Description:
Deep in the heart of
the African bush, camouflaged by a canopy of trees, lies
a hidden haven of beauty and tranquillity called
Marloth Kruger Lodges. The
thatched, fully-equipped lodges offer an unforgettable
African bush experience with home from home comforts and
good value for money.
Marloth Kruger Lodges are located in Marloth Park, a
private nature reserve that shares a 17km common border
along the Crocodile River with the world famous
Kruger National Park. The
lodges are conveniently situated just a 5 min drive away
from the Crocodile River where the big 5 can be viewed
and the Crocodile Bridge entrance gate to Kruger is only
12km away.
Accommodation
Choose from 3 lodges. Bush pig and Giraffe are warm and
welcoming, comfortably furnished, decorated in an
African bush style, fully-equipped and ideal for family
holidays. Zebra is a private, luxury lodge, furnished in
an African colonial style, with attention to detail.

Attractions & Activities
At the lodges, wake to a chorus of birds and enjoy a
leisurely breakfast on the spacious verandas. Watch in
amusement as the warthogs get down on their knees to
nibble the grass and admire the beauty of the zebra,
each with its unique set of stripes. Impala, zebra,
warthogs, monkeys, baboons, kudu and giraffe have all
been spotted around the lodges. As they say in Marloth,
you dont need to go looking for animals, the animals
come to you.
After breakfast, take a drive down to the river and see
if you can spot some of the big 5. Having marvelled at
the beauty of nature, come home and cool off in the
thatched splash pool with a view into the bush.
Alternatively, enjoy a cold beer or a refreshing cup of
tea in one of the comfortably furnished bomas.
For those needing a siesta, retire to the comfort of an
air-conditioned bedroom for a quick snooze or be lulled
to sleep with a good book on the hammock. Make sure you
get there first! Smart, our resident caretaker tells us
that the monkeys take turns swinging each other in the
hammocks. Smart is an integral part of the Marloth
Kruger Lodges experience and he is highly commended by
our guests for his friendliness and helpfulness. He is
available to service the lodges at an additional fee.
In the evening, conclude a memorable day with a braai
and let the beauty of the African sky work its magic on
you. You will leave the lodges feeling relaxed and
rejuvenated feeling that your stay was too short and
that its time to start planning your next trip.
