  Choosing to visit Mvuradona Safari Lodge, in Marloth Park, right next to the Kruger National Park will prove to be a highlight of your holiday or weekend away. The Lodge... read more is set in unspoiled environment and offers overseas visitors a real taste of Africa.
The Lodge is perfect for a family get together, and having 8 bedrooms ensures outstanding service, and with lock down, the absolute perfect or a long weekend getaway.
My family, without exception, enjoyed the delicious meals, comfy beds, beautiful crisp linen and the game that wondered into the Lodge grounds.
Ryhan the owner of the lodge is a qualified and very experienced game ranger; so the cherry on top of your stay will be to see most of the game in the Kruger Park on a morning or late afternoon drive!

We chose to do one full day safari and then a couple of self-drive safaris on the other days. While I enjoyed my full-day safari I must admit that the guide we were given was not the best. We shared this with the lodge and learned that she wasn't the full-time host. If you do the full day safari I would recommend asking if you can go on one of the days the owner leads the trips. I have heard great things about him! And I know for a fact he has some incredible stories! During our stay, we were very pleased with the food. The breakfast was a little different each day and always tasty. The dinners were also very satisfying. We chose to not eat at the resort every night just because we wanted to experience other options in the area. You could choose to eat at the lodge every night and be very happy!

The only negative for me during the stay was the tension between the staff. Living in Norway I must admit that the South African culture was a bit rougher than I am used to (I am not saying it is bad, just very different from what I am used to). While the white management staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, it was the black support staff that truly made the time at the lodge special! They were some of the friendliest people I have engaged within such a setting and they were always willing to be helpful. I was grateful to have such great service. The tension I spoke about was obvious on several occasions during our stay and left me feeling a bit awkward. I do not want to share any details but it was a challenge during my stay. It is entirely possible that this atmosphere is present in every lodge as it might just be cultural.

Overall I really enjoyed this lodge and for the price, I imagine it is hard to beat. It is small and cozy so you will not feel overrun by hundreds of guests. More
