Raptor's Lodge is a deluxe, private self-catering lodge with individual cottages. Situated in the middle of the bush, Hoedspruit with good restaurants is only 5min away. As we were visiting friends we only used the one room. Although there are 2 en suite bedrooms with outside showers we were only charged for one couple. Very good double beds with mosquito... More

Arrived as expected. Note on office door. Office closed. No check in. Cleaner told us key was in the door. Went in rooms ok and clean. Went into the outside area and immediately felt hemmed in. The bush was in your face and right up to the patio area. Not impressed with extra costs for having bed linen , towels... More

We recently stayed at Raptors lodge for one night only. The accomodation is clean and spacious and well equipped if you do want to cook. There are nice restaurants very close. My only complaint is there was no hair dryer, I cannot believe a 4 star establishment does not supply hair dryers. We were on our way to a game... More

We stayed here quite a while ago but came across the photo's I had taken whilst there and just thought to share my experience of Raptors lodge in Hoedspruit. It was my first time going to the Kruger national park so we decided to find a lodge close to the gate. We managed to stay in a room that was... More

Stayed for four nights but would need so much longer to get in all the activities available locally. Lodge is self catering although there is an excellent bar/restaurant within safe walking distance. If you do want to cook the kitchen was exceptionally well equipped and there is also a braii area. Small clean communal pool on site. Ask for a... More

On a business trip in March2012 I came to stay at Raptors Lodge. In all honesty this is not so much a Lodge, it is rather more a bungalow rental place, or at least this was my impression. It did not bother me at first as I was there for work, but it being advertised as a Lodge I did... More

It was arranged during my booking that I should go to unit 16, after I unpacked I listened to my voicemail ( my phone was off during the flight and I spent the ride to Raptors chatting with my friend whom I haven't seen in ages). I was informed to go to another unit. I phoned the number left on... More
