Our guide Tyrone and trackers Mashaba/Forward were amazing. We assume we were very fortunate since we saw the big 5 within 6 hours. We also - thanks to the guide and tracker - had amazing leopard sightings. We had an amazing time and definitely would love to come back. Recommended!! Thank you so much Tyrone, Mashaba, Forward and all of the other staff for giving us such a great time.

    Great park, amazing wildlife, fantastic experience.

    Great park, amazing wildlife, fantastic experience. This being said, it is not a zoo! Don't expect to see all the existing animals in the parc! Some are easy to spot and other not so much, this is real animal kingdom and it's difficult to say who is watching who! Sun sets are also amazing with beautiful colors. Vegetation is small but dense(bushes). According to our guide it is easier to spot the animal during winter / dry season. Bushes hve less leaves making easier spotting animals and the animals gather around the water spot. During summer it is the opposite. Bushes are more dense and r'there is water everywhere making animal spotting more difficult. So an advice: winter is great for animals but of course temperature are lower so be prepared for low temperature and bring some warm clothes.

    Very good upmarket hotel with well equipped luxury rooms and facilities. Dinner and breakfast included in the rate and both were exquisite. Friendly and helpful staff to assist from the moment you arrive till the moment you leave. I can highly recommend a planned holiday to this hotel which is situated only a few hundred metres away from the Kruger Gate leading to Skukuza. Great vacation.

    If you’re thinking of booking this hotel, stop thinking and do it. The accommodations were absolutely incredible. The staff was so friendly & helpful. We took 1 game drive with them and it was a 200/10. Our guide, Elvis, did everything in his power to help us find the Big Five & I’ll never forget him & his knowledge. Get to Kruger Gate Hotel now!!

    Let me just say I thank God for nature, I love how the environment of Skukuza is so clean. I enjoyed the game drive with our amazing driver Lucky from Buschbuckridge lodge. I love that there are all the amenities you need like restaurants and including a petrol station.

    There was some delay in the pick up from the airport which we had requested. Apart from that the stay was well beyond expectations. The staff was ever smiling, polite and eager to please. The food quality and spread was very substantial even for vegetarians. It was value for money

    Skukuza in the Kruger park is amazing, as is the whole park really! We saw the big 5 in 3 days of self driving with kids (8&9) and stayed in Berg-en-dal rest camp for 2 nights and the Kruger Gate Hotel for 2 nights as well, to see a different part of the park. The restaurant at the hotel and Skakuza rest camp we’re both lovely. As a tourist though, in SA, you should always be vigilant when travelling especially with all your stuff.

    Our host, Merriam, was the first element making our trip worthwhile and special. She walked the extra mile to make our trip exceptional and was very accommodating to our specific needs. The tent is well equipped & very clean. Also close to the communal bathrooms and the swimming pool. Walking distance to the train restaurant and the park's shop. Braai/barbeque facilities available. The transportation from Skukuza airport was also just perfect - game drive vehicle similar to the more expensive lodge transportation.

    We absolutely loved everything about this place. It had beautiful interior, it was super clean, barely any insects, the host was reachable and responsive all the time - without a doubt I would come there again! The place looks almost better than in the pictures and cleaning was done every day. Also, this place is within a protected space from the Kruger Gate Hotel and you can use their pool and restaurant if you consume something there. Thanks again for having us, it was amazing!

    This is a excellent establishment conveniently situated close to the Kruger National Park. We loved the simplicity and great value for money. The beds were very comfortable after running the Skukuza Marathon and a long day checking out the animals in the wild. We will most definitely stay at Sleepover in the future and get our family members to do the same. The kitchen staff was great and the food was beyond what was was expected. Keep it up

    Pleasant stay in Skukuza, the clamping formula Yebo Safari will allow you to change places in the Kruger park if you wish, tent comfort and everything available. Our guide Merriam has been attentive and funny throughout the stay, she has perfectly guided us to find the lion as well as the different animals of the national park, good advice on the places and information of the park. I highly recommend! We’ll be back!

    Loved our stay from check in until check out..well..hated to leave though! Such a special location, incredible food, fantastic staff and guides, and adored our chalet tent. We originally booked one night and decided quickly, even before arriving that one wasn’t enough. So glad we did because we would have regretted not staying that second night and wish it could have been more like 3-4 nights!
