Situated within the Greater Kruger National Park, Lions Place is located in Grietjie Private Nature Reserve.

Lions Place is a fabulous lodge. Located in the middle of a private reserve bordering the Kruger National Park, the hotel provides a luxury experience. Besides being very nice, well decorated and comfortable, it offers several alternatives to tour the area with highly trained guides (Congratulations to JB and Ian for their fantastic work as guides!) The room is very spacious, with a very comfortable bed, a large bathroom with a large bathtub, closets, tea and coffee making facilities, cold water and an incredible view of the savannah. Lions Place also has a swimming pool, and two viewpoint that allow you to view the beautiful scenery, plus the garden where if you are lucky you can find wild animals (we saw a porcupine). JB, who is in charge of the place is the best! Very friendly, welcoming and an excellent guide both in the area and during the full day safari we did in Kruger. At Lions Places you can also request, in addition to the value of your stay, a dinner, which is an unforgettable experience. A French and South African fusion dinner with a starter, main course and dessert, which, weather permitting, is served outdoors. In our case we did a full day safari (exceptional!) and a morning bush walk. Both instances were amazing! We saw lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, and many other mammals and birds that made the visit unforgettable. A special note to the ladies who run the place, they are very kind and excellent cooks! Totally recommended and we would stay there again.

Stay at the lodge in the private Griejete Park Reserve at Mbizi Bush Lodge was truly remarkable. Breathtaking scenery, with an amazing pool and stunning views, the lodge provided the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable holiday. What truly set this experience apart was the expertise and hospitality of Bjorn and his family, who served as our hosts. As an experienced ranger with a deep knowledge of the local wildlife, Bjorn enriched our stay with insightful safaris and engaging conversations about animals. Bjorn's family contributed to the warm and welcoming atmosphere, making us feel like part of their own. Delicious meals, their genuine care for our comfort and enjoyment was evident throughout our stay.

We could not have made a better choice of lodge. The lodge is small (max 10 people), the food is great, the staff is lovely, the surroundings are very peaceful and quiet and the safari’s were unforgettable. We spotted lions, a leopard, zebras, giraffes, elephants and much more. We were extremely surprised but the quality of the food and drinks and the lovely ambiance and attentiveness of the staff at the camp. 10/10 experience all-round.

A fantastic private lodge with a beautiful rooms and tastefully decorated. The host Ian is outstanding as a person. If you are there especially for the hide photography I would recommend 4 days. We were unlucky with the two days we stayed in terms of sightings but that all changed the day we left. Hence would recommend at least 3 if not 4-5 days to better your chances.

its a big 5.

its a big 5. BUT because of so many private properties you can not game drive much of the reserve like other reserves and also within the reserve the owners of the lodges seem to not like each other that much. they gossip a lot about each other ( i did stay in different places in this reserve ) and i did not have this issue in other game reserves.

Dear Lengau Lodge Team,

Dear Lengau Lodge Team, We would like to sincerely thank you for our three-day stay with you. Loek and Ilse warmly welcomed us upon our arrival and patiently explained everything to us. On the same day, we went on an afternoon safari with Loek, which was simply wonderful. On the way to the lodge, we even encountered a group of elephants. Already on the first day, we were able to admire impalas, elephants, and lions. The location of the lodge directly in the Great Kruger Park is simply phenomenal. In the evenings, we could hear the roar of the lions, and the soundscape was truly unique. The lodge itself was very clean and tastefully decorated. We particularly enjoyed the pool area, from which you have a direct view of the bush and can observe animals. This was a wonderful opportunity to experience nature and wildlife up close. Loek was an extremely friendly safari guide and had extensive knowledge. We also had the pleasure of booking the gin tasting, which we can definitely recommend. It was evident that Luug and Ilse were very committed to providing their guests with a pleasant stay. However, we would also like to honestly share our experience that we felt unable to express every wish, as we were afraid of asking for too much. In our opinion, the food was not always sufficient, and instead of a breakfast buffet, there was a pre-set breakfast menu. We would have liked to be treated more individually as guests and to have felt that our wishes were positively received. Nevertheless, we would like to emphasize that overall we were satisfied with our stay at Lengau Lodge and would gladly recommend it. The warmth and efforts of Loek and Ilse impressed us, and the location of the lodge in the Great Kruger Park is simply unbeatable. We are glad to have chosen this lodge. Thank you once again for your hospitality. Kind regards, Dimitri&Rabia
