"My daughter and I arrived late we were met by the host who is so pleasant. He provided loads of information. We also had a few calls during the day checking on our progress - I was travelling with my infant grandson which took a lot longer than expected.
The venue is stunning and we were gr..."
"We enjoyed it very much. Everything was clean and nice. Wish we could have stayed longer."
"This place is a find. The room was much more spacious and with better facilities than anything available within Kruger Park itself (excluding the donor houses of course). It's a stone's throw from the Crocodile Bridge gate where there is a fast track system for entry so getting in and out of the par..."
more"Elephant Walk is not fancy but is quite cheap. Its close proximity to Crocodile Bridge (300m) makes it super convenient.
The unit we used (three beds) had an en-suite bathroom and a small communal kitchen. We also had an air-con which is a big plus point."
"My family and I had a fantastic stay at the retreat. Mike helped with directions to the retreat and shortcuts, missing roadworks. The accommodation was very pleasant, clean and neat. Awesome view overlooking the Kruger Park.
Will definitely be going back for some pleasant R&R."
"Very convenient for access to the park. The place needs a bit of maintenance work done but otherwise great stay was had by all."
"The chalet we were in would benefit from a bit of modernisation. Not luxurious but adequate. What you really pay for is proximity to the crocodile bridge gate which is across the bridge."
"It is nice to came home and have aircons in rooms thanks."
"Most convenient for Kruger Park entry. Lovely views of the park and Crocodile River. Wonderful night sounds. Grounds a little unkempt. Accommodation comfortable, but a few problems like a fan that couldn't turn off and no key for the fridge door which was on the verandah and we were concerned abou..."
more"We enjoyed the wonderful view and privacy of the chalet. Very convenient to Crocodile Bridge gates. Lovely, rustic dŽcor, yet very comfortable and well equipped. We were very glad we opted for the two-bed, two-bath unit with air-conditioning in both rooms - at 36 degrees, this was most welcome!"
"I had the most amazing stay at Elephant Walk. You would be crazy not to stay here! The lodge shares a fence with the Kruger Game Park so at night you can hear all the animals and during the day you can see them from your balcony. The lodge was clean and town isn't far away. Mike and Stephanie are ..."
more"Very nice. Can suggest chopping the trees a bit lower in front of unit 3 as the view is a bit limited."
"Highly enjoyable and would recommend
the accommodation and the spectacular view from the balcony. Thank you for an enjoyable stay."
"What a scene! We were welcomed by a true African sunset at Elephant Walk Retreat. It's not often that you find affordable accommodation and get to see two of the Big 5 while having breakfast on your private deck overlooking the river. The service was friendly and the facilities clean and truly South..."
more"This is the most gorgeous place right at the entrance to Crocodile Bridge. The views from our accommodation were fabulous. We could watch elephants, rhinos, giraffe, hippos, etc. Magic. Highly recommended."
"Mike is a fantastic host, just as the stay for the long weekend. Will definitely visit again in the near future. The view and accommodation was fantastic. The booking process were made so easy. Thanks for a lovely weekend break."
"We enjoyed the stay. Quiet, peaceful and near the National Park."
"Elephant walk is ideally located. You could not hope for a closer location if not staying in the park. The units was very well equipped, with everything a guest could need, neat and clean with very friendly and helpful staff. We will go back for sure."
"The Elephant Walk Retreat was an amazing experience. Friendly and helpful staff. What a great place to stay for a visit to the Kruger Park. Very clean and tidy. Met all our needs and more."
"We very much loved the spaced and nicely decorated accommodation, especially the kingsize bed and we enjoid the nice and wide views. The personnel was very friendly"
"The stay was very nice. The rooms were very comfortable and a lot nicer than it seems on the internet. Lovely view of the river.
We really enjoyed our stay and had a lovely relaxing time."
"The lodge's location is great, the sightseeing beautiful, the chalet was perfect and the pool was a blessing on a very hot day! I would definitely recommend this place, "
"Cabin was great location (overlooking river and right outside entrance to Kruger). The only thing we would point out is lack of in-room kitchen (it was in a separate open-air building shared by a couple of cabins and not incredibly well stocked). But otherwise, it was a great place to stay for Kru..."
more"The position of the lodge is excellent and allowed easy access to a very busy Croc river gate. Michael and his wife were excellent in ensuring we had early entrance and were very hospitable. The view from the chalets is fantastic and my whole family loved the stay!"
" - we will be back in the future"
" IMVUBU Log Cabin Bungalow No.4 with great river view!
The bungalow was spacious with big verandah to braai and sit, our impressions we had at Kruger were stunning....
Will consider to come back..."
"My stay at The Elephant Walk retreat was Great, the hospitality and the serenity of the lodge and our hosts was truly welcoming.
The view of the Kruger National Park from the lodge is amazing.

"Basic accomodation, located in great surroundings; very close to kruger park; all in one a very good place to stay!"
"We love the location."
"Excellent"
"Plain and basic but we were not expecting luxury. Its location is its main feature being so close to the Kruger gate. Cooking facilities and crockery were very basic and rustic although we didn't use it much."
"It was great, we couldn't have gone to a better place. Good value for money and great hosts as well. I'll be going back as soon as possible"
"Elephant Walk is a great place from which to launch your exploration of Kruger and the surrounding area. The huts are beautiful and reasonably priced. Elephants are right outside your door!"
"Thank you for a calm and relaxing stay. The views are spectacular and accomodation is very comfortable. We will definitely be back.
The queues into the park are the only set back."
"I must say what a great holiday we had. Next time we will only try and book in the summer as we only had two great days of the whole week, we will be back soon!!!!"
"Thanks for a wonderfull stay - the unit and grounds was so neat and we enjoyed our stay tremendously!"
"Please know that we have enjoyed Elephant Walk very much.
Every afternoon we enjoy watching the animals when they come to drink water. Mike at the Elephant Walk was so kind to us.
Thank you.

"I did enjoy the place. It was very good."
"I won't stay in the budget boma again (rather poor conditions), but would stay in the other houses/chalets any time. Perfectly situated!"
"My first time in South Africa. I spent 4 days in the Elephant Walk Retreat. I had a wonderful lodge with a very nice view. The breakfast and dinner was wonderful. Thank You Dominique. The game drives with Mike and Stephanie were really impressive. I can really refer this place, the people are warm ..."

"Mike and Stephanie are very nice and helpful. Lodges location can't get any better for anyone who is planning to stay outside the park. look for their new dinning area overlooking the river."

Mike, the owner and manager, treated us like a king and queen! Full-day safari drive was excellent! Dinners and breakfasts were absolutely delicious! The experience could not have been better!"
"We enjoyed our stay and appreciated the very good service of the hosts. "
"The resort is a value for money resort, although the utensils and fittings could do with an upgrade. The viewing deck is a welcome addition to the resort."
"The description says it all. What a great experience. Would recommend this place to anybody."

Everything I needed was there. The place was spotlessly clean. I liked the lodge type cabin style. It was very unique ..."

I have never been this close to nature and loved every second of it and my whole family loved it. The lady Esmeralda was so helpful and friendly.
Woooow thank you so much Elephant Walk Retreat.

"The chalet was very warm and accommodating, we could view some of the wild animals like springbok, baboons from our windows. The caretakers made sure that our place spotless, upon our arrival we had a welcoming check in with information on how to enjoy ourselves.
The place was immaculate."
"We stayed 2 nights in Inkombe luxury 4 which is one of the chalets located just next the fence that looks out of the river, from where you can see animals. The chalet is made of a big room with a big double bed very comfortable. There is also a folding bed, there is an another double bed which our s..."
more"It's definitely a very good place to stay if you have plans linked with Krocodile gate. The location is perfect as it's just across a river forming a boundary between the game and resort. We even witnessed herd of elephants the night we checked in, just across the security fence.

"We had a lovely stay. The rooms were well equipped for our stay. We would recommend to others."
"Great base for touring the Kruger from Crocodile Bridge Gate.
Good sized clean room with large bed. Great shower with lots of hot water."
"We recently spent 2 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The chalet was comfortable and more than adequate, but the highlight was sitting on the viewing deck with a herd of elephants about 30m away in the reeds below. We also saw a huge buffalo on the sandbank trying to get comfortable for the ..."

Thanks for all
Family rodor"
"When coming to the Kruger on holiday you know not to expect 5 star accomodation so i was not too surprised by Elephant Walk's simplicity. The chalets are just that - simple. What they do have is a magnificent loacation right at Crocodile Bridge gate and a beatuful view into the Kruger. Game viewing..."
more"Good food and pleasant people.
Rooms need a little more luxury"

Accommodation was comfortable and the location was fantastic, right across from the park and a very short drive to the elephant gate.
The staff was very friendly and Mike the owner was great.
I would recommend this accommodation to anyone."
"This is a great place to stay!
After a 20 year hiatus, I decided to return to South Africa to rekindle the experience of a game park.
The park did not disappoint - neither did the accommodation which is a big part of an enjoyable trip.
My son and I arrived quite late and t..."
