Special times in Kruger for groups & families

Summer is here, year-end is near and it’s that time again when we want to enjoy memorable times with our families and friends.

At Kruger Gate Hotel, we give a warm welcome to groups travelling together and have curated distinctive experiences to ensure you have plenty of chances to make exceptional memories together.

Here are some ways to enjoy being together during your stay:

1. Get into the bush! – Set off on a quest to spot the famous Kruger National Park Big 5 – Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Buffalo and Rhino, and much more. Choose private safari game drives with our experienced guides and adventure into the game-rich southern region of the Park through the Paul Kruger Gate – just a minute’s drive from our reception.

2. Chill out at our Pool Bar & Viewing Deck – Come together at this beautiful quiet zone to relish our exclusive, sweeping view over the Sabie River and into the Park. You can deeply relax in the outdoor lounge under the canopy of giant riverine trees and game watch as you dip into the sparkling infinity pool. Enjoy a serene alfresco lunch with gourmet pizzas from our wood-fired oven and a refreshing cocktail or glass of wine.

3. Dine privately in sensational spaces – You can book a private dinner in our 10-seater private dining pod on the Viewing Deck overlooking the Sabie River, or venture down into the riverbed with a ranger for an exceptional private River Boma dinner experience, which caters for bigger groups and can include vibrant entertainment under the stars by local dancers, singers and drummers.

4. Fly in – We offer meet and greet airport transfer services from Skukuza International Airport and Kruger Mpumalanga International. Or you can add a thrilling dimension to your Kruger holiday if you charter a helicopter which can land at the hotel’s private helipad.

The hotel is located directly at the entrance to the Krugerpark.
All rooms and public areas are tastefully renovated and give the impression of a comfortable Safari Lodge.
The staff is friendly and very attentive.
The new (additional) pool with lounge deck and snack bar offers fantastic views of Kruger Park. Here you can often observe animals such as elephants, hippos and of course impalas.

In particular, the location and comfort make this hotel the best value for the southern Krugerpark.

Beautiful hotel with a beautiful structure that gives the impression of being suspended in the trees. The decoration is superb and the location, right in front of Kruger National Park, is exceptional.
The table is excellent, with high quality dishes.
The staff is very welcoming and particularly attentive.
A truly memorable experience!

I could not recommend the Kruger Gate Hotel more! Our experience from start to finish was flawless. We were greeted at Skukuza airport and driven through Kruger National Park to get to the hotel. That meant that even our taxi journey to the hotel featured animal sightings. The staff at the hotel were so efficient and got us checked in so quickly, even though we were a large family/friends group. We stayed for four nights and decided to do 1x full day safari, 1x morning safari and 1x afternoon safari. This allowed us to explore the National Park but also enjoy the beautiful facilities at the hotel. The safaris were excellently organised and the guides were incredible. We saw 4 out of the big 5 (sadly no leopards, although we had two very near misses where we had just missed a leopard sighting) and countless other animals. In our down time we enjoyed the three swimming pools, one of which overlooked the river and where we could see elephants on the opposite banks, and our wonderful rooms. The group was split between Deluxe Rooms and the self catering chalets. The rooms were stunning and the chalets were excellent for larger groups. The food was AMAZING! Every night we were treated to an extensive buffet in the boma with amazing singing. The ambience was incredible. On the two mornings we weren\'t on game drives we enjoyed the buffet breakfast, which was also delicious. While there a large number of our group booked treatments at the spa, which we all raved about. The trip was to celebrate my 30th Birthday and we were a large group visiting from the UK. I would like to thank everyone at the Kruger Gate Hotel for making our stay so special. I really hope that I return again in the future. Thank you again!
