Hotels near Olifants West Game Reserve, Balule Game Reserve

Naledi is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed. The level of quality service was extremely high. They always anticipated my every need and made sure that I did everything that I had set to do there. The facilities were all very thought out, so that you can maximize your experience at the reserve. The room was superb! The animals get really close to the hotel! The game drives, especially the knowledge of the guides (Oupa and Excellent), their spirit, it was truly amazing. I definitely recommend.

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Milima Big 5 Safari Lodge in the Greater Kruger area in South Africa, and it was, without a doubt, one of the most remarkable experiences of our lives. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the breathtaking beauty of the lodge and its surroundings. The lodge perfectly blends luxury and nature, offering an authentic yet comfortable safari experience. Accommodation: The rooms were beautifully appointed, providing a perfect blend of comfort and elegance. Waking up to the sounds of nature and the sight of the stunning landscape right from our window was a daily delight. Staff: The staff at Milima Big 5 went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home. They were attentive, friendly, and always available to assist with anything we needed. Food: The culinary experience was a highlight in itself. Each meal was a delightful adventure, with a variety of delicious dishes that catered to all tastes. The quality and presentation of the food were exceptional, adding to the overall luxury of our stay. Wildlife Experience: The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the wildlife. Guided by our fantastic guide, Sydney, we embarked on thrilling game drives, witnessing an abundance of animals in their natural habitat. Sydney's knowledge and passion for wildlife enriched our experience, making each sighting more special. Milima Big 5 Safari Lodge is more than just a place to stay; it's a gateway to a magical and unforgettable safari adventure. We left with hearts full of joy and memories that will last a lifetime. We highly recommend this lodge to anyone looking for an extraordinary safari experience in South Africa.

great place nice owners and guests

Everything was impeccable. We were fortunate enough to be the only guests for the time we were there. A highlight is that all of our meals were set up in different areas of the reserve. The chef’s meals and plating was superb. The portions were large. The in-house cinema was a bonus . Janus is a tremendous manager and ensured we had everything we needed during our stay. Lastly, on our last day we were lucky enough to have dinner with one of the owners and her two friends which made us feel a little like family. My partner and I and her mother would definitely come back and we will be recommending 7star Oase to friends and family

Every single staff member was amazing. They were so professional, welcoming, and just good at their jobs. Special shout out to Bianca, the chef. Awesome food with impressive presentation. Also, shout out to Lee Ann, the general manager but most important to us, the game trail guide. Her expertise is unbelievable. Masodini is a must see and experience. If I could rate it higher than five stars, I would.

What a place to stay! This was our second trip in two years to Kruger. Can’t say enough about the lodge, rooms (comfy beds!), views, food, our wonderful guide Victor, ownership, and the rest of the staff. We saw all the big 5 within 24 hours and had way more intimate and close up viewings than other options. They are so caring and paid attention to small details to make guests feel special. We were sad to leave. This was just as beautiful and luxurious as more expensive lodges, but less pretentious. Very welcoming and comfortable. Even the monkeys were cute and not wrecking havoc! It makes a huge difference during down time to enjoy where you are staying and the views of animals just from our deck and view was above and beyond what we would expect. We would recommend Greenfire to anyone and we can’t wait to come back. Thanks everyone!
