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.

I have been coming to the Kruger Gate hotel Since I was four years old and it has been the highlight of my year ever since.

My sister got married here and it was such an amazing wedding.

The views are incredible, the food is delicious and the rooms are impeccable. The comfiest beds I have ever slept in.

The staff are so friendly and welcoming. I have known Mishack since I was little and every time is so amazing to catch up with him. He went from making me vanilla milkshakes as a little kid to making me amazing cocktails as an adult. The last time I was there myself and my partner had a private dinner which was so amazing we had to have another! Zenda and Tsephe truly made it so special for us. The dinners in the Lapa is one my highlights as we always spot monkeys and sometimes if we are lucky a residential Genet. Samarina was so kind as to reserve a table for us every night at our favourite spot.

I could not recommend this place any higher as it truly is life changing!

An exceptional experience in a beautiful hotel. Staff went out of their way to make our stay a memorable one.

The rooms are beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean with comfortable beds, spacious living area, great en suite bathroom with wonderfully big showers.

Food was exceptional at the Lapa restaurant in the evening, with tables set around the fire pits and a fabulous array of local and international dishes to choose from at the buffet. Breakfast, served at the indoors restaurant, had everything you could imagine to the highest standard.

Overall, the ambience is what truly makes it; just amazing. 10 out of 10.
