Just perfect!
We received a very warm welcome when we arrived and truly felt like we were in a home away from home. The cottages are absolutely beautiful and spotlessly clean. The layout feels like a little piece of paradise. Our only regret is not staying here longer. Highly recommend!

Compared to the Crocodile River Gate, the Malelane Gate is totally disorganized, and I don't recommend anyone to use it.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Convenience stores open till 8pm, supermarkets, restaurants and, banks all at a walking distance from the Inn

5/5 - Excellent

It's a nice small town next to a Kruger Park Gate. It has a couple of fine restaurants and its maybe that best place to stay if you're a wildlife lover. Phalaborwa is also a nice place to stay if you're visiting Kruger park.
