About this place
Skukuza Safari Lodge is a modern lodge inside Skukuza Rest Camp, the Kruger National Park's largest camp, on the Sabie River. It gives guests the comfort of a hotel with the park on the doorstep, and Skukuza's shop, fuel station, bank and nursery are within walking distance.
There are 128 rooms: 91 standard rooms, 22 family rooms, 7 universally accessible rooms and 8 luxury suites. Meals range from a la carte and buffet dining to braai nights and bush braais, and the lodge has a pool, a gym and a conference centre.
Game drives and guided activities leave from Skukuza, and guests can also explore the southern Kruger on their own.
