Amazing location at river bank. Good rooms and nice restaurant, with very friendly staff. Great stay with hippos and elefants passing within 10 meters during dinner :-)
Olivier

Meggan
Beautiful place, great view of river and animals, excellent food and drinks. Friendly attentive staff. Cannot wait to come back.
Zach
Nice grounds and wonderful views of the crocodile river. The room was spacious but lacked lamps and was very dusty. Our biggest complaint was the lack of heat in the rooms despite outside evening temperatures or 45 degrees F (7C). The restaurant was nice but service was very slow.
JERRY
A nice place to stay but very difficult out to find using Google or Apple Maps. Address listed wanted to take us many km out of our way. Suggest property post an address that Apple Maps and Google maps can find.
Yvette
Small room, loud fridge, bathroom is in need of upgrade. Not a 4 star hotel by any means (I run a lodge myself and know all qualifications and they don't meet them honestly), a 3 at most. Room not really very clean, bed is good but all furniture is old. Curtain does not close nicely. Restaurant has hardly any options for vegetarians and none for vegan. Nice setting on the river bed.
Gerald
Amazing Rio Vista

Service was excellent, the guys did everything to accommodate us.
Very very happy and looking forward to our next visit

Amazing Rio Lodge
Fantastic views, really nice people, friendly helpful staff, real personal touch from the owners, could not be more helpful given the current world situation, bent over backwards to ensure the safety of there guests and staff.

Excellent Rio Vista Lodge 10 out of 10
Great place to stay. Friendly and welcoming and fab breakfast. It is a stone throw from Kruger National Park.
MaryfromAtlanta
Breakfast was tasty & what a view of the hippos sleeping from the Deck Restaurant. The owner was kind & we had a nice chat. All staff were so polite & professional. The room is tremendous and so was the view of the grounds, river and seeing Kruger Park on the other side.
chris
What a great place!!
Location is fantastic for Kruger (10mins drive) and beautiful views over the river into the park!
The whole place is clean and tidy with good amenities and facilities. The restaurant is convenient and the food was very good. Friendly and attentive staff.
All in all a lovely property that I would definitely stay at again quite happily! And especially good value for the price!

Wonderful spot just outside Kruger Park.
The staff were extremely warm and the view was stunning. Looking out onto Crocodile river we frequently had lunch looking over hippos, elephants and crocodiles.
The room was clean and comfortable and the staff were excellent in helping us organise tours. The onsite restaurant is also excellent and extremely affordable.

O local onde fica o hotel é otimo, perto de um dos portoes do kruger. Porem o hotel nao é muito confortável

Heel mooi uitzicht op de rivier!
Kamer boven was ook prima, mooi balkon.
Toen we melden dat de deur alleen dicht kon door hem op slot te doen, werd dit onmiddellijk verholpen.
