Easy access and quick access.
Easy access and quick access. We went off season but had pre-booked with SANParks, so a word of warning, don't pre-book unless it's high season to guarantee access. It doesn't specify this when booking, so we thought we were paying the conservation fees.
You're free to roam around in your own vehicle and don't need an off-roader. There is an abundance of wildlife so you don't even need to stay for 3 days. We went for 2 hours on our own and saw elephants, rhinos, 'pumbas' and impalas.
The toilets are few and far between so either go when you find them or you'll have to do it at the side of the road...without straying into the Bush.
We then went for a full day with a guide who knows the area better and took us to the watering holes we probably would've never found on our own, where giraffes, wildebeest, hippos and elephants were all hanging out.
A note about Malaria: we read that malaria was found around Kruger and had conflicting advice about taking anti-malaria tablets. In the end, we just covered our legs and arms (even though it was hot) and sprayed mosquito repellent with 50% deet.
In short, Kruger is a must, but don't expect to see leopards or cheetahs, as they are, quite literally, impossible to 'spot'.

Malelane is very beautiful and easy to get around.
Malelane is very beautiful and easy to get around. I loved the wild life the most, it was pleasant view to watch the birds and animals roaming around freely. The staff at the gate were very friendly and helpful. Wish I had more time to give a constructive review but went to the park for just half a day and managed to see some of the big 5 which was the purpose of my visit.

There is supermarkets for pre Kruger shopping on the road out of Malalene. Major roadworks taking place out of Malalene. Beware of trucks and drive carefully. Not recommended to drive in the dark while roadworks in place.

Pastana still remains for me the most affordable best and well managed accommodation in Malelane.
The Restuarant always meet my expectation of the wide spread of eats available.
Malelane is very easy to navigate. It has all the amenities to accommodate a travelers needs
The town is very clean .
I would avoid accommodation I have not visited before. A picture tell a thousand tales. But some can be very deceiving and uncomfortable.

Malelane town is totally unappealing.
Malelane town is totally unappealing. The only reason for staying in the suburb we stayed in was a) it is outside the town and b) is close to the Kruger Park entrance. We stayed in Mhlathikop suburb, which is nice and can be recommended.
We stayed over at Riverview Inn on our way in and again a few nights later, out of Kruger National Park. It felt like we had added two nights to our visit to the park, as if we were still somewhere inside Kruger on the banks of a major river with no sound or sight or thought of the so-called civilization outside. Dinner was provided on time and on the deck over-looking the Crocodile River. The food was expertly prepared by Sindile and Nhlanhla and their friendly staff. Well done guys and girls!!
This is an awesome location from which to explore Kruger national Park. It is just 10 minutes drive from Malelane Gate, which is less crowded than some. The amazing thing is you practically don't need to leave the hotel because the park is right across the river. From the deck of the hotel we saw a rhino grazing right on the shore, elephants, 3 sets of mother with baby hippos, (who've made this spot their little nursery), monkeys, impala, waterbuck, and numerous types of birds.
Overnighted at Mhlati Cottages before entering Kruger National Park during December. Very impressed with the service, stay and the location of the Mhlati cottages only a stone throw away from the Malelane gate. Ideally located and equipped for anyone that would like to travel into Kruger as a day visitor or as a overnight stop before entering. The breakfast offered was also excellent.
Amazing property!
We were staying here while on a visit to Kruger.
The location was just perfect. so close to Melalane gate . The restaurant packed us a lovely breakfast for our early start for the day.
The rooms were bare minimum but were exactly what we needed - comfortable & clean.
We also had dinner at the restaurant - tasty food & great service.
The location very convenient for Kruger National Park, the rooms were large and comfortable, and the kitchen was well-stocked for cooking, and the shared living area was very comfy. There was a nice deck area and access to a backyard garden. The provided homegrown lemons and passion fruit were great. Loadsheeding was barely noticeable.
Would definitely recommend this place. Joy and Allan are great hosts, happy to help with anything. The check-in was smooth we got there a little earlier than expected and they accommodated us on that. The place is great and relaxing and the Malelane Kruger gate is about 5mins away. Will come back for sure!
We loved our stay at River House Lodge. All the staff was great, super available and kind. They took care of scheduling the game drives for us, which was incredibly helpful. The food at dinner was great!
The viewing deck is beautiful, and the hotel is very close to Malelane Gate.
Contacted by WhatsApp to tell me about New Years Eve celebrations. Staff & management made a real effort.
Food outstanding and very good value.
Location outstanding overlooking Kruger.
I've eaten here on 2 previous visits but first time I've stayed here. Would recommend.
The house is beautiful..perfect for family or group of families consisting 8-9 people. The location os close to malelane gate of kruger..It is a good house for those who wants to visit kruger and stay outside and looking for self catering house
Great self catering close to Kruger gates. Brilliant being able to overlook the river. Host put the rugby on the bar TV and made everyone some food. Property got cleaned well everyday.
On the banks of the Crocodile River - it felt like you were IN the Kruger Park. Super comfortable thatch lodge that feels warm and inviting. I could have spent a month there.
Unique place. Old style hospitality in a funky classical and traditional environment set on the Crocodile River with animals from the Kruger National Park frequenting.
It is a beautiful place to stay. It is really comfortable and high-quality facilities. So convenient to be close to Kruger Malelane Gate. I enjoyed my stay.
