Kingfisher-Creek-Lodge-Four-Star-guest-lodge
Everything was absolutely perfect at this intimate, small lodge... the accommodation, the staff, the food, the location and setting. Our room was private, spacious, beautifully designed and immaculately clean with a lovely view of the surrounding bush. What a surprise to see zebra, nyala, bush buck and other animals wander past our deck, and monkeys and birds play in the trees above, while enjoying our morning coffee. Annie (& John) the owners were so genuinely welcoming and helpful… we were made to feel right at home, like lifelong friends. This was our third trip to Africa (from Australia) and the staff were the friendliest we have ever experienced and the service was outstanding. We stayed for 2 nights (wish it was longer) and the food was amazing.

We were blown away with the lodge, the welcoming from Annie and her staff, the facilities and just the feel that the whole place had to it. The rooms are just perfect. We stayed in the Malachite Tent which is on a high deck overlooking the African bush. The bed and pillows were so comfortable, the outside shower was amazing, To be surrounded by wildlife sounds and brilliant views of the sunset! A few nights we were sitting on our balcony after dinner and could hear hyenas calling in the distance. I mean, it doesn’t get much better than that! The rooms are equipped with everything and more needed for a comfortable stay, the pool and deck area were beautiful and the bar was stocked with a huge variety of drinks, beers, cider, wines and spirits as well a large selection of soft drinks to cater for everyone’s favourite tipple, and what better place to have a drink than to be sitting overlooking the wildlife and listening to the sounds of the roaming animals, we were even joined by some giraffes and Nyala a few times during our stay whilst relaxing and having a drink, there really is no experience like it.

Prachtige plek Wat een heerlijke plek. Gastvrouw Annie laat je je zeer welkom voelen. Alles wordt voor je geregeld. Super eten, vriendelijk personeel en een fijne luxe tent met zitje buiten. Is even rijden om er te komen, maar de rit zeker waard. Dank voor de mooie dagen.

Die Zimmer sind modern und gemütlich gestaltet, die Außendusche ist großartig. Der Pool ist toll in die Natur integriert. Der Restaurantbereich mit einer Feuerstelle ist sehr schön. Wir haben uns wahnsinnig wohl gefühlt, auch da die Besitzerin und ihre Familie sehr sympathisch sind und uns auch viele Tipps gaben. Ausflüge u Game Drive konnte man über die Unterkunft buchen.

The Kingfisher Creek Safari Lodge is truly a hidden gem in the Greater Kruger area. Our lodge was modern, spacious, extremely clean and super comfortable. We especially loved the outdoor shower where you could hear the voices of nature while getting ready for the day.

Loved every bit of our stay at this lodge! We stayed here for 3 nights with our toddler and Annie was very accommodating. Had a cot set up in our room on arrival for our toddler and ensured she had a proper meal for supper. The huts were beautiful & clean, the meals were delicious. Annie, her staff and family were very welcoming! She also set up both of our safari tours for us at Kruger and recommended other things we could do in the area. An excellent place to stay for a family.

On our way to the Lodge we were already greeted by some curious Zebras on the path. How wonderful, it gives that Bush Feeling right away. We stayed for three nights and Annie and her amazing team were wonderful and so was the tented chalet. It was equipped with everything one needs, it is spotless clean, mattresses very comfy and I personally loved the outdoor shower....I mean how nice is it to come back from a Game Drive and then taking a nice hot shower looking at the bush and birds....very special! The food was very good. We stayed at several lodges during our trip and I think Kingfisher beat them all in terms of food. The chef is such a sweet soul and she does some magic in her kitchen. It´s clearly her passion. Accommodation itself is spotless but what makes it perfect is the personal attention, friendliness and general good vibe at the Lodge and it is affordable, too which is awesome for families. I can highly recommend it. Advise: don´t skimp on a decent car / rental vehicle. Riding the roads is so much more relaxed with higher clearance. It is bushland after all.

Annie is the best!
We enjoyed our stay SO much, we would definitely recommend Kingfisher Creek Lodge. We were on our honeymoon and it was the best time we had there. We know there are a few things that are important while travelling and we will mention just a few things that were outstanding:
1. There is an outside shower and a bathtub that you definitely do not want to get out of.
2. The bed (matrass) and pillows are perfect.
3. There is enough space to walk around in the room and bathroom.
4. The mornings are amazing as you open the sliding doors, make your cup of coffee and get back into bed and experience true nature with the birds and the sunrise.
5.The staff is friendly and kind.
6. The food is super delicious. (and more than enough)
7. Annie is so accommodating and will go out of her way to make sure you are happy.

Do yourself a favor and book at Kingfisher Creek Lodge.

Zeer mooi verblijf met een persoonlijk ontvangst door een geweldige gastvrouw.

Zeer vriendelijk en persoonlijk ontvangst door gastvrouw Annie. Prachtige locatie midden in de natuur. De kamers met grote ramen en buitendouche waren geweldig. Lekker gegeten in de lodge en alle faciliteiten waren aanwezig voor een geweldig verblijf. Een mooie ervaring mede dankzij gastvrouw Annie en haar team.
Kingfisher Creek Lodge Safari - Guided Blyde River Boat Cruise
What an absolutely amazing experience!!! From the minute we arrived Annie and her staff treated us like royalty. The room was very clean and we loved the outside shower . In the evenings the atmosphere was very romantic set around a bonfire with drinks. The food was at a very high level as well ( complements again to the chef ). Also my wife would be disappointed if I did not mention the Africology products (Hand and body wash, shampoo, conditioner and hand sanitizer) available in our room. Annie a big thank you to you and your staff for taking such good care of us. We will see you again soon!

It felt like we were staying with family. Gracious hosting, fine attention to detail and super clean room and facilities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Staff will go above and beyond for guests. Food was amazing, the cook did an amazing job coming up with meals. The owner was very friendly it was great getting to know her and the knowledge she has. Also each room had amazing Wi-Fi signals and with travel experience this is very odd for the bush. I totally loved staying at this property and will recommend it highly to anyone.

My boyfriend and I recently stayed at Kingfisher Creek during our visit to the Kruger Park. It was such a beautiful place and exactly what you envision your wildlife experience to be like. The house was extremely clean and gorgeously decorated, there was a large living area, great kitchen with all your normal appliances and the most comfortable bed in the world! The bathroom had a big a shower, a lovely bath and plenty of towels & toiletries. Upon arrival, our hosts had a log fire burning for us outside and some ice cold beers. We just spent the evening listening to all the surrounding wildlife and enjoying the experience - it was magical! When we left early in the morning, there were giraffe waiting for us just outside the gates! We were overjoyed! Annie & her husband were truly wonderful and we’d like to thank them for such a cool experience.

This place is an absolute treasure and a must for anyone looking for fabulous and well located accommodation. I stayed here earlier this year and loved it so much I'm going back in December!! Annie was wonderful and incredibly helpful. It's perfectly located for Hoedspruit Eastgate airport, Kruger and the Blyde River. The place is very peaceful apart from the wide array of wildlife and colourful birds. Bring your camera!! Plenty to do in the region as well.
