, always a good sign. There's no dining room as such for the delicious breakfast and dinner - you eat outside your room and watch the wildlife (There are birds everywhere).
We did a game drive with Elvis....and he's determined to give you a good return for your money as best he can.

  Kambaku River Lodge was exactly what we were looking for as part of our plan to explore Kruger National Park while in South Africa. Accommodation: The rooms were spacious... read more and had everything you needed to rest up for an early morning game drive and seek refuge from the midday heat. Food: Our group had meals included in our package and it did not disappoint. The food was freshly prepared and delicious. When you ask for breakfast to be served at 9am it comes at 9am. Staff: The staff ensured that we had a phenomenal stay. It was easy to communicate before our arrival, and we were able to get our game drives sorted out well in advance through Kambaku River Lodge and Sanparks which just made life so much easier. Game Drives: Elvis was the lead ranger on our game drive, and he delivered a top-notch experience. We saw all the big 5 and received all sorts of knowledge about animals that we did not know about. Elvis was constantly in touch with the other rangers in Kruger to ensure we were able to experience the best that Kruger had to offer. THANK YOU ELVIS! Location: The lodge is ideally situated on the Crocodile River where you were able to look into KNP. We saw some incredible sightings from the small viewing deck that was 100 meters from our front patio. You can whip out the binos and see elephants...

We saw some incredible sightings from the small viewing deck that was 100 meters from our front patio. You can whip out the binos and see elephants playing in the river, hippos bellowing, and the infamous fish eagle cry. An easy commute from Nelspruit airport and an easy trek back to Jo'Burg (4 hours) if you need to fly back home abroad.

Leeane and the team will ensure you have an incredible stay during your time at Kambaku River Lodge. Thank you again for an incredible experience! More

  We had a great 2-Night-Stay at Kambaku. Anzelle and her collegues have done a great job. Booking the dinner is worth it and easy. Served on your own terrace with... read more a fire. Made also the 7 hour Safari to Kruger with Elvis which was great.

  The establishment was neat and appealing. The staff was very helpful and professional. We felt like we were home and the food, especially dinner was delicious. I would definitely recommend... read more Kambaku River Lodge to my friends.

  My husband and I spent 3 nights in Kambaku River Lodge, and we had a wonderful time.
The staff is very kind and welcoming.
A special thank you to Martha... read more who is an amazing cook, to Anzelle who coordinated all our safaris, and to Elvis with whom we did our morning safari and saw the Big Five!
Because the hotel is located alongside the Kruger National Park, we even saw animals from our hotel room (hippos and warthogs), and Leanne kindly texted us when the giraffes came out!
A truly unforgettable experience.
