Rustige ontsnapping in 'n luukse eenheid. Perfek geleë en met die vermoë om wild te sien van jou eie eenheid.

Baie geniet met 'n lekker splash pool om die hitte te breek terwyl jy uit kyk vir wild.

Quiet escape in a luxury unit. Perfectly located and with the ability to see wildlife from your own unit.

Lots of fun with a nice splash pool to break the heat while you look out for wildlife.

Had a fantastic stay at Mjejane Bush camp.

Really enjoyed our stay at Mjejane Bush Camp! Unit was clean and had everything we needed! Game drives in Mjejane were fantastic! Also managed to use the bridge directly into KNP which was a lovely experience - a bit pricy but worthwhile to do at least once during your stay! All in all an awesome 5 days!

Onvergeetlike bos-naweek

Ons het in Unit 5 van die River Lodges gebly - 3 slaapkamer met 'n sleeper couch vir die kinders. Die huis het alles wat mens benodig met 'n pragtige dek wat oor die rivier kyk. Die klein swembad was net te koud om in te swem - maar ek kan dink in die somer sal dit ideaal wees. Ridance by ontvangs was 'n ster gewees - ek kon enige tyd voor en tydens ons verblyf vir hom 'n WhatsApp stuur en hy sou dadelik antwoord. Ons het ook ons game drives bespreek deur hom - nadat ek 'n paar resensies gelees het dat die game drives die moeite werd is! En dit was beslis - ons game ranger, Lordy, het uit sy pad gegaan om alles vir ons te wys. Ons is aangenaam verras deur die aantal diere wat ons op die 4000 hektaar kon sien. Baie olifante, buffels, renosters en leeus. En die sundowner stop op die oewer van die rivier was ook ongelooflik gewees. Mens moet wel net jou eie drankies en snacks saambring op die middagrit - maar koffie word voorsien met die oggendrit. Dit was regtig 'n wonderlike gesinsnaweek wat ons almal geniet het.

Unforgettable forest weekend

We stayed in Unit 5 of the River Lodges - 3 bedroom with a sleeper couch for the kids. The house has everything one needs with a beautiful deck overlooking the river. The small pool was just too cold to swim in - but I can imagine in the summer it would be ideal. Ridance at reception had been a star - I could send him a WhatsApp anytime before and during our stay and he would reply immediately. We also booked our game drives through him - after reading some reviews that the game drives are worth it! And it certainly was - our game ranger, Lordy, went out of his way to show us everything. We were pleasantly surprised by the number of animals we could see on the 4000 hectares. Lots of elephants, buffaloes, rhinos and lions. And the sundowner stop on the bank of the river was also amazing. You only have to bring your own drinks and snacks on the afternoon ride - but coffee is provided with the morning ride. It really was a great family weekend that we all enjoyed.

Wonderlike bosverblyf.

Ons het in die Bush Camp gebly, pragtige plekkie met uitsig oor die bos. Lekker plonspoel vir afkoel en het op 2 aande olifante reg voor die stoep beleef. Game drive was okay, die ranger het nie veel beskryf of gepraat meer haastig gelyk. Het op die night drive net zebras, 'n slang en olifant gesien, nie leeus of renosters of jagluiperds nie. Verder is dit 'n baie lekker plek en het dit baie geniet.

Wonderful forest stay.

We stayed in the Bush Camp, beautiful place with a view over the forest. Nice splash pool to cool off and experienced elephants right in front of the porch on 2 nights. Game drive was okay, the ranger didn't describe or talk much more seemed rushed. Only saw zebras, a snake and elephant on the night drive, not lions or rhinos or cheetahs. Furthermore, it is a very nice place and enjoyed it a lot.

Dit was 'n baie lekker familie-naweek, pragtige ligging en baie skoon/netjiese chalets.

Wonderlike gesinsnaweek, baie netjiese toegeruste chalet met alles wat jy nodig het. Maak gerus van wildritte gebruik. Wat 'n ondervinding tussen leeus en olifante.

Absoluut wonderlik, behalwe vir die game drives.

Die verblyf en bestuur is absoluut wonderlik. Die kliëntediens, skoonheid en ligging is perfek. Ons wildsgids het wel uit sy kar geklim na slapende leeus geloop, hul getart en toe net weer in sy kar geklim en hul gejaag. Nadat die leeus weer gekalmeer het, het hy op sy kar begin slaan om reaksie uit die leeus te kry vir entertainment. Hy wou graag 'n groter tip gehad het. Nee, dit was glad nie goed nie. Die kamp self is asemrowend.

Absolutely great, except for the game drives.

The accommodation and management are absolutely wonderful. The customer service, beauty and location are perfect. Our game guide did get out of his car and walk towards sleeping lions, taunt them and then just get back in his car and chase them. After the lions calmed down again, he started hitting his car to get a reaction from the lions for entertainment. He wished he had a bigger tip. No, it wasn't good at all. The camp itself is breathtaking.

Dear Daphne,
Thank you for taking the time to complete our survey and we assure you that we have addressed the issue with the relevant persons involved. This is certainly not up to the standard that is set here at Mjejane bush camp and for that matter across the guiding industry.

Die kliëntediens was regtig teleurstellend.

Die ligging en eenheid was besonders. Maar die kliëntediens het definitief teleurgestel. Ons het voor dooiemansdeur gearriveer met aanwysings vir ons met ons van verkeerd gespel op die deur. Ons het Sondag na 'n dag in die wildtuin by 'n vuil eenheid gearriveer. Hulle diens nie eenhede op 'n Sondag nie, maar niemand het dit aan ons genoem nie. Ons het die volgende dag gevra na drankie by die lodge op die rivier net om te hoor dis nie vir die gaste wat by die Bushcamp woon nie. Ons het 'n paar items vergeet by die eenheid. Maar in plaas daarvan dat ontvangs ons geskakel het, het die skoonmaakster ons direk gekontak.

The customer service was really disappointing.

The location and unit were exceptional. But the customer service definitely disappointed. We arrived in front of dead man's door with directions for us with our last name misspelled on the door. We arrived at a dirty unit on Sunday after a day in the game park. They don't service units on a Sunday, but no one mentioned that to us. The next day we asked for a drink at the lodge on the river only to be told it was not for the guests living at the Bushcamp. We forgot some items at the unit. But instead of reception calling us, the cleaning lady contacted us directly.

Fantastiese verblyf.

Ons het 'n wonderlike tyd gehad. 'n Naweek is net te kort. Die personeel en skoonmaakdienste was almal vriendelik en behulpsaam. Dit is 'n pragtige plek met 'n fantastiese view wat uitkyk oor die Krokodilrivier. Ek sal dit vir seker aanbeveel vir enige reistipe.

Nuwe Jaar vakansie by Mjejane.

Mjejane Bush Camp is 'n pragtige reservaat met netjiese, stylvolle en gerieflike huisies. Ons was teleurgesteld toe ons daar kom en hoor die hek na die Kruger Wildtuin is al maande lank toe - veral aangesien dit een van die hoofredes was waarom ons daar bespreek het. Niemand het ons in kennis gestel hiervan nie, en indien hulle het sou ons waarskynlik ons bespreking gekanselleer het. Wat ook die situasie vererger het is dat mens verbied word om enigsins self in die reservaat te ry en wild te kyk (behalwe vir dit wat jy sien op pad in en uit die reservaat uit). Mens word 'forseer' om vir wildritte te betaal as jy enigsins wil wild kyk. Hierdie wildritte word 3 maal per dag aangebied. Verder is daar nie veel ander geriewe of 'entertainment' behalwe vir die restaurant by die River Lodge (wat ek so 2/5 sal gee), en elke chalet se splash pool nie. Vir kinders is daar 'n 'foosball' tafel en bordspeletjies by die ontvangs. Mjejane het baie potensiaal en ons hoop om weer terug te keer sodra dit meer van ons vakansiebehoeftes bevredig.

New Years Vacation at Mjejane.

Mjejane Bush Camp is a lovely reserve with neat, stylish, comfortable little houses. We were disappointed to hear upon arrival that the gate to the Kruger National Park has been closed for months as that was the main reasons why we booked there. Nobody notified us of this and had they done so we probably would have cancelled our booking. What made things worse was that one is forbidden to go game viewing with one's own car. The only game we saw was when we entered and exited the reserve. One is therefore forced to pay for game drives, which take place 3 times a day. Other than that there is not much to do, except the restaurant (which I would rate 2 out of 5) and each chalet's splash pool. For children there is a foosball table and board games at reception. Mjejane has so much potential, so we would like to return as soon as it satisfies more of our vacation needs.

Although the unit was luxurious and beautiful, it was really neglegted and the key attraction for us to stay there was the bridge that gave access to KNP, however this was inaccessable. In summary, very disappointing.

The unit was neglected, 1) roof tiles were missing and it rained into the unit 2) the water was smelly and not drinkable and for a 5 star resort one would expect a notice to the point and bottled water provided 3) the dirt road to the resort was in very bad condition, although a road scraper stood on the property it was not used before or during our stay, however on the morning of our departure 16 December when the big holiday rush began they began restoring the road - this only contributed to our "orphan-annie-feel" 4) the bridge (main attraction) to KNP could not be used due to some political reason, it is shocking that the resort had not advised us of this during the booking process, as this was the main reason we chose to stay at Mjejane, resulting in us traveling 80km daily to get to the park and back 5) the main swimming pool was filthy, the water was disgusting, the green algae on the floor was 2cm deep, we could not swim in it. Very very poor and disappointing. The most disappointing of all is that we wrote a 10 point issue list and gave it to reception and no-one has contacted us to discuss this.
