    An absolutely stunning stay! 🌿 The property is incredibly spacious and set right in the middle of the jungle, offering a serene and peaceful atmosphere. The kitchen is superbly equipped with every utensil you could possibly need, making it perfect for cooking. Beautifully decorated interiors add to the charm — every corner feels warm and inviting. Highly recommended for a nature-filled getaway!

    I think we went in a quiet time so the Boma restaurant food wasn't great but I can imagine it will be lovely once the property is further developed and busier

    Our stay was really lovely. Very close to Paul Kruger gate and good safe road. Accommodation was faultless and very clean. Will definitely visit again!

    Nothing. It was perfect.

    A beautiful home with all the luxuries you could hope for. Heated pool, sunny terrace, private boma and well-kitted kitchen. The bedrooms, outside shower and relaxing bath felt like a personal hotel suite within the home. Also the excellent service (from the reception to the daily cleaning staff) deserve a special mention. We loved our stay.

    We understand ot is a self catering accommodation. However, the tea station ingredients were not sufficient. If we knew we could have brought our own. It would be nice if you could consider serving some rusks or biscuit. 😊

    The ambience and the location is excellent. Very quiet and relaxing. The houses are so well decorated and very clean. There is everything a family needs to have a comfortable holiday. Very convenient. My kids want to visit again soon. 😍 The staff responded well when my daughter had a medical emergency. We were guided well. I was also moved by the fact that the staff who responded via WhatsApp message also wanted us to update of my daughter got help and if evey thing is fine. The staff is so caring and loving. ❤️

    The Mobile Spa the property uses was very disappointing. It was a total rip-off because it was overpriced for the quality of service offered.

    Great Location close to the Kruger Park main gate. Awesome facilities, including heated pool and gym on the property. The staff was very helpful and always willing to assist. Very efficient.

    Ventilation especially while cooking. Cannot leave doors open because of monkeys. Perhaps have a window with a monkey proof cover in order to open it. Or an extractor fan?

    Attention to detail...inside and outside. Comfy beds.lovely outdoor area.Spacious. Good view of the river with animals . Kitchen had ample stock of dishes and appliances.

    On Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, the staff were cutting the grass along the fence with weed eaters and making a lot of noise. This was followed by staff working with leaf blowers. This was very annoying and spoiled the peace and quiet of the bush for us. It took a long time, with multiple calls to reception, to get them to stop. The maintenance manager made a bad choice of timing to get this work done.

    Apart from the noise from the maintenance department, this property was absolutely wonderful!

    There was no river view due to dense foliage. However, this was easily overcome by a short safe walk to the Boma where the coffee and viewing was excellent.

    Bush solitude, privacy with modern comforts. Game drives booked through Elephant Point were on time, pleasant and knowledgeable guides, good quality vehicles.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! I think a stay in any of the lodges at Elephant point would not disappoint. We spent a few days at Mpfuvu lodge, it had everything you might need for your time there. The kitchen was well equipped and the aircons helped keep you cool on the warm summer nights. The view from the patio was amazing and you had a choice of braai’ing/bbq fire pit, gas or Weber outside. The house was spotlessly clean and the housekeeper Lynette was very kind and helpful. The staff with Legacy/Elephant point also went over and above with helping us find a doctor for my sick grandmother.

    Expected all appliances to work - coffee machine was reported as not working and wasn't replaced. Restaurant service was very poor - meal was over an hour late; which is not great when you traveling with children. Bathroom amenity addition such as toilet spray gun would have been useful. Maybe also add an airfryer to the kitchen appliance list.

    Beautiful home with loads of space. Extremely peaceful location with animals visiting daily at your doorstep. Close to many activities.
