Mjejane River Lodge is a premier safari destination nestled within the Mjejane Game Reserve, a private Big Five reserve seamlessly integrated into the world-renowned Kruger National Park. Positioned directly on the lush banks of the Crocodile River, the lodge offers uninterrupted views of one of South Africa’s most iconic rivers — a natural magnet for wildlife and birdlife alike. Here, you’ll witness thrilling moments as elephants, buffalo, lions, and leopards come to drink, hunt, and roam freely in their natural habitat.
From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed into a warm atmosphere of African hospitality. Your stay begins with friendly smiles and personalized service, followed by a journey deep into the bush on exhilarating morning game drives into the Kruger National Park and exclusive afternoon safaris within the private Mjejane Reserve — all guided by knowledgeable and passionate rangers who bring the wilderness to life.
As night falls, gather around a crackling boma fire under the stars, where gourmet dinners and the distant roar of lions set the scene for an unforgettable African evening. The lodge’s elevated viewing deck and riverside setting ensure that the safari continues long after the vehicles have returned — with sightings of hippo, crocodile, and herds of elephants often enjoyed from the comfort of your room or private patio.
Mjejane River Lodge offers 17 well-appointed rooms, designed to reflect the soothing tones of the bush while ensuring a luxurious and relaxing stay. Room categories include:
– 3 Standard Double Rooms
– 7 Standard Twin Rooms
– 7 Luxury Rooms
Each room features an en-suite bathroom, air-conditioning, tea and coffee facilities, mini-bar fridge, hairdryer, and a private patio with stunning views over the Crocodile River — a front-row seat to the drama and beauty of the African wild.
Whether you’re a first-time safari-goer or a returning adventurer, Mjejane River Lodge offers a balanced blend of luxury, adventure, and serenity, making it the perfect base for exploring the southern reaches of the Kruger National Park.
Every suite and luxury room at Mjejane River Lodge offers uninterrupted views of the mighty Crocodile River, one of the main water sources attracting wildlife in the region. Wake up to scenes of elephants drinking at the water’s edge, hippos wallowing in the river, and antelope grazing along the banks — all from the privacy of your own veranda.
Step directly from your room into beautifully maintained indigenous gardens that blend seamlessly into the surrounding bushveld, offering the perfect balance between comfort and wilderness.
Guests frequently enjoy sightings of the Big Five, crocodiles, giraffes, and a wide variety of birdlife right from the lodge’s viewing deck, patios, or garden pathways — making it an ideal choice for photography enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
Every second or third night, guests are treated to a traditional Boma dinner, a uniquely African open-air dining experience complete with firelight, grilled delicacies, and the sounds of the bush at night.
To enrich your safari journey, a local African dance group performs vibrant, traditional Zulu dances during select Boma evenings (at a nominal cost). Their rhythmic music and storytelling provide a memorable window into local culture and heritage.
Thanks to its location within the private Mjejane Game Reserve (which shares an unfenced boundary with Kruger National Park), the lodge offers exceptional wildlife encounters both on guided game drives and right from your doorstep.
Mjejane Game Reserve enjoys a truly unique location — it is one of the very few private Big Five reserves that has been fully incorporated into the world-renowned Kruger National Park. With the fences between Mjejane and Kruger removed, wildlife roams freely and naturally, offering guests the best of both worlds: the exclusivity of a private lodge and the unmatched biodiversity of Kruger National Park.
This seamless integration means that game viewing at Mjejane is exceptionally rewarding, with regular sightings of the Big Five and a wide variety of other species including giraffe, zebra, hyena, hippo, crocodile, and over 500 bird species.
As part of the third-largest national park in the world, Mjejane offers access to a global safari hotspot famed for its incredible diversity of flora and fauna, diverse ecosystems, and rich conservation history.
Guests can look forward to twice-daily guided game drives, including early morning safaris into Kruger and afternoon drives within the Mjejane Reserve itself — allowing for a comprehensive wildlife experience in a low-traffic, high-sighting environment.
For serious safari-goers and first-timers alike, Mjejane River Lodge offers an unbeatable opportunity to experience Africa’s most iconic national park in comfort, style, and serenity.
