It is likely that your curiosity will be as stimulated as when you were a child. After all, everything around here is new and different, and asking questions to those who know the area is a must if you want to discover the mysteries of African nature. Through our partnership with
Hylton Ross Safaris, you can choose all kinds of programs: the
Panorama Route, which takes you to some of the most important places in the region; the
Sunset Safari, when animals are more active; and many other options.
The
guides actually know their trade and know the "Bush" like the back of their hands, so they follow the signs that indicate the presence of animals without even leaving the trails; whether organic or visual - indeed, many of the broken trees you'll see in the area are a result of
elephants playing. The rarest and most difficult to spot animal is, curiously enough, the
armadillo. There are many tourist guides who say that when they get to see one, it's about time to retire, since so many years go by without a single sighting.
After a day watching animals, your family can choose among the various activities available: the
Malelane golf course is always open to guests who want to visit it. At the Pestana Kruger Lodge children will find the
pool of their dreams, with a huge slide-tube where they can spend hours playing. Mothers can relax by the pool or increase their holidays' level of sophistication with the
massage room.
Once you cross a few trails surrounded by greenery and probably meet some of the local monkeys, you reach a very quiet
hut where you won't need the usual zen spa soundtrack, since the soundtrack is very much alive around you. With over
507 bird species - not all of them live at the Lodge - silence is impossible, but
tranquility is ubiquitous. And it increases when you enter one of the treatment rooms to be pampered from head to toe with Africology products, making you feel like a real African Goddess. Most treatments begin with a visit to the
Turkish bath, in order to open up the pores and allow your skin to better absorb the products. The final outcome is always incredibly relaxing, even if you only choose a facial moisturizing mask. But if you choose the massage, then you will really feel like you're in heaven.
For the whole family there's
wifi in the deck, front desk, bar and restaurant areas; and
VIP and special privileges that can be requested whenever you need:
champagne,
themed cakes,
flowers. And equally memorable is the incredible
Swazi dance, performed at night around the outdoor campfire on special occasions or upon special request by our customers. The atmosphere and the rhythm are contagious, and most certainly you will end up wanting to dance too.
