Wonderful experience at this newer lodge run by the local community. Spotless, comfortable and relaxing accommodation in nature. Excellent customer service, game drives and more. This place was recommended to me by prior guests, and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to enjoy it.

Mdluli is a lovely property right inside the Numbi gate of the park. The tents are large and comfortable, with new furnishings and well designed. The facilities are lovely--a nice bar/restaurant, great pool, and access to game drives are great. The staff is pleasant and hard working, always with smiles and kind words. Food was high quality and lots of variety. We only stayed 1 night but would definitely consider Mdluli for a longer stay at the park. Highly recommend.

We had a fantastic stay and safari at Mdluli. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the service was amazing. Location and amenities are great! The safari drives were great fun with brilliant guides, and we saw all of the big 5 within a few days - I would recommend that you go for the longer morning/day drives as this is where we saw the most! Its worth the additional fee.

Wonderful everything!! Our stay was amazing and went above our expectations. The staff and massage team were great. Watching elephants go by, while having cocktails in the pool was awesome.

We really enjoyed our time at Mdluli Safari Lodge. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Having them prepare food for safari's and coordinate timing made things so easy. We also appreciated the fact that they are partnered with and employ people from the community. The property itself was well maintained and felt brand new. It was really exciting to see all of the wildlife as we arrived (and left from) the property, as well as while we ate some of our meals.

Great place, wonderful nature

Un posto molto piacevole dove soggiornare all'interno del Parco Kruger. Le tende sono bellissime, grandi, confortevoli e ben attrezzate. Ottima pulizia, servizio attento e puntuale. Bella piscina da cui poter osserrvare gli elefanti che vanno a bere in una pozza di fronte. I safari sono organizzati molto bene, con guide esperte. Buona offerta culinaria. Consigliato
