Best hotels in Manyeleti

Feel like you're the only people in the Manyeleti Private Game Reserve when you spend a few nights at Tintswalo Safari Lodge. Intimate and limited to only a handful of guests, the lodge is tucked under an ancient sycamore tree grove, fringed by a waterhole. Being open to the Greater Kruger National Park, incredible wildlife often wander through the camp to drink and play while guests look on, G&T in hand. Devoid of Big Five-chasing crowds, the lodge is also perfect for spotting an array of incredible bird species.

Tintswalo Manor House on the banks of the seasonal Nwaswitsontso River is the perfect choice for families or a group of friends travelling together. Situated within the Manyeleti concession which borders the Greater Kruger Park, guests can look forward to world class game viewing in this exclusive private reserve. This home-style safari villa is fully catered for up to ten guests, with dedicated staff and its own game viewing vehicle, so you'll have total flexibility when planning your adventures. Understated luxury and plenty of space makes you feel completely at home, right from the start.

Tucked into the unfenced wilderness of Manyeleti, one of Greater Kruger's best-kept secrets, Khoka Moya lives up to its Shangaan name – 'Capture the Spirit'. And capture it you will. This is a camp that wears its heart on its sleeve: corrugated iron structures nodding to gold-rush pioneers, canvas tents open to the night sounds, and elephants wandering through to drink from the pool (yes, really). What sets it apart? The fact that children of any age can join game drives – a genuine rarity in this neck of the woods. With Big Five sightings pretty much guaranteed and a laid-back, sociable atmosphere, it's the sort of place where first-timers and seasoned safari-goers alike feel immediately at home.
