Bushveld starry sky magic, neat lodge, warm hospitality, lovely swimming pool. Our stay at Mountain View Safari Lodge was simply fantastic! The lodge is situated in the heart of the Bushveld, where dead silence and a beautiful starry sky create an unforgettable atmosphere every night. The accommodation itself is extremely neat, clean and decorated with great care – everything one needs for a comfortable and relaxing getaway is there. Fanie received us with warmth and friendliness and made us feel at home immediately. The swimming pool was a wonderful relief in the heat of the day and made the experience even more special. This lodge offers the perfect combination of tranquility, style and hospitality. We will definitely come back to visit here – Mountain View Safari Lodge is a true gem in the Bushveld!

Bosveld sterrehemel-magie, netjiese lodge, warm gasvryheid, heerlike swembad. Ons verblyf by Mountain View Safari Lodge was eenvoudig fantasties! Die lodge is geleë in die hart van die Bosveld, waar doodse stilte en ’n pragtige sterrehemel elke aand vir ’n onvergeetlike atmosfeer sorg. Die akkommodasie self is uiters netjies, skoon en met groot sorg gedekoreer – alles wat ’n mens nodig het vir ’n gemaklike en ontspannende wegbreek is daar. Fanie het ons met warmte en vriendelikheid ontvang en ons onmiddellik tuis laat voel. Die swembad was ’n heerlike lafenis in die hitte van die dag en het die ervaring net nog meer besonders gemaak. Hierdie lodge bied die perfekte kombinasie van rustigheid, styl en gasvryheid. Ons sal beslis weer hier kom kuier – Mountain View Safari Lodge is ’n ware juweel in die Bosveld!

Beautiful scenery, peaceful and quiet. It was peaceful and the scenery was beautiful. Nice to cool off in the pool, still hot during the day because there is no air conditioning, but the evenings were nice.

Mooi natuurskoon, rustig en stil. Was rustig en die natuurskoon is mooi. Lekker afgekoel in die swembad, nog warm tydens die dag omdat daar nie aircon is nie, maar aande was lekker.

Perfect forest getaway for a couple. Had an unforgettable time. This is a fantastic place for a couple who need some peace and quiet and can enjoy the bush. Njalas came to say hello to the tent every now and then.

Perfekte bos wegbreek vir 'n paartjie. Onvergeetlike tyd gehad. Dit is 'n fantastiese plek vir 'n paartjie wat bietjie stilte nodig het en die bos kan geniet. Njalas het kort-kort kom groet by die tent.

Stunning place! Was sad that we only booked one night and didn't get to experience the pool and boma area! Absolutely stunning place!

Best value for money, seclusion and viewing of animals and nature. Great manager. We don't really have enough words to describe the stay. We stayed at Mountain View for our honeymoon as well as a few other places. Mountain View was by far the cheapest, best value for money, most secluded, neatest and well-managed venue! The first night a leopard came 5m from us to say hi. The next morning we woke up to 2 stunning giraffes by the pool; a mongoose and other animals also came to say hello. Definitely the best place I have stayed at going from Hoedspruit to the Kruger. Would recommend to anyone! Wonderful manager and close to a lot of places and fun activities as well as restaurants. 10/10. Photos don't do the place justice. Stunning!

Peaceful and restful. Our stay at Mountain View Safari Lodge was breathtaking, absolutely perfect. The place is clean, peaceful, private and beautiful. The bed was our favourite, very comfortable. The shower was perfect under the sky. The outside pool is perfect for a couple. Hot water does not run out. The tent was warm as we arrived on a windy day. We received the best hospitality from Fanie. He reached out to us before we even arrived. He constantly kept checking in throughout our travel to the lodge, during our stay and even after we left. I have never experienced such from any host. To top it all, he went the extra mile as we were celebrating my partner's birthday and he created a mini romantic setup for us, which was so thoughtful. If you are looking for time away, just you and nature, I highly recommend Mountain View Safari Lodge.

Beautiful bush break. We loved our stay here. We visited as a family with our 2-year-old. We came in the middle of winter. Although the days were lovely and warm, the nights were cold as there's no heating in the tents. They do provide lots of blankets though. We could get really close to nature, and the hosts were always available for any questions I had. Maybe the hosts should consider getting a small heater for the tent in the future, my own suggestion. It's so quaint and beautiful.

Thank you so much, Jessica, for your review. We have considered heaters before, but they add a significant fire risk which we cannot accommodate. That's why we opted for warm blankets and the fire boma. Fortunately, the temperatures even in winter are over 30 degrees Celsius, but yes, the evenings are cooler.
