About this house rental

Settle into our newly-renovated, modern and comfortable three bedroom unit within the confines of a secured resort and just 10 minutes from South Africa's flagship Kruger National Park (KNP). Recent renovations includes mosquito netting on all windows, brand new bathrooms and updated tiles throughout the unit.
Our free-standing, self-catering unit, in Hazyview, offers a fully equipped kitchen with spacious open plan living and dining rooms, three full bathrooms, and a large outdoor deck with braai/BBQ. Our unit is free-standing with no units on either side of us -- unlike some of the others on the property.
One en-suite bedroom has a king bed, another has two twin beds with its own bathroom while the third en-suite upstairs has two twin beds along with a bathroom. All bedrooms have air-conditioning, ceiling fans and block out curtains. Our self-catering kitchen will meet all your needs including a coffee machine, toaster, microwave, electric kettle, stove, oven and dishwasher. We also offer access to wi-fi from within our unit.
You can rest easy after cooking dinner or grilling knowing our complementary daily cleaning will wash the dishes, clean the grill and make up the beds while you are out in your morning safari.
NEW: In order to alleviate the issues around load-shedding, we have a gas stove for cooking and boiling water. We also have an inverter and battery back-up that will kick in to power the lights, fans, fridge, tv, decoder, router and most plugs. The oven, aircons, dishwasher and water heater will not be powered by the battery. In the kitchen, above the sink, there is a box with a green and red light. When both green and red lights are on means that all systems are a go and there is Eskom power. Just the red light means, stop and be careful how you use power since load-shedding is on.
Sip your favorite drink while enjoying the South African sunset over the mountains from the romantic, shaded balcony off the upstairs bedroom or enjoy the larger wooden deck while grilling in our built-in grill.
Among the resort’s many amenities are a golf course, tennis courts, a hippo hide and plenty of kids' activities. Our villa is a minute’s walk from one of the resort’s three swimming pools (not the main one so less busy) and close enough to the hippo hide to hear them grunt at night. The villa is located near three supermarkets, restaurants, pubs and shops. Only 10 minutes away, KNP’s Phabeni entrance gate is one of the few that offer guided night drives to safari enthusiasts not staying inside the game reserve.
For anyone new to self-drive safari or visiting for the first time, we offer tips and suggest detailed self-drive route inside Kruger.
The open plan living and dining rooms give the downstairs an airy feel with views of the outside and easy access to the patio via two sliding doors. A large wooden deck with built-in grill/braai is an ideal entertainment area and a lovely way to the end the day. Double covered parking is available. A nine-hole 18 Tee Gary Player designed golf course, three swimming pools, and a restaurant are also on site. All bed linens and bathroom towels are provided. The lounge offers a wide selection of DStv channels on our flat screen TV.

We had an amazing stay and were quite sad to leave. The chalet is bright, modern and extremely comfortable. Had better sleep here than at home! Two teens enjoyed their space upstairs and could make noise well into the night without it disturbing those in the room downstairs. Incredibly light and bright, well situated close to the Kruger. The afternoon sun on the main bedroom bed is the perfect complement for any afternoon nap.. The owner was helpful and very responsive - 5 stars all round.

Wonderful Getaway!
Wonderful Getaway!
We were very impressed with the cleanliness and decor of this unit. The layout worked well for 2 families with children. And enough parking for 3 vehicles. The unit had a well-equipped kitchen, and plenty of linens. Beautiful resort property with lots of amenities, and in close proximity to shops, restaurants, and 2 Kruger gates. We will definitely stay here again!

It was ideally situated being 10k from the Phabeni gate, as we were primarily focused on visiting the Kruger Park. There are malls very close by so there is no need to buy before hand. The house was well appointed, fully serviced and we really did not need for anything. There is an excellent restaurant on the property with a wide variety catering for all ones needs. It was also ideally situated for exploring the surrounding area and a 'must' visit would be to Harrie's pancakes in Graskop which is a lovely drive through the forests. We were very impressed with the entire experience and would not hesitate to return

Wonderful place near Kruger National Park
Wonderful place near Kruger National Park
We have spent a wonderful week at Swagat at Kruger Park Lodge. Swagat is reflecting the circle of life of the african nature. Kruger Park Lodge is very close to Phabeni Gate, one of the entrance to the famous Kruger National Park. You will receive this gate in only 8-10 minutes. Other Highlights like God´s window, Bourke Luke Potholes, Three Rondavells, Pilgrims Rest etc. are not fare away. The support of the owner during the booking process was fantastic. We have been updated all the time with the best instructions for our arrival from Johannesburg Or Tombo Internatinal Airport to Hazyview. We are proud to be your guests, thank´s for all Heeten. Best regards Ralf

The house is very comfortable. It is spacious and very well equipped and had just undergone renovations and was impeccable. It is located in a beautifully landscaped subdivision, with many pools, a lake and a golf course, and is very close to the entrance to Kruger National Park (Phabeni gate).

Superb accommodation.
Superb accommodation.
Spacious house with recently renovated bathrooms and kitchen with a nice view of the town. Our stay was too short but we will definitely return. The owner was a pleasure to work with and has equipped the house with all the comforts of home. A must if you lucky enough to find this accommodation available.
