We absolutely loved the staff and the very warm welcome!! The accommodations were excellent. The food was phenomenal, and the chef even prepared delicious vegetarian food for half of our family! The airport pick-up staff was friendly and starting showing us animals as we drove from the airport to our lodging. The view of the river from our private patio was just gorgeous, and we witnessed a family of elephants coming down to the river upon arrival. The evening drive and the morning drive were perfect and we were able to see the Big 5… actually only 4 ( didn’t see a rhino) but we all learned so much! We enjoyed every moment and appreciated the parka jackets ( a very cold morning!) and mountain top break with snacks with the morning game drive. FYI: the morning and evening game drives are included with your stay. Highly recommend Leopard Sands for an amazing Kruger Park experience of a lifetime!
It’s a great place for couples, and single travelers looking for solitude. I only wish our family of four could have stayed together in one room or a two-bedroom suite. Our twin teens had their own lodge next to us, which was fine — but we just aren’t accustomed to be away from our girls when we travel abroad. Perhaps Marriott may consider a few family options for accommodation s instead of only 2 to a room? Otherwise we had a fabulous stay!

Well appointed room. Mini bar filled with soft drinks on arrival. Insect repellent was provided. Game drives were excellent. Room had a great view over the river and the resident wildlife (hippos and occasionally elephants).
Mini bar was only stocked for initial arrival. Reception were shocked that I asked for it to be refilled. This is an all inclusive (apart from alcohol) hotel. All other hotels we have stayed at which are classed as all inclusive, restocked the mini bar every day. Also, be prepared to pre-order your evening meal as you can’t decide on the night.

Everything is fantastic!! The setting, view, location, food, service, rooms are all amazing. Exceeded our expectations. Safari drives were brilliant - Jimmy was a great guide and KG and the team really looked after us at the lodge.
One tiny gripe that we booked the 5am game drive and got up ready for it - but it’s actually 5.30am.

The staff were so friendly. The rooms were lovely and immaculate, the staff were very on the ball at keeping it clean and fresh. We loved the game drives too.
Nothing other than leaving :)

The rooms were nice, the staff were very friendly. And we really enjoyed the game drive. However, there are some areas that I didn't like at all: : 1. There was hair on my breakfast twice. Which makes me lose appetite 2. And the eggs for omellette were off (rotten), smelling badly. 3. Complementary cheese board in the room, the cold meat was rotten.

This is more of a Tourist trap. For the price you could get something much more authentic and better in the park.
It is on a busy highway outside of the park. Not the bush experience you expect
