Love blossoms in the wilds of Kruger

Travelling together as a couple brings a host of benefits to a relationship. Away from the stress and hustle of everyday life, you can enjoy quality time, putting aside your devices to focus on each other.

Shared experiences in beautiful settings are woven into the rich tapestry of your relationship and deepen emotional bonds. Trust, affection, and intimacy are all enhanced by taking time out to explore new destinations and experiences and a Kruger safari holiday is one of the best choices for a couple’s getaway that is meaningful and memorable.

Africa’s alluring bushveld, with its heat, wildness, and sensational beauty, has always been a perfect setting for romance. Fresh sunrises and vivid sunsets, hot days and star-lit nights, wide, flowing rivers and lush savannahs teeming with predators and prey provide a backdrop that is gorgeous, adventurous, and sensual.

Now, let’s deep-dive into the essential elements of a romantic escape at Kruger Gate Hotel:

Luxury Kruger accommodation

You want a private sanctuary that is the ultimate in comfort and style. Choose a Luxury Room with a plush large-size King Bed and crisp linens. Our Luxury Rooms have en-suite bathrooms with twin basins, a walk-in shower and a bathtub, as well as a separate toilet. For a special night in, there’s a flat screen TV and in-room dining and bar service. You can also upgrade to a spacious Kruger Suite with a larger lounge area and private outdoor patio.

Thrilling Kruger safaris

It takes less than a minute’s drive to enter the Park through the Paul Kruger Gate. Adventure out into wild together every day on guided, open-vehicle morning, all-day, afternoon and night Kruger National Park game drives with the anticipation of spotting the Big 5 – Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Buffalo and Black Rhino, and much more. Let go of the stresses and strains of modern life as you together immerse yourselves in the untamed wild and connect to your oneness with nature.

Relaxing Pool Bar & Viewing Deck 

This scenic quiet zone with infinity pool is set in tranquil riverine woodland and offers endless views into the Kruger Park and all-day game-viewing from our unique vantage at the Sabie River. Swim, sunbathe and enjoy wood-fired pizzas and fine wine at lunch or sharing platters and cocktails at sundowners and dinners.

Indulgent African Spa

After the exhilaration of your safari excursions, visit our serene African-inspired Spa overlooking the Sabie River. There’s a dedicated couple’s tree-house treatment room where our trained therapists will pamper you both. Customise your Spa experience by choosing from our menu of treatments including therapeutic massages such as stress relief, hot stone, or aromatherapy, body exfoliations and scrubs, as well as cleansing and purifying facials.

Unforgettable African dining

Our Lapa Restaurant with its vibrant firelit African feasts is a wonderful social setting for romantic dinners. However, private dining experiences in the secluded pods along our game viewing deck are also available. Experience the ultimate in togetherness, Kruger Park dining under the stars, a wide choice of delicious food and discreet service.

Cosy up at the Shilovu Bar

Round off a great day by stopping by the Shilovu Bar for a night-cap of Amarula liqueur or premium whiskey. Situated along the hotel’s wooden walkway through the woodland, Shilovu includes an elegant lounge, a friendly bar area and lamp-lit nooks that are ideal for a romantic after-dinner interlude.
You will find that your romantic getaway at Kruger Park Hotel becomes more than an escapade – it’s a unique chapter in your love story.

We had a great stay at Kruger Gate Hotel. The location right next to the national park was really unique. At the pool bar and in the pool you can directly observe animals - unique for us.
Service, food also great.
Safaris were not booked through the hotel as we booked a guided trip through Tourcompass.

From the moment we stepped into Kruger Gate Hotel it was like stepping into paradise.
I cannot praise the staff enough, thoughtful cheerful very friendly, the catering staff presented a variety of beautiful dishes every day.
The facilities were brilliant, rooms were spacious with extremely comfortable beds. And the view from the pool area onto the safari park were amazing.
I would highly recommend Kruger Gate Hotel to anyone visiting South Africa, especially first time visitors wanting to experience the Safari Park.

We had a great experience at Kruger Gate Hotel. Since we made the reservation we felt that they were very kind and welcoming answering all our questions and support us. When we got here, Dion, the driver who took us from the airport was very nice and helped us to find the animals in our way to the hotel. The hotel has an excellent location and the Safari was perfect! Prince was our tour guide for the Safari and we also loved it. Staff are very friendly and kind. Cleaning is very good . It is a beautiful and big hotel. For sure I will come back!

The entire experience was dreamy, we had a wonderful time. Between game drives that were amazing, we enjoyed all the hotel’s amenities, and they all contributed to our amazing Safari experience. The room was great, and so was the spa and the gym. The food selection is very big and the pool has amazing view (we even had some elephants who visited!). The staff is amazing and very welcoming! Highly recommended.

I can\'t fault this place. Everything was amazing, from the rooms and facilities to the location, views and food. Seeing animals wander by whilst swimming in the infinity pool is just incredible.
