Breathtaking

Very beautiful place to stay. Just very Hard to find as the GPS will not take you there. The Road to get there also not very pleasant(Dirt Road) but once you there it is breathtaking... Did not have a SUV or BIG card so for Low cars not very pleasant

Die lodge liegt mitten im Busch, erreichbar nach einer Anfahrt über eine 9km lange unbefestigte Straße. Dort auch zu essen also unbedingt zu empfehlen. Das Essen war von sehr guter Qualität, die Zimmer sauber und schön und die Lage absolut traumhaft. Eben eine bush lodge.

Retraite sauvage agreable et accueillante

Cette Guest house est tres agreable et confortable. On se sent vite chez soi. Elle est situee en plein brousse, mais seulement a un vingtaine de minutes de Neslpruit et a 45 Minutes du Park Kruger. Pour ceux qui aiment les paysages et les marches dans la brousse, cette adresse est parfaite. On y mange tres bien. Le rapport qualite prix est excellent, je recommande.

a break away from a city life.

The place is comfortable.I enjoyed the sweet melody of birds singing outside my window. The tranquil atmosphere and the friendly stuff made us feel at home. Meals were good and the rooms are huge; thanks for the bees- we were given a family room. The only problem is the gravel road after we took the off ramp from N4 ,it took us long to reach there because we were travelling at about 20-35 km/h in a sedan.The staff is friendly.

Ein Traum von einem Haus mit wunderschönen Zimmern

Luxus pur! Super eingerichtete Zimmer, unseres hatte sogar einen Jacuzzi. Schöne Terrasse mit Blick auf die umliegenden "Berge". Man hat die Möglichkeit seine Mahlzeiten an verschiedenen Orten einzunehmen (Esszimmer, Wintergarten mit Feuerstelle, Terrasse am Pool oder auf einer Art Freisitz mit tollem Ausblick. Wir haben uns wegen der etwas frischen Nächte für den offenen Wintergarten entschieden. Das Essen war fantastisch.

"Peace" of Heaven

This is a lovely place to get away. It is in the bush so it is admittedly very far from everything. The closest gate to Kruger National Park is around a 40 minute drive. Having said that it is set in a nature conservancy with some wild animals around as well. It is an eco lodge and soun proofing is poor so expect that as well when you book. It maybe best to book the lodge out so as to be able to truly use the stunning communal areas and not feel like a naughty child trying to whisper. The service at the lodge was excellent and made up a considerable way to the poor booking experience between the lodge and hotels.com as well as poor post payment concerns.

Un po' difficile da trovare (usate se potete le coordinate del satellitare), ma ne vale assolutamente la pena. Siamo andati per una notte di transito e abbiamo deciso di stare un'altra notte per la bellezza del posto e la gentilezza dei gestori.

Eco Eden Bush Lodge - A Wonderful Place

Our stay at Eco Eden Bush Lodge was a truly brilliant experience. The friendly reception and the small number of rooms made us feel like private guests and we were soon on first names with our hosts. The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated and the setting far from the main road is enthralling. We spent a fantastic evening having a traditional South African potjie dinner on the deck in the back end of the garden, surrounded by all the sounds and smells of the African bush and with the starlit sky above. Breakfast in the morning was varied and delicious. The memory of our stay will be cherished for a long time and hopefully we will have the opportunity to come back another time soon.
