What guests said about Malelane:

Easy access and quick access.
Easy access and quick access. We went off season but had pre-booked with SANParks, so a word of warning, don't pre-book unless it's high season to guarantee access. It doesn't specify this when booking, so we thought we were paying the conservation fees. You're free to roam around in your own vehicle and don't need an off-roader. There is an abundance of wildlife so you don't even need to stay for 3 days. We went for 2 hours on our own and saw elephants, rhinos, 'pumbas' and impalas. The toilets are few and far between so either go when you find them or you'll have to do it at the side of the road...without straying into the Bush. We then went for a full day with a guide who knows the area better and took us to the watering holes we probably would've never found on our own, where giraffes, wildebeest, hippos and elephants were all hanging out. A note about Malaria: we read that malaria was found around Kruger and had conflicting advice about taking anti-malaria tablets. In the end, we just covered our legs and arms (even though it was hot) and sprayed mosquito repellent with 50% deet. In short, Kruger is a must, but don't expect to see leopards or cheetahs, as they are, quite literally, impossible to 'spot'.cameighlItaly - 10Scored 10

Malelane is very beautiful and easy to get around.
Malelane is very beautiful and easy to get around. I loved the wild life the most, it was pleasant view to watch the birds and animals roaming around freely. The staff at the gate were very friendly and helpful. Wish I had more time to give a constructive review but went to the park for just half a day and managed to see some of the big 5 which was the purpose of my visit.Ratii - 10Scored 10

Pastana still remains for me the most affordable best and well managed accommodation in Malelane. The Restuarant always meet my expectation of the wide spread of eats available. Malelane is very easy to navigate. It has all the amenities to accommodate a travelers needs The town is very clean . I would avoid accommodation I have not visited before. A picture tell a thousand tales. But some can be very deceiving and uncomfortable.Abrahams - 6.0Scored 6.0
Malelane town is totally unappealing.
Malelane town is totally unappealing. The only reason for staying in the suburb we stayed in was a) it is outside the town and b) is close to the Kruger Park entrance. We stayed in Mhlathikop suburb, which is nice and can be recommended.

- From £54.23 per night8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 894 reviewsWe stayed over at Riverview Inn on our way in and again a few nights later, out of Kruger National Park. It felt like we had added two nights to our visit to the park, as if we were still somewhere inside Kruger on the banks of a major river with no sound or sight or thought of the so-called civilization outside. Dinner was provided on time and on the deck over-looking the Crocodile River. The food was expertly prepared by Sindile and Nhlanhla and their friendly staff. Well done guys and girls!!VenterSouth Africa
- From £60.07 per night9.3Scored 9.3SuperbRated superb· 28 reviewsIt is being in the Kruger National Park without having to pay park fees!! Right on the Southern banks of the Crocodile river, the Croc River lapa is a place to visit again and again. There is peace to be found in the quiet when you sit on the veranda gazing out over the river and the abundant wildlife comes and goes in regular in intervals. See hippo, crocs, waterbuck, impala, warthog, elephants, other species and the occasional predator on the river while sitting on the veranda.
Henk VallentgoedSouth Africa - From £54.23 per night8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 894 reviewsThis is an awesome location from which to explore Kruger national Park. It is just 10 minutes drive from Malelane Gate, which is less crowded than some. The amazing thing is you practically don't need to leave the hotel because the park is right across the river. From the deck of the hotel we saw a rhino grazing right on the shore, elephants, 3 sets of mother with baby hippos, (who've made this spot their little nursery), monkeys, impala, waterbuck, and numerous types of birds.

The Chalets are lovely with a large bath and shower and a 270 degree view from the big bed. Restaurant area is wonderful with a bar, pool and lovely seating. We spotted buck, giraffes, butterflies, monkeys and more within the property. Kruger National Park Malelane gate is about 10 mins away excluding the time to drive the dirt road.
