Mbizi Bush Lodge's spacious air-conditioned chalets have a private entrance and a view over the bush from private verandas. From your double bed, you will enjoy the sounds from the bush, birds singing in the morning and lions and hyenas calling in the night.

In Room Facilities:

The chalets feature en-suite bathrooms with separate toilet, a shower and free toiletries that are replenished daily.

The rooms are decorated in contemporary African stile. In your room, you will find complimentary tea and coffee, facilities for early morning coffee and a minibar for sun-downers on your private veranda.

All chalets are nonsmoking. The 42m² chalet also features overhead fan, safe, wardrobe and hair dryer.

Area Information:

Mbizi Bush Lodge is situated perfectly for a day trip to the famous Kruger National Park, just 25 km from the Kruger Phalaborwa Gate. Kruger National Park offers an excellent opportunity to watch a variety of African bird- and wildlife.

Watch the sun rise over the African bush from a hot air balloon. This is an early morning experience, where you will see the animals from the air as they awake. You will be awarded certificates after the tour, and as balloonist tradition tells, the landing will be celebrated with a glass of champagne.

Sleep out under the stars.

After an evening drive in an open game watching vehicle in Grietjie PNR, a barbeque or braai as they say in South Africa will be prepared. Then the sleeping bags are rolled out and you spend the night under the stars. The following morning there will be a game walk in the area. Breakfast will be served at Mbizi. It is expected that you participate in the practical work on the trip, such as preparing the dinner and be on watch for an hour during the night.
The Hans Merensky Golf Estate offers a beautiful 18 holes, par 72 golf course. You can meet giraffes, monkeys and impalas on the fairway. A very special golf experience.
This is an early morning activity, you will leave Mbizi around 5 o'clock to join the morning walk in the Tshukudu game reserve where young lions or cheetahs will follow you closely.
Brunch will be served at Tshukudu after the walk.

* Moholoholo

Moholoholo is a rehabilitation centre for wild animals that have either been abandoned, injured or poisoned. Among others, you will meet lions, leopards, eagles and vultures at the centre.

* Panorama Route

We stayed at Mbizi Bush Lodge during Christmas and can highly recommend it. The chalets are very comfortable, the amazing dinners are served by the friendly hosts on the deck with a view of the waterhole. Really enjoyed the pool which is a good spot for some bird watching.

Superb. 5 out of 5

We had an excellent stay at the Mbizi Lodge. The rooms were impeccable, elegantly decorated and yet cozy, well furnished with all amenities we need for a comfortable stay. Carefully remodeled on an ancient farm, the main house has a pleasant porch and an open dining room with a great view to the lowveld (and to the Drakenberg mountains in the background). The sunset at the pool under a marula tree gives you an ultimate African experience!

Directly linked to the Kruger NP and bordering the Oliphant river, the reserve is offers great opportunities wildlife viewing. We were met by a pack of jackals at our arrival. We saw elephants, giraffes, kudus, waterbucks and impalas, and that from the comfort of our breakfast table!

The hosts (Michael and Mette) are very attentive, knowledgeable about the surrounding region and more than happy to make your stay as pleasant as possible. The food was superb! Mette is a world-class chef, and wondering about the dinner menu became a pastime during the game drives!

So, if you are looking for an extraordinary off-the-beaten-track exclusive way to experience the Kruger National Park and surroundings, treat yourself to a stay at Mbizi Lodge.

Superb. 5 out of 5
