Reviews of Nie-Zel LogHomes


"Our Mpumalanga Adventure"

(South Africa) Vicki Palmer

"We had two days with Elma, couldn't have wished for a more idyllic place to stay, even when the electricity went off she was there with the gas cooker! Home from home will recommend the place to everyone and so close to the Kruger Park, Phabeni Gate (which was our next stop). Vicki Palmer"


"Great location , Best host in South Africa!"

(South Africa) Jessica Cortright

"We were planning on staying 1 night but stayed 2. We were welcomed like family and found a wonderfully sweet and informative hostess that we will never forget. These places were expertly built with great views of the valley and a perfect launching pad for the Kruger. Thank you Elma!"


"Pleasant Accommodation Close to Kruger"

(South Africa) Bradford Wills

"The log home was a great place to stay when we weren't able to get a booking in Kruger. Elma is a wonderful hostess and went to every effort to make our stay as comfortable as possible."

"While the location of this accommodation is fairly central for those wishing to visit Kruger National Park, NiŽ-Zel Log Homes did not meet our expectations on our recent6 day visit. Although comfortable, the dŽcor is very out-dated and when compared with other accommodation in the same price range, NiŽ-Zel appears to be overpriced for the facilities on offer. We particularly disliked the very steep driveway.

The owner (Elma Malan) was wonderful and very helpful, and we wish her all the best in the future.

"Enjoyed my stay there very much. Relaxing and quiet

Received excellent service from the owner Elma Malan. She really went the extra mile in customer service. So rare to find these days. I would recommend Nie - Zel Log homes to my friends.I hope to go back there again.

"Very comfortable clean and tidy accomodation, all home comforts and facilities avaliable. The entrance is rather tricky to negotiate but once you get the hang of it its easy. Close to the Kruger park and also easy access to the Panorama area of Mpumalanga."

"Nestled in a lush, garden, hillside setting, this log cabin is homely and comfortable with everything we wanted for a four night break visiting Kruger Park and the beautiful countryside and attractions around Hazyview. It is run by a genuinely lovely person called Elma. It is true that the driveway is steep, but nothing too challenging. The furnishings aren't new or luxurious, but it has a lovely, homely feel and the setting is perfect. We sat on our veranda and soaked in the peace and tranquillity. As well as visiting Kruger Park, it is well worth exploring the area. Elma recommended a full day trip but we only managed the nearest town and God's Window, which were both well worth seeing. So there is plenty more to go at, should we be able to return. Staying in this accommodation is a metaphor for life. You can whinge about the steep drive and the lack of designer fixtures and fittings, or you can appreciate the wonderful view the hillside setting allows. Stand by the pool, listen to the birdsong and look out through the lush garden to the rolling hills covered with pine, eucalyptus and banana groves, and you will fully appreciate the wonderful world in which we live."

"My friends and I spent three super nice days at Nie-Zel Loghomes. The host was very, very helpful and sweet and she made us all feel so welcome, almost like family. The lodge is located far away from roads and noise, so we were able to enjoy the beautiful nature and view without feeling disturbed. We all thought the lodge was placed in a good distance from Hazyview's many attractions, it was only a 5-10 minute drive. The pool was very clean and so was the lodge, which is something that is very important to us. All in all: no complains, we were happy to be there and we definetely want to come back. "

Our time at Nie-Zel LogHomes and Elma was wonderful, her hospitality is fantastic. We did not want to come home, had a much needed, good break – Nie-Zel was the place of rest and peace. Thank you very much.
